So I have spoken to my insurance company and this isn't going to cost me anything so I likely won't be driving around to get different quotes. The service consultant at Parkview, where my car currently is, tells me there are only 2 authorized BMW repair shops in the GTA. Do insurance companies say where you can and can not go?
I am very thankful they gave me a loaner (actually had this appointment set up before I was hit because the engine light went on solid for about 3 days) but man is it gutless! The combination of less horsepower (it's a 323), bigger feeling car, and automatic transmission really takes the fun out of driving. Or...maybe I just really miss my baby
