Is my BMW totaled?

[wessink6]

So I totaled my first car, 2007 BMW 328xi coupe back in January... finally I snatched this 2009 really clean 328i coupe on Wednesday... I was sitting at a red light on Friday and a truck comes up and rear ends me... what luck. You guys think this is totaled? Ian hoping it's not but the tow truck guy said it might be. I'm in a stage of hoping and confusion so if ylu guys want to help me out here and try to clarify what you think is going to happen. and if it is totaled, is it worth it to fix, the wreck was not my fault , he hit a Lexus that hit me.

What does your insurance company say?

Your first link is broken, remove the "i." from the link and it will work again.
You can't really tell anything detailed from that picture. How is your rear suspension? Caved in wheels?
Your fender is obviously destroyed, but it's hard to tell if the carrier (bumper) frame is damaged..it probably is judging from the photo provided.
If the car was "crabbing" then you may have a bent frame (if that's the case I am sorry)
Keep in mind it's only a total loss if the cost of damage equals or exceeds the current value of the car. And that will really be the case if some, or most of the car's structure will be damaged in a way requiring remediation. From what I know about body work (very little mind you) this is never as expensive or as thorough as structural damage.

For your sake, and the sake of that beautiful car, I hope it's purely cosmetic. Force dissipates as it travels through media, so maybe...just maybe that Lexus cushioned your fall, so to speak.

His insurance company told him to ask the forums if its totaled or not. We have the power

edit: now that I got the pictures working - it will probably be totaled. Especially if the pass side rear 1/4 is damaged, which it clearly is. That is essentially part of the frame of the car - that, and the part of the trunk the hinge latches onto... that being that far out of alignment tells me theres a lot of metal damage underneath.
