I presume by his story that he was already 100% at fault for the accident. So it won't make any difference.
Spoiler!
Although if we refer back to our old thread on winter tires, we will learn that they wouldn't have made any difference in this instance since there is no need for winter tires in the lower mainland...
Everyone should just get winter tires. I mean seriously they can be had for like $1K, and you save yourself from wearing out your expensive all season and summer rubber. Look for that simple little misjudgement, OP wrote off a $40K+ car, and he is darn lucky nobody in his car or the other vehicle was injured or worse.
Winter tires are cheap insurance, put them on. Period.

So what was your dads reaction when you told him you wrote the car off?
im willing to bet he drives it majority of the time anyways, the cars just under his dads name for registration (and probably the insurance discount)

I wouldn't worry about all that. The thing I would worry the most is if the car was insured under your name. If it wasn't, they may try to deny you the claim and you'll be on the hook for ALL damages. ICBC is now denying claims to people who aren't properly insured. You may be able to get a lawyer to sort it out. Just hope ICBC don't chase after that fact.

...Or perhaps he was just borrowing his dad's vehicle?
That and it can still be in his Dad's name with him as the primary driver, which would be fine with ICBC.
bring the x6 by my shop, will tell u right now that its getting written off lol. ICBC usually does the estimate or investigates the damage if the fault is unclear or if damage is suspicious. Otherwise they would send it to a ICBC valet shop like mine to get the estimate and repairs done.

im curious to know how fast above the speed limit you were traveling at to lose traction.

there's stricter rules in NA to get a car back on the road as a rebuilt? Those pics are pretty scary
not too sure on the inspections done here in canada, but in the states, i read this article some time ago regarding rebuilt titles n its scary how its done,
basically, the TLDR version of it is, the inspection is done to ensure what ever parts used to rebuild the vehicle is not stolen. the inspection does not have anything to do with weather the vehicle is safe to be on the roads or not.
thats y dont ever buy a rebuilt/savage title vehicle from the states unless u know its fixed up the right way

that is 100% a write off. There is no way ICBC will repair that. Once an airbag goes off and the car is a 3-4 years old or so its almost always a write off. I learned that when my G35 got written off. Good news is ICBC is usually fair when they pay you out on the vehicle.

bmw puts summer tires on X6's or did you guys buy those tires separately? thought all seasons were put on all non-sport cars, especially crossovers/suvs
lower model mustangs come with all-seasons (including base v8)... pirelli pzero neros on my generation. not sure what they are using now

summer tires usually comes with sports package and bigger wheels, from the looks of OPs pic the car had the m sport front bumper thus the summer tires
where is OP btw?

RIP OP, I'd be on the lookout for a cheap replacement X6 before your dad comes back if I were you.
