So your beautiful BMW 440i Individual Finally Arrived..

IK6SPEED · 10-17-2018, 10:08 AM

So after a LOOOONNNNGGGGG extended wait to build, your beautiful F36 BMW 440i Individual Finally arrives (not mine, btw).

Beautiful Individual Citrin Black Metallic (X02) paint with Individual Golden Brown Merino Leather (ZAG8) on the seats, dashboard and even extended leather on the doors.

You did your 1200 mile service and loved your car.

Then 400 miles later, you do this to it....

I'll take the display and HU!

Moupe · 10-17-2018, 10:27 AM

What a waste of a badass interior. Too much car for some people, or should I say too little restraint even with all those driver safety aids.

FaRKle! · 10-17-2018, 10:40 AM

What a dang shame...

So where can we scavenge parts? Haha.

Zara · 10-17-2018, 11:37 AM

Paaaaart Ouuuuuut

DrifterX · 10-17-2018, 11:56 AM

Sucks but things come n go...

cfm56d7b · 10-17-2018, 01:18 PM

What happened?

Zanity · 10-17-2018, 01:32 PM

Meh, that'll buff out. Guarantee it will be rebuilt with that mileage, I've seen worse condition ones rebuilt and restored.

Brett530 · 10-17-2018, 06:00 PM

That is tragic. Seeing something like that destroyed.
Speaking of parting out...
This was the damage to my 2012 335 and the insurance company declared it totaled. Before I had even signed it over, I went to get my stuff out of it and they had already started removing parts.
On the bright side, I'm enjoying my 340 a lot more. B58 rules!

Huh? Who was removing parts.

That's not even close to legal as you were still owner.

Besides, Insurance would sell it as salvage and not part it out. Whoever purchased in salvage auction might then salvage or part out.

Wow, they totaled it for a couple of fender, bumper, quarter panel and wheel damage ? It doesn't seem that bad at all.

I doubt you could fix it properly for 25k

Depending on when it was and how many miles it had, for a 2012, even a repair estimate of 12-15k could've been enough to deem it a total loss.

Brett530 · 10-17-2018, 09:35 PM

It had about 67k miles but repair was listed at just under $14k. Single highest priced part was adaptive HID/Zenon at almost $1400. They said the rule was above 50% of resale value. I'm sure they made out well on parts or rebranded title.

The insurance company (actually the 3rd-party adjusters) took over a month to determine the payout. When I went back to pull the piggy back tune, the door handles (CA) were gone, and a few other weird things. I bugged me to see my baby scavenged that way, but she was gone now.

The estoril blue 340 with track handling package has made her a distant memory - but I did grieve for a little bit...

how did the accident happen

I was entering an intersection at about 55MPH and a Mazda 3 coming the opposite direction took a left turn in front of me. I pitched it sideways trying to avoid the collision. I almost got parallel to his turn, but he never stopped or slowed and our front ends hit, then back ends. Both doors were untouched. I thought I had kept the damage to a minimum, but parts and labor really add up quick.
