2015 BMW 428

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage title, with “SIDE” recorded as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive damage to the right rear side supports the unverified SIDE classification, while noting that the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The documented damage is concentrated at the right rear of the vehicle. Multiple red and black rear-bumper components are detached and lying separately, with the red bumper-cover sections showing broken edges, cracks, and missing areas. The rear bumper cover is missing across the lower rear, exposing black internal bumper components and a white mounting or support component. The right rear bumper corner also has broken or missing exterior trim and exposed internal components. The right rear quarter panel and wheel-arch area are extensively crushed, with deep creases, scuffed and chipped paint, and deformation extending around the rear wheel opening. The lower right rocker panel and side area are also deformed, with scraped paint and an irregular damaged edge below the door and ahead of the rear wheel. The extent of the visible structural-area and body-panel damage should be assessed during a thorough physical inspection, including the bumper mounts, quarter-panel structure, rocker panel, wheel-arch area, suspension, wheel alignment, and any concealed components. VIN decoding identifies this vehicle as a 2015 BMW 428i convertible/cabriolet, manufactured by BMW AG in Germany. It is equipped with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder gasoline engine; the decoder lists 241 horsepower.
