2019 BMW 440I Gran Coupe

The auction record identifies this vehicle as having a salvage title with “FRONT END” listed as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible missing and detached front-end components support the FRONT END damage code; however, salvage-title status cannot be confirmed from photographs alone. The front end has extensive visible damage. The front bumper cover, grille, lower fascia, and associated trim are missing, exposing the radiator/intercooler area, cooling assembly, and internal mounting components. Both front headlamp assemblies are absent, leaving open mounting areas at the left and right front corners. Multiple plastic and metal components are detached or hanging below the exposed cooling assembly. A detached bumper cover, one headlamp assembly, underbody panels, plastic trim, and other front-end parts are shown placed on the ground beside the vehicle. A moderate dent and crease are visible on the left rear quarter panel above and forward of the rear wheel opening. The findings do not establish the condition of the engine, cooling system, structural components, electrical systems, airbags, suspension, steering, or drivetrain. A thorough physical inspection and testing will be required to identify hidden damage, determine which parts are repairable or missing, and assess whether the vehicle is operable.
