2016 BMW 535I XDRIVE

The auction lists the vehicle’s condition as “Clear” and its primary damage as “Front End.” Stage 1’s assessment states that the visible evidence supports the Front End damage classification but contradicts the Clear condition designation, as extensive front-end components are missing or detached. The vehicle has significant collision damage to the front end. The front bumper cover and fascia are absent, exposing the radiator assembly, lower cooling components, mounting areas, and wiring. The central BMW kidney grille and surrounding trim are also missing, and the right-front headlamp assembly is absent with its wiring and mounting area exposed. The hood is detached and lying separately from the vehicle. Additional detached parts include the front bumper cover, BMW kidney grille, lower grille pieces, bezels, plastic fascia components, underbody panels, and wheel-well liners. The underbody and liner panels have torn, irregular edges. Several wiring harnesses and electrical connectors are hanging loose across the exposed cooling assembly and lower front area. The VIN decodes as a 2016 BMW 535i xDrive sedan, manufactured by BMW AG in Germany. It is equipped with a 3.0-liter, six-cylinder gasoline engine rated at 300 horsepower and all-wheel drive. Two NHTSA recalls are listed for this model year and vehicle line. Campaign 15V718000 concerns the left-rear child-seat lower anchor, which may be bent and prevent proper engagement; inspection and repair are provided free of charge if required. Campaign 16V914000 concerns seat-mounted side-airbag inflator initiators that may fail to ignite, potentially preventing deployment; replacement of the airbag modules is provided free of charge. Recall completion should be verified by VIN before purchase.
