2016 BMW X5 SDRIVE35I

The auction record lists the vehicle as **Salvage** with **Left Side** as the primary-damage code. Stage 1 reports that the visible damage is instead concentrated on the **right rear quarter panel and right rear bumper corner**, contradicting the stated Left Side code. Stage 1 also notes that the Salvage status cannot be confirmed from exterior photographs alone. The documented damage includes a moderate inward dent and surface deformation across the right rear quarter panel, above and behind the wheel arch and extending toward the rear lamp area. Multiple dark linear scuff marks and transferred material are also visible on the right rear quarter panel and right rear bumper corner, with localized paint abrasion. The available findings do not establish the condition of hidden structural components, suspension, wheel alignment, lighting, or internal bumper parts; these should be checked during a physical inspection. The VIN decodes as a 2016 BMW X5 sDrive35i sport utility vehicle, built in the United States. It is listed with a 3.0-liter six-cylinder gasoline engine and a 300-horsepower rating. Drive type and transmission details were not provided by the decoder. The supplied NHTSA recall records include campaigns for specific diesel-powered X5 xDrive35d vehicles and for the X5 xDrive40e plug-in hybrid, rather than the decoded gasoline sDrive35i configuration. Recall applicability and completion should nevertheless be confirmed with BMW using the VIN before purchase.
