    South Florida BMW salvage yards??

    Anyone know where I can find a junkyard with e36's in south Florida? I have been to 5 yards and not one even had any type of e36. Anyone?

    +1 on the lack of bmw in WPB. i live less than 2 minutes from both of those yards, across southern blvd, and i frequent there with friends and such out of boredom....

    Ive never seen an e36, only 1, maybe 2 e30's, and a few e28's + e34's. Never anything newer than a 1995 tho.

    +1- The Benoist yards suck. Been there several times and nothing. Found a four door that was completely gutted.

    Sorry bout the delay. I was busy with a crap load of things that took 2 weeks to get over.

    A good place to go where I know that they have a few bimmers with good parts is Gardner Auto Parts. The two guys at the front office are Buzz and Ryan, real cool guys.

    You can either give em a call for parts you're looking for and if your interested in heading down there, its on Powerline between Copans and Coconut Creek Parkway.
    Phone Number: 954-972-9407
    2090 NW 21st Street Pompano Beach, FL

    They looked like they had a good amount of 3 series, 5 series etc parts but not much 7 series since some guy has a reserve on the 2 i think left in there and i have reserves on most of the interiors lol.

    You guys might be in luck, its a big yard. If you need google map of where it is let me know. btw its not like a "you pull and then you pay yard" they pull it from their backyard etc etc. they do this to keep stuff organized.

    For two years, I have been bringing back a 1987 BMW 325i Convertible back to it's BMW Glory and I have purchased the entire front suspension (Struts, Upper Thrust Bearings, Wheel hubs etc ... etc...) and it was a cool $83 including shipping! My Vert is running like a BMW again and I would highly recommend: (They only collect USA BWM's only!)

    Bringing a thread back from the dead!
    Now that we're in 2017, here's my update.
    The two yards out on Benoits Farm are hit and miss. They used to have a lot of e30 and e36 cars, but not so much any more. The LKQ used to be a little better. The yard up on Dyer by the VA hospital usually doesn't get many BMWs any more it seems.
    The LKQ in Davie (SR7) sometimes gets 3 Series, but usually has mostly 5 Series.
    The Medley LKQ on 74th (just off 826) used to get quite a few 3 Series, but its been about 6 months since I've been in there.
    All in all, there are far fewer of the older ('80s-'90's) BMWs coming into the local yards than just a year or two ago, though the e46's and X series are somewhat common now.
