LSB M Coupe bites the dust

[jotti]

This just popped up on the salvage auction lot in Victoria, BC:

[jotti]

One more

[f50nut]

Someone needs to save this car and tell us about it.

[BlackjackM]

Doesn't look too bad at all- cartel pricing will put it around $28,500

[JWin]

Fuck, that doesn't look that bad...

Any other information on the accident or the sell price?

[SamGrant951]

Wonder what it will sell for? Wish it was closer, would be pretty tempting.

[GB5416]

How did you find that? I can't find a link on their website.

[Jeremy]

A moment of silence for the departed, please.

Thank you.

Looks like an Estoril interior. There is only one LSB/Estoril. 5UMCN934X2LK61330

I'm a vulture. Somebody snag me that hatch and the doors. Awwww...ya know, I'll take all the panels.

No not this one, it can be saved.

Something tells me the underside of that car is TRASHED

[moonvan]

Hell that's close enough to me I could go get it

[Shoe Coupe]

go get it and report back!

[jasonmcoupe]

I live in vancouver, definitely will try and find out more! If jotti has anymore info on this let me know! Thx

I'm afraid you are right, but if anyone is close by it would be a shame not to go take a closer look.

[Sweet#2]

post up the vin # whoever goes and checks it out...

Looks like it comes with staggered cans too...

[moonvan]

Yeah just seeing how far that rear bumper is pushed in makes me think it needs a whole new trunk floor.

[amancuso]

Flood car?

[rf900rkw]

It's been thumped pretty hard in the back, and may well have been tossed over a curb or sandwiched. The front bumper isn't sitting right, the right rear has been shoved way in, and the hatch isn't lined up correctly.

[Sweet#2]

That should put the values on LSBs that are still alive at about 50k

all of the tires still have air, suggesting it probably got hit in the rear and then rear ended another car, as opposing to going over a curb, which I feel like would take a few wheels out of commission...

Yup this is exactly what I felt looking at the pictures

But there could be lots of hidden damage. Or its a gem in the rough right now, and just needs some things that are hideously expensive through a dealership but completely affordable out of pocket.

I would look at it in person if I was near it

[BMWBergy]

No airbag deployment, so that's a good sign about the force of the various impacts (save for the rear).

[jajou318]

What do y'all think it's going to go for?

I've seen cars go for super duper cheap in salvage auctions. My bet is it won't see more than 14k if it still runs.

[Sweet#2]

Does anyone know looking at the seats if the passenger side can be modified to replace the drivers side seat?

^^^If you take the seat off the solid mounting base, you can swap it onto any other base.
