    Rear ended BMW: buy or not buy??

    Hi,

    Would you buy a nice BMW if it was rear ended??

    Here the detail of the repairs of this nice 2014 550i which has been rear ended (the repair has been done from a licensed BMW repair shop).
    To me it seems it is only the body and nothing on the frame etc.....so ok ???

    What do you think? buy or not buy?
    I suppose if "buy" then I should get the regular pricing for this car minus the cost for the repair...What do you think...

    The car is 2014 550i with 25k miles.
    The cost for the repair were around 15k US$ (CDN$19k).

    That sounds like a pretty freaking major repair if the repair total can buy a brand new car. It was also pulled which indicates serious damage. Id pass

    Why do you want this car? Is it what you can afford? If so save and buy a good used, not wrecked BMW. A tip, when you finally get in the market, go to a BMW dealer and see what they’ve had come in off a lease.

    Sounds crazy but this is the only 550i (2014-2016) in black with black leather that I could find around where I live. That’s why I am interested in that one.

    But you are right maybe the leasing 2014-2016 will come in larger number now.

    Good idea BTW with checking at the dealer what should come in soon! Thanks!!!!!
