19k for bill of sell only and flooded? Wtf dude that's crazy

I am almost 100% sure this car is the one that came from my friend's parkade here in Calgary. We had that massive flood and it was parked in the parkade. He said the water didn't go into the engine? That car was fully submerged for almost 3 weeks.

so this was the "one" in Calgary..... I can't believe the dude is saying that no water got into the engine if it is the one that was submerged. I figured with as little 1M's as there are in existence, someone would have the details...

[JustinGTP]

Yes, this must be the one that came from the Union Square Condos - 215 13th Avenue SW, Victoria Park, Calgary Alberta. I suppose there could be a possibility there was another orange 1M that was flooded, a lot of high end areas in Calgary were hit. The chances are very slim.

It parks on P2. Water was halfway up on P1. It was not emptied untill almost three weeks later. A 2012 135i was on P3 that was also submerged and totalled.

There will be mold in this car, not to mention the rust. Can't believe he's saying it's not been flooded into the engine? Look at how dirty the WHOLE car is. It was submerged! Those pics are in the same lot the 135i was in from the same building.

Not a pretty site!

Flooded isn't worth it. Electric problems or even other shit trust me.

[tigermack]

Pretty fishy to me that there's only one picture...

[litxus]

Wow, submerged for 3 weeks would be completely crap. It could be rebuilt, but you would have to take everything completely apart, dry, change fluids and damaged parts etc... Electrical stuff would be a nightmare. The only good use for this car is a donor car as you will not be able to title it in any way, hence he bought it for parts. This car would be a good fit if you had a rebuildable 1M to begin with (title and frame wise) and use parts from this one, but not at this price.

Looks like it was bought here http://impactauto.ca/ , just google the vin#.

[ZROFCKSGVN]

i wonder if submerging it in a pool of rice would fix it lol

all joking aside i would never pay 19k for a salvage car let alone one that doesnt work, engine didnt get wet my ass...then why salvage it?

[Nesquik15]

not a good deal at all, a headache at best... it doesnt even say it starts, new motor?

[BoostAddict]

Flood cars always make good race cars. No structural damage, and you always redo everything anyway. It's a good buy for someone looking for a good chassis.

one of my buddies contacted him on ebay because we live local so we wanted to have a look at it and he wouldnt let us even have a look at it. Said "not available for viewing" Definately something fishy.

Wow, that is a big red flag there. Most likely car looks like complete crap, so he might not even used the current picture (that pic looks like it is from an auction). He is probably in the process of cleaning it up / hiding all the flood mold and that is the reason he would not want anyone to see it in current state.
