I can't visualize what kind of curb would rash the fronts, miss the skirts, and also somehow do damage up in the spoke area of the rears. Was someone joyriding perhaps, and going lateral?

Because normally if you have damage on BOTH fronts and rears, you are coming in at a shallow angle. A curb would rash your rims sure, but the tires will lift your car onto the curb before the spokes are obliterated.

Tail spin...The rear bumper got damaged too.

kramerz500 · 05-12-2023, 05:07 PM

From my understanding lost the rear end came around both wheels met the curb and went over the median.

That is an impressive amount of negligence.

Looks like that dealership's not getting their 20k ADM

m2ss · 05-12-2023, 07:02 PM

They had to put cast wheels on it to offset the cost of the extra weight.

Can we get a VIN on this mishap? I imagine it won’t be appearing on any Carfax.

Lpbri · 05-12-2023, 09:35 PM

Saw this outside my local BMW dealer. Anyone care to guess what happened?

allinon72 · 05-12-2023, 09:39 PM

Fell off the truck.

E90lova · 05-12-2023, 10:53 PM

The brake caliper on the back of that M2, REALLY BMW.

This is what happens when you don’t provide forged wheels!

That’s not a bad guess because the front is whacked as well

Six speed !?

And the window sticker residue was never even cleaned off so unlikely it ever left the dealership

Someone tried to make it less ugly by crashing it?

DanG · 05-14-2023, 04:14 PM

It probably was a demo car. Looks to me that it took a big hit to a curb. Front wheels has curb rash.

m2ss · 05-14-2023, 04:36 PM

Weaker wheels on a heavier car spell disaster...

So my question since an employee did it (with TC fully off), does he keep his job?

DanG · 05-14-2023, 06:43 PM

I see that my guess on the crash was correct.
