I bought a dead $50,000 BMW i3 for $500 because the dealer gave up on it.
They said it wasn’t worth fixing.
They were ready to scrap it.
Instead, I brought it home to find out what they missed.
In this video, I tear into a neglected BMW i3 that the dealer abandoned, track down the real problem, and try to keep it alive using parts pulled from another dead i3 including a heater harvested from the donor car.
This isn’t a restoration or a full rebuild.
It’s about finding out whether a car labelled “not worth fixing” really deserves it.
Sometimes the problem isn’t the car it’s where people stop looking.
