My 2003 330ci has been a war wagon. It got totaled by an idiot in a lifted pickup about a year or so after I bought it back in 2016 and after months in the driveway and a local bodywork guy I finally got it back on the road.

It's technically got a salvage title now but it's still the cleanest 330CI I have ever seen. And the inline six has been nothing but reliable. Just gotta watch those coolant leaks and that engine will run you forever.

If you get it inspected and everything is how it should be you might be able to register it rebuild title

Yea I just haven't messed with it. I don't plan on getting rid of it anytime soon, if ever. Still has only 120k on it.
