Totaled M3 - Are you guys trying to repair this?

No insurance does that. They'll pay you out a few grand less than whatever the total loss would have been.

That'a not correct. Hagerty agreed value policy will pay out what you agreed to, and will let you have the car under "cherished salvage" clause for free.

Perfect car for part out or donor for E46 M3 Touring conversion!

Exactly what happened to me but with a M2CS, now a F81 M3 Touring was made.

This is how I bought my salvage e46 over a decade ago. Then rebuilt it a second time after even worse damage to the driver side apron. Do I have any regrets? No, especially as a then-teenager who couldn't otherwise afford a clean example of a car like this. Have I had any issues with structural integrity or insurance or registration? No, just very slight imperfection with the hood/fender gaps that doesn't bother me enough to correct it. But would I do it again? No. I'd sell/keep for parts and buy myself an un-compromised car.

I appreciate all the responses. I’ll be making a part out post this weekend most likely. Time for a fresh start

Can be fixed but M3 specific parts are getting more outrageous by the day. I'd use genuine BMW as much as possible to retain as much value as you can.

Yea but if it comes w/ salvage title not sure how much value you're going to retain.
