I Bought a destroyed 2018 BMW M3 Competition! Bad Financial decision?

Welcome back to the channel guys. In today’s video I take delivery of my 2018 BMW M3 competition. I recently purchased this car off of Copart auto auctions and just received it, and I have to say I am very happy with what I bought.. this is a perfect donor car to rebuild my 2016 BMW M3 and get rid of that stupid LS engine. The LS swap was a great idea but I am over it and want to move on! We stripped down the donor vehicle and got everything ready to swap over, I am converting my 2016 BMW M3 to a 2018 M3 Competition! In this video we completely stripped down the entire car down to a bare shell and in the next video we will be doing the same to my white M3. I know a lot of you guys will not be happy with me going back to stock but this is the best way to go!

Yuri and Paul.are awesome!. If this would have been the Goonz that amount of work would have been 16 videos. We'd have had giveaways, watches, bbq sauce, 6 meals, home repairs, collapsed walls, broken saw mills. They'd have had to wash it, full interior clean, start it, burn out with no oil and raffle off signed fender parts. Keep being real Yuri and family!

[@o0FranklySpeaking0o]

Agree, between the yard looking organised/ tidy and getting projects out of the way the only way is 🔝

[@KENNEY1023]

You and your brothers sure do love BMWs.

[@randymackintosh6559]

"I'm not the best rollback driver in the world!" LOL too funny...love the sarcasm and funny video segments!!! I never was into the idea of your LS swapped BMW....but DID appreciate the level of workmanship on it...sad to see it not finished.

[@CJMediaOfficial]

I love those wheels on the gray bmw, excellent choice on the engine swap man. Plus so many sellable parts on that parts car o my even the headlights are big $$$ yes yuri!

[@aaronbillbradley7343]

Yuri, what a day! I was screaming “Garage door!”, lol. You and Paul when full ham on getting the M3 deconstructed.👍🏼 Good to see Nate at the shop. Keep the m3 stock, get it going and enjoy.

[@MrHuismeester]

Nice project !!! Glad to see the BMW back to original and like you said that engine is looking almost brand new !!!! Wish all the success you need when you are switch the engines !!

[@user-lw7mw1cj5k]

Putting your car back to a BMW makes it more valuable as the BMW crowd aren't interested in LS motors. If you want to sell it after conversion depending on how cheap you got the motor you stand to make a tidy profit. As the car was "certificate of destruction" that kept all the rebuilders out of the bidding and the salvage guys watch their margins so you were in the right place with the right car. Congratulations.

[@23RD]

I agree it will be worth more back to stock

[@CigarsnWhiskey]

It's your build make it what you want. Haters going to be haters no matter what. Love the videos bro.

[@recruitmentwebsites]

Glad to see the BMW back to original

[@imfloridano5448]

Keep pumping out this content Yuri it's all educational and believe it or not is relaxing. It settles my restless mind as a retired veteran that wished I had 1/5 the talent when it comes to working with crushed metal panels and frames

[@tseland]

That cat is too funny. Still laughing when I think of him falling backwards in that tiny box in the last video.

[@chrishovanetz8999]

You dont do anything easy, impressive as usual !!!!!

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

Yuri’s BMW chop shop 😂😂 lotta work in a short space of time pretty impressive ! Be interesting to see how quick it can be put into the white one …good job this channel always has great content 👍

[@JRs-Garage]

Well yuri that a lotta work, reminds me of what Ben went through with his car 😉👍🏻 I’m excited to see this project get finished

[@curtismagas9343]

[@f32440i]

Yuri is the funny one Paul is the sensible one and Ben is the happy go lucky one

[@ssom7291ify]

Awesome car!!

[@tomswindler64]

You’ve got a lot of work to do on the bmw, best move in the long run.just take your time,don’t get into a rush,do it right.great little video as always 😎😎😎👍👍👍

[@disty8380]

This is going to be a fun one

[@jayonbikes4271]

Those carbon fiber strut brace🔥

[@caseyspeer8179]

Maybe one day you'll be the one to get that LS in a BMW. I was hoping it was going to be this time but maybe next time you are smart enough to get it done be the first

[@Timrsnakess]

Sweet lots of good parts to pick from especially that motor

[@bobmanzi7712]

great stuff guys thanks

[@douglasmiller1467]

That's a nice project.

[@edmundvanrooyen2324]

Glad you are going back to original and getting the white car going again

[@chrisbriggs6721]

This is all round a good idea putting bk too stock also the shell good for frame work parts for future repairs

[@johnfoy310]

I’m not a hater ! Good luck with the Frankenbeemer I’ll be watchin ✌️👊

[@johncorvil]

I'm glad you found your barber 😂

[@The300ZXGuru]

this brings back some serious memories when i use to work at a chop shop down in Miami FL. you guys really know how to tear apart a car. the guru approved lmao

[@adrianowen6524]

Nice work man, that l,s swapped BMW would have been killer aswel but back to OEM nice to man like that front bumper makes it look aggressive a,f man, looks like your whole family are osome when it comes to putting cars back to gather bro keep up the good work guys love sitting down and watching yous on different channels man between yous I pass hours keep them coming!. 👌👌💪💪💪👍👍👍👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@FlyEaglesFly19111]

Great job EVERYONE!

[@patchmack4469]

good ol Yuri, your only human mate, think we all done that with the roller door, i clouted one with a forklift, put a small dent in it, after that, the door is either open or not, never operate the forklift with the door not being fully open, it becomes the main rule, but my boss had a go, and a few weeks later he did the same thing, and near ripped the door off, he was not a happy bunny, trying to tell me, well its his door, (except it isn't because he rents the building) but guess who saved the day and fixed it at no cost cat had to be male, he likes cars man

[@dickdegraaff5452]

Dear Yuriv, This grey destroyed 2018 BMW M3 looks absolutely very bad but using the engine for the white BMW on the car lift isn’t a bad idea at all. I look forward to your next vlog and send you love from the Netherlands

[@erichbaumgartner6391]

This is going to be a good one

[@johndemeen5575]

Them BMWs veer off the road easy. St.Paul,Minnesota.

[@RK-dl8iw]

The way you boys stripped that Beamer down reminds me of that Nicholas Cage movie Lord of War where the Africans strip that huge arse plane down to its bones 😂 😂

[@23RD]

I love that movie!

[@jonathanluce9130]

Cat was kinda looking forward to seeing the LS in action..

[@marc5460]

tnx for the video

[@gezdipz5425]

Looks in better shape than mat Armstrong's 👌

[@mikemissel7785]

Cat is the boss of the shop and expects you to listen to him.

[@marc5460]

Paul can work really quickly

[@TommyAlanRaines]

I was wondering if you would end up going back to the BMW engine! I would be one of those wanting a BMW engine lol. Keep Orange Crushing It!

[@Ninoy2059]

I think you got yourself a Bargen. I am sure you can fix this one. Best of luck

[@suecobandito8954]

Wheels are the part of your vehicle your tire is mounted onto, while the rim is a part of the wheel that holds the tire in place.

[@phillipward8776]

Smart move! Keep your BMW all BMW. If you want a place to put that LS buy a 2002 Z28. I'd sell it to someone with an s10.

[@Mdunning]

Would of liked to have seen the V8 running but I do think this is the best option. 👍 You need to buy front end crashed car now to use the part car body 😂

[@ahsank3277]

Got interesting when you mentioned hot glue pulling on that quarter panel but it went all downhill when you said parts car.....

[@angelmorales220]

Love BMW. You'll get it done in a second.

[@DonnieWon]

yuri - you must be loaded to afford all these projects. i wanna get like you one day

[@willemp6432]

Pre face lift. 👍👍👍

[@paulhendrickson5233]

Great content!! Learning a lot from y’all. Keep up the great job, especially miss gendering the 🐈‍⬛ 😂

[@23RD]

They where too small when I checked 🤣

[@rsw9480]

Were to buttons missing off from the Steering Wheel Controls, I didn't see them ??

[@glen511]

I am going to be a little different. LS swap was looking good. 😢 Anyhow, now you need another project for the LS to go in.

[@loneric550]

Not bad for $10,800 purchase w/ 54K miles

[@BMattWill]

Send me that LS, I'd hate for it to take up valuable room in the shop.

[@user-ds1nb9sg6n]

Cant wait to see the transformation...hope you took the carbon roof off

[@martinculjak16]

Name him Felix the cat it was a cartoon show that I grew up on he had a bag of magic tricks

[@Ameyzinng1]

Any update on G-Wagon Bro??

[@douchedidit9222]

Everyone is family lol and first name is BIG LOL

[@jasonmart1081]

How come you've stopped doing the BMW LS conversion? 🤔

[@jermainewillis6969]

Lmao 😂😂😂😂😂 I like your energy you are winning already

[@markallshouse3659]

LS engine is better than any BMW engine all day long, you should leave the LS in it.

[@rbiamby]

You are too funny, you should collaborate with Rich Builds. That would be so entertaining.

[@frankleonard6570]

Im curious, why give up on the v8 LS conversion?

[@Scyllx]

What is happening with the truck rear wheel at 5:45 ? lol

[@jct300m]

Why the switch from the LS Swap??

[@Wilco1205]

Come on man leave the LS engine in the BMW! Who cares about the value of the car? It matters more what makes you happy 😊

[@Marbeary]

Meanwhile ben has a huge BMW logo in his shop better buy for your dad's shop as well.

[@Vetteman372]

You did all that work to put that LS in And now you're going to put a BMW motor back in it. It's kind of backwards, I think. your car. Good luck with it. I guess if you're going to sell it, it's a smart note and put the other motor in it. But. I would prefer the LS all day.

[@Mtech_garage]

You could fix that bad boy

[@Mtech_garage]

Nvm 🤣

[@23RD]

😂

[@RexRogers_]

Hopefully they engine didn’t run at all after its oil cooler smashed

[@disty8380]

1:22 factory finish on that bumper is trashhhh lmao

[@MS-hd8yq]

Chop til ya drop

[@disty8380]

I want an M3 so bad lmao

[@Private011]

That thing is fucked. Nothing you can’t handle though Yuri.

[@gregbyrn]

Ha ha…Bull in a china shop strikes again. This time it was the oil cooler and shop door that suffered!

[@douchedidit9222]

Webber carbs sooo maybe

[@mattcurtis6481]

Surely you could repair that BMW??

[@douchedidit9222]

That’s rated M for your MOM 🎉

[@ThatGuysChannel4Whatever]

Kat!!!

[@nissmoguy]

[@nathansee5104]

Going back to all BMW is a great idea. LS motors suck.

[@patrickoutlaw6462]

at least the wheels are cool...

[@user-ds1nb9sg6n]

Lmfao @ more crooked then your local police chief...

[@Fabulousprofound168]

They took the switchgear from the steering wheel wtf is up with that?

[@douchedidit9222]

Wheel

[@bobbyserchion]

A dog you guys are family an I hope you stick too that 😊😂😮

[@johnluke3425]

Yeah. It might be smarter to go back with this factory b m w but it still makes you a quitter

[@basscomander6348]

[@jamesbergeron8356]

Good to see the old Beamer getting some love. At least you aren't abandoning it like someone we all know...

[@rickhill789]

[@imfloridano5448]

Matt channel from the UK has a red bimmer with similar quarter panel damage. He cut the quarter before they did a pull to align the door area. Matt and hos father also fix them together

[@SalvageMasterEssex]

Don't confuse these guys with that idiot Matt Armstrong....23rd actually know how to repair cars the right way 👍👍

[@nicolasstanco6368]

Do the brothers love tacos?

[@miketyler4536]

Mat Armstrongs is way worse, game on my friend

[@buby58]

We want the G Wagon We want the G Wagon We want the G wagon. Stop messing about with other projects, commit and tackle the G wagon!!!!!

[@LeLOUISE1]

toi tu es competition man

[@Minto107]

Why would this have a certificate of destruction. It’s very fixable

[@23RD]

Florida is super weird like that, they do it all the time.
