That actually looks easily repairable. Just drill out the spot welds where the roof is attached to the c-pillars, same with the a-pillars, new windshield and interior pieces, repaint and done.

there are some issues with doing this… but it can be done… hot rod guys can chop the tops on their cars, so why cant a 3 series…

is it even an m3… if not let it go

haha, i was looking for this post

it’s just an e36 M3. they aren’t particularly rare, shit - since it’s totalled out, i’m sure he could pick up another if he really wanted. entirely not worth the work and fucked title, part it out. call it a day.

glad the dude’s alive…

Very few things on the internet now a days really make me stop and say “Holy fucking shit.” I also literally did the slow, over-exaggerated, cartoon blink thing when my brain pieced together that it was the driver posting, and not just recalling something he witnessed third-party.

OMG HE SHOULD FIX IT !!!

yea, because its totaly resonable to fix a car which basicly had its roof smashed in by a 100 pounds of metal and rubber, dont worry, im sure after a couple attempts youll get all the window frames to LOOK like they line up

youll still have a horribble wind noise from someplace you cant ID, but fuck it

a pillars - shot  
b pillars - shot  
c pillars - iffy

and if anyone thinks that swapping the roof on a new car is anythin like chopping the top on a 34 ford, you obviously have no idea how chops are done, no idea how to swap the roof on a newer car, and have never had to find a wind noise on a crash repaired german automobile
