My Ride: 2007 Titanium Gray 550i, with sport, nav, HUD, Logic7, sat radio, cold weather, rear side airbags, rear seat heaters, and it goes like a bat outta hell!
Actually, it's all part of BMW's new tech training program...first, they have to fully disassemble the vehicle blindfolded, and the reassemble the car blindfolded........it's some sort of new certification thing

Everything except the doors makes me think it was massive engine work, something that required engine removal. Either that or frame work. All those parts look absolutely pristine.
Maybe it's an upcoming episode of "Monster Garage". Hehehe.
Dunno if this show makes it outside the US...

Ahh - I didn't follow the link until just now. They "break" cars. Yeah, sorry - ignore all my previous posts.
