I Hope each one of you amazing people had an amazing Christmas!
Gt3 m4 build 😅
Same to you and yours
Dont do a "conversion" like Goonzquad! Hahaha.
Yo from San Diego California
Hope u and your family had a great Christmas and happy new year
I like the fact that Ben gets to work on vids and not try to sell you something the entire time 😆
Love the content per usual!!
Agreed, and no silly raffles to boost merch sales. Ben keeps it real.
@@chriscut the other channel used to be real :( not even fun to watch anymore
Yep, so true!
I dont think I have ever heard Ben trying to sell merch !
Agreed. He'd the best, so he sells with his actions and not his words. So many comments of guys who have been doing this for 800 years and they bow to VTuned.
Bro, you got this. I know it's been a bunch of rough surprises, but we all can't wait to see how epic she is when she's done. Keep up the great work!
A Mishimoto oil cooler is going to be way stronger than OEM. They make a skid plate too that protects the cooler from damage. Also, the reason the original owner likely kept the ECU is because you have to send the ECU out of the country to get it unlocked before you can tune it. That process is expensive and takes a good amount of time.
Like sauce and 250x entries?
Mishimoto is crap actually ;)
Yep agree with this, you just pay for a name that does not actually perform very well, been through a couple where they just leak@@Nakinakpgm
They did get scammed on that Camaro SS with a junk truck motor.
@@NakinakpgmWhat brand would you recommend?
Big thanks to all the videos you've posted in 2023 Ben, they've been awesome and can't wait for what rebuilds 2024 brings 💪
Another exciting rebuild. Big up to Vtuned garage for incredible content 💯
I’m sure someone has mentioned it but the ECU was taken because it was probably bench unlocked. On the G80-82 the ecu needs to be sent out (to Europe I believe) so the old owner is likely planning on putting it into their new insurance replacement.
That's exactly what happen, Cost to much money to unlock the ECU
He was most likely running a Femto unlocked ECU, and he pulled it to sell, or to use on his replacement G8X. There's still currently no one in the states that's able to unlock these ECU's, so you gotta pay $1-2k to ship them out for unlocking, plus whatever you pay for the tune on top. Lots of G8X guys also need and want backup ECU's, so they don't mess with their stock ones. Anyway, wish you luck and excited to watch this build. 🤙
Awesome as usual!
Hope you and family have a great New Year!!
I owned a g80 and I’m an estimator at a BMW certified collision repair shop in Nashville. I’m telling you know this is just going to get more expensive and the strut tower is cast aluminum. If cracked you can’t really fix it right we have to replace a lot of them. Not trying to rain on your day but wishing you good luck and hope you make best decisions.
Merry Christmas Ben , thanks for all the great videos this year dude . I can’t stand those Matt paint jobs always looks like a cheap wrap to me shame on such an expensive car ! Looking forward to seeing you rebuild this 👍
Watching your content is satisfying i really like how you start working on every single project immediately from part 1 😍
This is amazing!! So exciting to see you tackling this build. The spec on this M4 is just stunning. I can never get myself to like that front bumper but still excited to see you working on this and brining it back to its original perfection. Just noticed the DME is missing, ugghh that’s going to be a painful buy.
Best of luck bud.
Nice an m4 can't wait to see the progress on it no doubt you will kill it with the content on this vehicle yet again dude
merry christmas buddy, keep up the great videos, learned alot watching your rebuilds great stuff
VUTNED, I AM REALLY PROUD OF WHERE YOU HAVE COME FROM AND HOW HARD YOU WORK. I ALSO APPRECIATE THAT YOU DON'T DRAG OUT YOUR VIDEOS. YOU GET THE CAR AND GET STRAIGHT TO WORK. NO BORING VIDEOS SPENDING THE ENTIRE TIME SHOWCASING THE CAR. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK, WE ARE WITH YOU!
STOP YELLING 😂😂
Wow, you've really got yourself a lot of work. I can't wait to see more videos of the repair. I'd also like to know whether the repair costs are worth it.
Good luck with the rest of your work.
I can't wait to see the result.
Since my English is not so good, I wrote the text with Deepl and had it translated. Sorry for that.
I also wish you a happy new year.
Hang in there😊
You did very well. Actually better than allot of commenter who speak english as their native language. Happy New Year.
@@bryduhbikeguy Should be 'English' mate!
Hi Ben.. As an English dude I cannot believe I’m saying this.but I’m so happy your doing another German car.. I’m really looking forward to you taking it out for a full foot to the floor spin 👍
Looks like previous owner did that and it didn't end well 🤣🤣
Feel for you man !! I bought a front end damaged Aston ! When it arrived from Copart the gearbox was in the boot ! When I say the gearbox ! It was a gearbox that was toast !! That was 6K I didn’t see coming !!
Nothing surprising about overlooked damage, the missing ECU is really an unsuspected loss. I feel your pain…
Looking forward to the end result on this build! The frozen paint is a bit of a pain, get a good ceramic coating on it as soon as you can and it will help with stains. As for the DME (ECU), assuming the previous owner is getting a replacement M4, they could have had a JB4 installed in the wrecked one and wanted to take the next step in the replacement car and snatched the DME out to send to FEMTO for unlock. The DME unlock is an expensive and time consuming process, so having a backup DME is not a bad idea. I hope you can find a used one, my understanding is that it is expensive to replace. Good luck!
you honestly think he's going to repaint that thing the original color? i'm thinking by the time he's ready to paint he's going to have so much money into this thing he's gonna go with the cheapest paint he can find. jeez what a money pit its turning into
@@gregh7457he can wrap it frozen white. Cheap and saves original color
@@gregh7457 Seems like any german car is a money pit and unreliable ! But always helps if you can fix them yourself !
@@tnolan3176Agreed, when he’s taking the front apart there are a million little plastic pieces that you just don’t see on something like a Mustang. It’s like they go out their way to make them complicated.
I hope that you can move forward with this built. The $ signs are adding up pretty fast & if you can resale it to make decent profit once you had some fun with it. Maybe the paint job is something to rethink about because of the satin finish.
Great video Ben,few set backs but remember,if you want it bad enough,you will bite the bullet.with your talent I sure you will overcome the problems.great job👍👍👍😎😎😎
Let me know when it’s ready for paint 😉
V, this one’s gonna be a beast to fix. We all know you can do it tho. Looking forward to watching this series!!
I absolutely love the work that you do rebuilding them wrecked cars , keep up the good work lad
Looks like a nice project. Too bad for the missing ECU, but maybe it is still hidden in the car somewhere.
😂😂😂 yeah right
Or hopefully the previous owner still has it and he can gift it back to V-tuned!!
Probably took the ecu out as he had a tune on it
That the insurance company wouldn’t like.
Yeah, right.. maybe Santa will come deliver it as a late Christmas surprise 🙄
@@Warex06 HaHaHa
This colour would look amazing on your build Mustang. I love that front bumper. True fabrication.
Looking forward to seeing your progress with this car!
Great video. Thank you for sharing.
Yes. A video from the king. Thank you ♥️
Excited to see this come together! Just please stay away from the clickbait "I got scammed" stuff. This was a completely smashed vehicle bought at auction... it is what it is. Maybe go with something like "worse than I thought"
He did get scammed because parts were stolen off of the car.
when u buy an entire car you don't expect the previous owner to steal the ECU worth THOSANDS from it.
Agreed. (It’s enough with Backyardboyz always getting scammed)
Great work Ben, love the “never give up” spirit
Merry Christmas Ben, looking forward to this build seems like this one is going to be a challenge but your skill is strong ……… lol
Well done! Your videos are great!!!
Beautiful car 🙌🏼 the big black rear spoiler from BMW would look sick on this car though
I do believe VTuned could repair anything like new or better.
Always look forward to your videos. You never disappoint.
Thanks Ben for an amazing video again!!! Watching your job is such a pleasure!!! You are superb Talented young person!!!
Greetings from Poland 😉😉😉 i
Happy New Year man,look forward to seeing what you got coming
Even if it was tuned would be worried about extreme engine damage. Not good no ecu usually means the original engine most likely blew up and they put a junk engine inside the car here is what you need to do.
1. Check the engine mounts
2. Check the bolts around the transmission
Straight to work no sweepstakes no merch ad only pure rebuild love the content keep up the good work
Crazy how much knowledge u have… always top content.
U should do a giveaway with 1 of ur rebuilds..❤
Great video! And keep pushing on!
Really Looking forward to seeing you rebuild The BMW ❤️❤️
Don't be discouraged man keep pushing
Hang in there buddy.. we'll keep watching.
Nice content keep it up and have a good new yr coming up
I like the way you work on your projects. I think this car was tuned and so the owner can use it in his next car, maybe it is that the insurance company did not see tuning.
If you decide to repaint you should do another individual color!
Great car Ben! It wil be amazing!
Ben, I know you will make this car look like new. It is pretty cool! Way more work than I would want to do. Happy New Year to you and family!
Nice subtle diss ben will have this done in 2 weeks
Wow looking forward to this rebuild 👍👍👍
Can’t wait to see how this comes out. S58 is by far the best engine BMW has came out with. The previous owner probably took the DME out because he probably sent it off to Femto to get unlocked and wanted it to code and put into another BMW
S65 better
Just call the first owner, and ask him about the ECU, simple as that.
My Be In Jail
Lol. He'll be lucky if he can find the previous owner's info. YT publicity might help these cases.
Its not easy to find a previous owner when you buy car from auction, because usually it’s the insurance company that sells the vehicle and not the owner.
@@Eli-jah098POMB = Piss Out My Bottom!!
I found my salvage owners info in the car stereo. It had his phone book programmed. I said, call home... I was able to get extra keys, owners manual etc....
You can do it bro. Waiting for the next part 😊
Hello buddy hope you had a Merry Christmas and glad to see you,,, great video
Good luck with your new project and I wish you a Happy New Year 24 🎇🎆💥
I was hoping you'd reappear soon. This one will be worth some good money when you get it done, though you will need to invest quite a bit of money and time. Good luck and I hope you don't have any more surprises.
La M4 est vraiment endommagée et le vol de l’ECU une vraie surprise 😮 courage Ben 👍
great video like always ....shout out my friend from the island of Puerto Rico.......
Looking forward to this build!
I admire Your optimism, keep it up :)
Damn that sucks with the ecu but this build will be great when it’s done just keep pushing through and look at the bright side
These BMWs will be nightmares to own in 5 years.
If anyone can fix that panel is You.
Amazing build
Gorgeous Gorgeous M4 Comp! Can't wait to see how this turns out. Don't think I've seen any of the YT rebuilders, Goonzquad/Uncle Rich/Samcrac, repaint a matte/frozen color.
I am watching you from South Africa 🇿🇦
We love you ben.keep going.
Really looking forward to this one. Can't wait to see the finished build!
Nice car man love it
Damn man that sucks! Sometimes you win sometimes you lose with copart! Loving the videos, fingers crossed you can get a new ECU 🤞
This build is going to be insane! You gotta keep this one.
Nice Video!! Maybe you could make the headlights yellow, this looks very nice. And you have to convince Simeon and Elezar to get a BMW too. Maybe an f82 m4 or m2 g87/f87.
@@sys-administrator yeah but I would like to see a real bmw
What a mess!! Good luck with your M4 Ben!
If anyone can fix it you can!
Very nice build to start the year bro amazing content, happy new year from Mauritius island 🎉
Mega build. Let's see how it goes.
Looks like this will be an interesting build 👍😎🙂 shame about the ECU 😬
This is going to be a great build! As far as the ECU, any chance it was on the backseat floor boards or the trunk??? I’m sure you looked, but just checking. It’s an exciting build but it’s a real bummer that someone would have taken that out. I don’t know what all is involved in a tune. Ben I hope you and your family had a great Christmas. Hang in there, brighter days are ahead. See you in the next episode.
The old owner probably kept the ECU, I’m guessing it was unlocked and they might use it for another M4 or sell it… it takes a while to unlock the G8x ECU and one of the only options is sending it to Finland which takes time and isn’t cheap
Finland? Why@@m_moves
If you crash a car and unbolt the ecu, It's probably to take it out keep it. Not much reason to unbolt it like you're trying to fix something.
Unless... Does BMW do some kind of disabler with the Gauge cluster. like VW does? Maybe it? Wouldn't be worth anything without the Gauges to match it? But then maybe they don't know this or maybe they can program around it.
Thanks for the help understanding this. I appreciate it.
The big problem with buying cars at auction is that "selling as is" does not mean being in perfect condition since it arrived at the yard to be put up for sale. Between the event location and where the car is located, things can happen along the way. So much so that the car came without keys, without ECU, which justified the "attractive" price. I won't stay if someone shows up wanting to sell something on eBay. Maybe it's even the former owner of the car.
Hope you had a great Xmas,check in the car for extras lol.
Keep the great content coming 👌
Very niceee🎉🎉🎉🎉 i can’t wait the finish
Good luck on the repairs
V tune should be at 1M subs , come people
Keep your head up Ben!!!!!!!
2020+ bmw ecu is locked from factory. if you unlock it bmw will know when its taken in for service. you can get another ecu unlock it and clone it and then tune it. if you go to the dealership you just swap ecu to keep waranty. good luck with the build.
Great new project! Hope the ECU is in the trunk!
This will be interesting Ben. Looks like an easy guess on how the accident happened. Someone caught the rear quarter and pushed it into oncoming traffic???
Is this a seller or a keeper? Looking forward to the adventure.
Cheers, Bob.
Cool 😎. Let’s go Ben !
Awesome a new build let's go I can't wait to see what mysterious hidden damage and the transformation and when it hits the street for its first drive .
Amazing work 🤝🤝
Merry Christmas v. Love the videos
That transition in the beginning was too smooth sir
Nice to see a channel stay the course.
No houses, vacations, watches or sauces. 👍
Right
I do agree with u to some extent,the goonies do waste a lot of money which I dilike.,but as far as their promo sauces ,watches etc is concerned,u have to understand that almost all You- tubers rely on their content as a source of income,and I think its unfair of u to limit people to only videos,making all this content takes money,so they look to other sources to boost their cash flow.If u dnt like it then dnt watch them,but dnt break ppl down.
@@elyaaskarbelkar4572 Thanks for the valuable life advice.
I'm sorry you can't handle differing opinions.
Merry Christmas. Have a great New Year. All the best.
My my vtuned looking THICK for the holidays
keep up the hard work Ben, love the new project. I would change color
I like your honest videos
Big fan of you brother. Love from INDIA🇮🇳 ….!!!!
I like the way you show doin the work unlike others
I would be so pissed about the ecu too bro! I'm sure your gonna do An amazing job on this project like you do on all your other projects!
