It is indisputable evidence that their action has caused your financial damaged. Just explored the option.
BMW offered me $23k for them to take the car off my hands. That would only leave 2k in my pocket and no car to drive in the mean while when searching for a car. With that I will be losing out on a 4.8is that is not easy to find. They originally were going to rebuild the engine but the cost was greater than the car value. The same goes for getting a new engine ( but they don't have a new engine to replace it with) this is why they sought out a used engine.

Because this Is an asset there isn't much more they are required to do other than paying market price for a pay out or fixing the problem. Also there is no compensation for some thing like this (ex. Pain and suffering).
