BMW i3 as donor car?

I just checked out COPART, and it seems the i3's are being totalled for body panel damage. None had airbags deployed.
The car has a carbon fiber body. Maybe those panels cost too much, and body shops do not have methods to repair. So they get totalled easily.
The car is not a unibody, and has an aluminum frame. There is a 650cc generator onboard to make electricity if the battery goes flat.

Might be potential for a project drivetrain?
