Damn. That is heartbreaking to see. I hope that you are ok and no one was injured.

As long as you're ok, you can look on the bright side... time to go car shopping!

Again, hope you're OK
Enjoy shopping.

From the owners manual

Electronic unlocking of the transmission lock

General information

Electronically unlock the transmission lock to maneuver vehicle from the danger area.
Unlocking is possible, if the starter can spin the engine.

Engaging selector lever position N
1. Depress the brake pedal.
2. Press the Start/Stop button. The starter must audibly start.
3. Press and hold the selector lever into position N.
A corresponding Check Control message is displayed.
4. Press the selector lever again into position N within approx. 6 seconds.
Position N is displayed in the instrument cluster.
5. Release brake, as soon as the starter stops.
6. Maneuver the vehicle from the danger area and secure it against moving on its own.

Above only works if there is power.
If the battery disconnected due to the impact the only was is via a manual release button from below the car that requires bottom covers to be removed. Not something you can to on the road.

Older BMW's had a slot by the transmission selector where a emergency tool could be fitted to disconnect the transmission.

Ahh yes the battery disconnected - wow underneath the car, never woulda found it haha... thanks for sharing.

I'm still struggling trying to find a dealer proactive enough to do the MSRP*.92+(Options*.91) algorithm or for ED MSRP*.92*.93+(Options*.91).... or I'll get a phonecall and ask for the quote but not hear back from them... why is this so bloody hard to order a new car?! My old sales guy who ordered it via e-mail no longer works for BMW... would like to have the car before 2017 rolls around...
