Yep I saw the whole thing. Well, they refused to list it for anything other than a ridiculously low price.
I mean, the cars not a collector car, which seems to be all anyone cares about nowadays.
Resale value is all that matters to "enthusiasts."

Link to swapped LTW?

I think its always safe to assume that people who use "stock" photos for their ads are fake, its even more fake then people who dont use pictures.

Price wise he won't be getting 40K out of me... maybe 30K.

Edit: More on the price, read through both the RL and M3F threads, lots of dickriders with no money saying it's a great deal/underpriced but nobody stepping up to pay 40K... because yeah, it's not such a great deal. LTW vin or not, you're essentially buying a tracked E36 M3 w/ S54 swap. Not a bad deal if you sell the spare wheels and Motons... and the chassis/interior isn't totally haggard.

LTW carries a massive collector tax and is really only a "special" car in the USA, it pales in comparison to an E36 M3 GT, I would hazard a guess that the E36 M3 GT (3xx made IIRC) sells for much less than a USDM LTW these days.

You can find a gt for less than the LTWs, and its a superior car for sure.

Already on it dude.
How many KMS and how much you want to spend?
I found 9 to choose from. 45k up to about 85k. They have gone up about 20% in the last 6 months.

Will do tomorrow. Just about to head to bed. I'd love to see someone bring one over. I'm too invested (financially and emotionally) with my car to swap it out for something so similar.

How bout LS'd E36?

https://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/5990052758.html

I wonder how many miles they've put on the swap.

20k CAD. I don't think you'd find (certainly can't have built) a sorted S54 swap for that

EDIT: or go grab this non-m Z3 shoe in FL (roadtrip!) and I'll buy it from you after you do all the work to import it then get bored https://www.bimmerforums.com/forum/s...-Z3-Coupe-2-8L

I was asking Lauren if I could buy that shoe on the premise that the dog fits perfectly in the hatch.

The "I-Vtec Eco Boost motor" bit also doesn't sound too confidence inspiring...

not sure about the "boost" part but is this the engine that can do cylinder deactivation?
