Personally I'd probably keep the original drivetrain unless something fails, even then I'd only want to put something else in if I could do it without cutting up the car at all since it looks just so mint.

Jebus, I'm having flashbacks to that Ikea lamp commercial from 20 years ago.
SOMEONE GIVE IT A HOME!

I could imagine they're a nightmare to own. Also, 7000 pound towing capacity doesn't seem like a lot for a V10 Diesel? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Correct me if I'm wrong. | As TJ said, it's the chassis that's the limiting factor. Go build and price a diesel 2500 up to a 5500 and have a look at the rated towing differences; same engine across the board.

-Mark | The kit alone is worth 2-3k so 18.5 isn't out of the question if it was all original. An RS member's 325is with the same M-Tech II kit sold for 12k USD recently on BaT

As it was my car, and without knowing anything more than what's in this shitty CL ad, mine is arguably worth more given it's a two owner car with records to new, no needs, and everything was OEM.

I don't doubt that your car should've sold for more. I am merely illustrating the fact that sub-20k E30's aren't unheard of.
