    Very clean work. About how much did it run you for the whole swap. Is that a lift in your backyard?

                  When my S52 grows up it wants to be a S54.

                  I don't know what I'm more envious of, your car or that garage!!! Nice work!

                            Damn. I should have waited before doing my S52 swap last summer. Now I want to go S54...

                              Having done a Euro swap and an S54....the S54 is another order a magnitude in cost over any other swap if done right. The electronics that need to be addressed will cost at least $1500 and up.

                              I like the garage although doesn't it get cold in the winter?

                                You make this seem really easy.

                                Why do S54's have to be so expensive?
