    E34 540i vs E34 S52 swapped

    Concerning e34s, what would you rather have - a 540i, or a S52 swapped car?

    S52 swapped car would be fun and easier to work on and drink a bit less fuel....

    ....M60 a bit more difficult to work on, lots crammed in a small space, but god that sound and that torque pls.

          the m60 does not consume that much gas than you guys think. uses less fuell than the m30 e34

                the added parts of the m60 make maintenance definitely more expensive and time consuming. there are so many goddamn seals on the motor. also the i6 just fit right in, and the v8 barely fits under the hood. makes maintenance a pain in the butt sometimes. regardless, i would always choose a i6 for an 3er, and an v8 for 5er.
