I wouldn't even have posted this thread without looking at it and deciding first. Definitely something I would buy.

Seems like the same amount of work for an M5X swap.
It is not backwards, the engine and transmission comes together.Last edited by F34R; 02-01-2013, 06:50 PM.~ Puch Cafe. ~ Do business? feedback ~ Check out my leather company ~

Not a bad deal at all. Just would need some work to get it back to respectable bmw status. Air filter, colors...etc.
I'm surprised I haven't seen it on the roads locally. Our maybe I have, but it may have been a while agoRecent Rebranding!!

He bought it from MD or something, never put it on the road. Swap was already done before he bought it.Last edited by F34R; 02-01-2013, 06:53 PM.~ Puch Cafe. ~ Do business? feedback ~ Check out my leather company ~

Point taken.
However, for all teh work involved, is it not just as easy to swap in an M5X?

It might have the 265 transmission, would be insane if it has the 3pc 265 euro(I will check)Edit:has the 260/6. The B35 came in the e24 with the optional 5spd. They are hard to find in any of the e28/34(260/6) and e24s.

It was literally listed for like 6 months price slowly dropping each time untill it was eventually 2500 Obo that's when a friend of mine seriously considered buying it and then the owner flakedShawn @ Bimmerbuddies

Would have been a good buy. Should have sprung on it. Late models for sub 2k and m30 swapped at that.
If it was a cleaner platform you could have just swapped everything over from your sedan.
Heat wrapped intake is a plus right?Late model granitesilber 325i convertible FS:
