    E30 -> M6 Body Graft..

    You guys seen this?



    One of my favorite details is the hidden cage. Absolutely beautiful idea. Crazy crazy build!
    Drive it hard. Maintain it well.

        Ugh. It's scaling up all the least attractive elements of E30 styling, while leaving the better parts intact.

        Not to mention that this thing will drive like an M6, not an E30.

            Agreed, it's far from perfect. But still an amazing undertaking. I'm waiting to see the smaller details emerge. Seems like a truly unlimited budget build.

              Interesting idea, but I have a feeling the end result will look retarded and out of proportion.
              Already, the huge wheels and rocker panels make the rest of the car seem like it shrank.

                    I'm holding my opinion until the final product.

                      Their metal bodywork is very VERY good.

                          it looks sick, in a barf way

                          I can appreciate the amount of time and effort put into it though

                            It would have been better to have installed the subframes, suspension and motor into a e30 IMHO.
