    E30 S52 Touring or a 911?

    Currently have a 91 touring with S52 as my summer daily driver. Love 911's and I get to enjoy them through a couple friends. Thinking of make the switch. If I do go to a 911 it would probably be a 964.
    Also what's a reasonable price for a swapped touring
    What say you internet?

    10,000.00 in good condition IMO, i just mentioned seeing one go for around 10K a little over a year ago with a euro S50 and all done up on another post not half hour ago lol weird.
    good luck with your 964 they are great cars, im actually looking to get one myself once my other project is finished.
    im looking to do a 1965-72 back date on it, what are your plans.

            993 was actually the last aircooled if I remember right.

            Also, that's not JUST a swapped touring, Mtech II and 5 lug as well from the looks of it.

            For instance I've got a really clean '92 cabrio with BBS and hardtop + tons of new parts with 78k listed for $10k and I expect to see somewhere close to that.

            I'd put a 15k price tag on it at least and camp on it till you find the right buyer. You're not going to get a decent 964 for under 20-25k and after you get out of this touring you're not likely to own another again so I'd stay at the top end of the market.

              911. The answer is always 911 if you have the money. 964's are not my favorite, though. An earlier SC would be beautiful. 993's are too smooth looking. 930 = Greatness.

                Just keep the E30 Touring and get a VW Beattle with the extra money you save, they are exactly the same as a 911 just cheaper.

                      LOL

                      My vote is keep the touring they're stupid rare and that thing is cherry by the looks of the pictures. Save up and buy a P car when you can.

                        I currently have an s50 swapped touring, and there isnt much I would trade it for. After having driven an e30 m3, I don't think I'd do that trade (blasphemy i know).

                        When completely stock, my insurance company valued the touring at 15k. I tend to agree with the 15k price tag, depending on the goodies you have on/with the car. Tourings in NA are rare, let alone one with a desirable swap already done.

                        I hope you get 30k for it and set a benchmark for mine :P

                          FYI I've heard of m52 swapped tourings going for more than 10k.

                            you can import them legally to the USA now, so the rarity could decline, but I'd imagine many of the ones left in Germany to import are rusty piles of shit by now. plus it's still expensive to ship an entire car, so it's not like you'll see them everywhere any time soon.

                              This.

                              It has been legal to import them to Canada for a few years now, and apparently there are only about 15-20 country wide.
