    E30 Original or Swap - HELP HELP

    I currently have a super clean black 90 325i 5 speed
    Its a 2 owner car with 112k original miles clean title 0 rust

    There is my situation, I paid 3k for the car, I paid way more than i should have.
    I was wanting to do a full S52 swap on the car, but it took me so long to find one in this good condition and low mileage that I kinda feel bad changing it up.
    Is the swap worth it?
    Will it me more valuable with the swap or if I just keep it stock? Now and lets say 5 years from now?
    Whats better for the long term value of the car $$?

    Thanks for all the help:)

    3k is nothing for a 2 owner no rust car. Build what you want and who cares what its worth. These are e30s,.. Not a super rare classic..
    build it to enjoy. If you do it properly youll have fun and if you ever want to sell it youll recoup some of your money

      Just do what you want. No matter what you do to the car you won't get your money back out of it. A swapped e30 is worth 9-13k depending on suspension, wheels, etc, etc. An s52 swap will cost like 6k probably.

        Unless we are talking m3's, I think the e30's best value is smiles/gal.

            Ever heard the phrase to each his own? It's your car do what you want. An s52 will really bring that car to life and make it a lot of fun. Also 3k for a low mileage rust free e30 is a great deal around here thats a 3,750 to 5k car depending on its cosmetic conditon and what not.

                  Hahah no, Im from Bosnia:) Yugo is also short for Yugoslavia
                  Bosnia was part of Yugoslavia before it fell apart in the early 90s

                  But Yugos are getting popular by the day in Europe, people are tuning them same like civic and e30s they coming back lol

                    Build that shite. S5X's are fun builders and so are the m20, so keep that in mind. Post pics of the build.
