    Yes, if it looks like shit nobody will care. I think it's a bit early to call it that.

      I have a hard time comparing it to Singer. Singer is taking decades worth of a platform over multiple generations and distilling each car down to the finest aspects of all those years. Even with the evolutions of the E30 M3, at the end of the day you really only have one generation to work with. So is this in large part a Sport Evo created after the fact with a turbo (which isn't in keeping with the original character of the car IMHO), and some bespoke cosmetic changes? That's how I see it. Even if I had the means, it's nothing I'd ever be interested in.

      Seems like just a lot of talk to me anyway. I'd be surprised if they do more than five of them.

        You ever heard of Alpina? Or Hartge?

        I mean it's cool in concept, I like all things E30 M3. I don't see how this is going to be much different from what's already out there, except for the carbon bits. Its too early to tell but I will be surprised if this takes off

              I stopped reading at "turbo".

                    Looks like they threw a Reiger kit on it.

                      So, like the $224,000 Piper Motorsport car, but with the s14 to keep the purists happy, what's not to like? Plus, in 36 months this whole idea will push all e30m3s above the six figure mark.

                          I'll reserve some judgement until I actually see one done.

                          Too bad you can't supply ANY E30 for this... would be kinda neat to turn a pedestrian E30 into one of these.

                            seems like lots of hype and spewing of BS to jack the price up...

                            i'm sure it will be a cool car, but it will be overpriced.
