M3 Convertable

[ddongbap]

BTW, he had a z4 3.2 shifter in it, as a short shifter.

if his "M3 convertible" is green, then I've seen it on the road before.

Well, the one i was looking at was silver, with chrome brembos. S50 in it.

I don't believe any of the authentic E30 M3 cabrios in the states are swapped... sooooo....

[DEV0 E30]

Replica or something maybe then, like the one that keeps popping up on ebay. Lets hope this guy signs up so the general consensus can either praise or tear him a new one like anything outside the realms of standardization of the chassis formerly known as an E30, and the speculations are solved.

ddongbap - I just did a quick check to see if the Z4s were getting bigger engines because you said 3.2. I want one, but they are only up to 3.0s atleast right meow, just so you know.

[ddongbap]

Meh. HE said 3.2 I didn't think there was anything else than a 3.0. But I didn't want to argue.

I thought the new Z4 M Roadster/Coupe had THE ///M 3.2 in it?

I know of three that were imported. Mucho dollars for federalization. They were at a the Lime Rock Show a few years ago.

There was a guy on www.bimmerfest.com that created on in California. He grafted the panels and put a S14 in it but he butched the front lights with halos and what not.

Here's one I found over on bimmerfest.com

Actually I shouldn't have said anything because I know Terry Sayther does good work. I just wasn't to impressed with calling the car an e30 m3 touring. 1, it was a late model. 2, it didn't have the factory e30 m3 body kit. 3, it had an s50 if I remember correctly, not an s14. The only thing that made it an e30 m3 was the wide body fenders and the 20 year old suspension. If they would have dubbed it "e30 touring with wide body fenders and an s50" I would have been much happier.

1. all tourings are late model
2. it had bmp rs. not a big deal to get m3 bumpers on there
3. its an m motor. there are e30 m's out there

obv when he calls it that hes saying it has m3 characteristics, not saying this is an actual m3 touring from bmw

4. who cares

True, but no e30 m3's are late model. And youre right, who cares? I don't really, just trying to explain why I made that comment.

[Kman]

i went there friday, where was it?

[rede30]

I drove past a white e30 m cab last monday on the 80 outside of sf. I was going a different direction so i didnt get the best look but it looked nice.

Seemed like the latest numbers were something like 7 real ones in the US. 4 on the east coast, one in the midwest and 2 west coast. It was in a thread on S14 last week - guy that knew numbers was a owner of a silver one himself and he rattled off the location and color of the other real ones. Don't think he bothered mentioning the garage built ones.

That car is a ricey hack. His carbon fiber hood has multiple vents and scoops all over it. His fender flares are not authentic. He has ebay angle eyes that match his ebay crystal taillights pretty well.
Overall, i wasn't very impressed when i saw it a while ago.

The hood is ugly, but who cares if the fender flares are not authentic? I think the car was done fairly well but there are a few things that i feel he shouldn't have done, such as the ebay tails and halos.
