Yes, it's a barge, but it has TWO M20s glued together!

probably a sweet cruiser but im just into lightweight small bare bones cars. even my 540 feels like a barge to me.

I think you found the seat I want.

With a manual trans swap, that would be worthwhile. I went to the trouble to do the swap on my E38 740iL, but if I'd had any idea I was going to get as far into the car as I did, I would have started with something with a V12. Over eight years or so, the car went from a mommy-mobile to one of my projects.

This car, with a manual trans, would have a cool-factor that would just be enhanced as the years pass.

I figure this would be about a US$10k job, mostly because the 6-speed from a V12 850 is needed and therefore a grand, maybe two, more on the used market (unless a recycler doesn't know its more rare). I believe the bellhousing or something makes the 6-speed different enough from those in the V8s.

I love that car! What are the differences in that motor compared to one in a 750?
