    or how about this one with e32 tails ?






    Wait a second. I'm a little confused. Are these cars E34 wagons or E30 wagons?

    Why hasn't anybody done this in the US? (other than the insane amount of retrofitting work)

      I just realized why E34 tourings always looked a bit "off" to me, compared to other bmw tourings. It doesn't have the hoffmeister kink in the rear window.

        Has anybody else ever done E32 tails on an E30? Nobody talks about it as a mod. Is it because it's simply not worth the time and money to do the bodywork?

        I think it looks badass.

            Just because you didn't want to pay what I was going to sell the car for it doesn't mean you need to be a jerk about it. As I told you before there is a high demand for these cars in the US and with only a handfull of them in the states and federalized it puts it at a premium. I thought $20,000 was a good deal for this car considering the condition and the fact that it costs about $17,000 just to federalize one you would be lucky to find one as nice in the states and leagal. Just because in europe they aren't worth a second look doesn't mean they aren't more valueable here! You don't have to buy the car if you don't want it just don't act like a jerk and slander this thread.

                    It would look just fine on a moderate drop and period correct BBS up to 16 inches in size...

                    And its hard to top how it looks now

                      Not feeling the E32 tails on the E30 Touring. They're far too large, they look fine the way they are.

                        And it has a very usable opening in the back - no taillights to get in the way.

                            Yea, I'm going to have to back him here. If he didn't show up at the Lime Rock show with it, I probably would never have seen one in person. They are definitely more than rare here.

                                My reasoning:
                                $1500 car + $1000 shipping + $8,000 federalizing (and that is really how much it costs) != $20,000
                                But maybe your fuzzy math internet calculator works differently?
