Oh, just to be clear....I wasn't commenting on the price at all - high or low.
This is a different deal than anything I've seen before - so it's going to be worth what someone is willing to pay for it (I hate cliches like that, but I think it applies here)
I was just saying that it's going to be tempting not to copy this idea.
well, if that is the case, i can say the community will be so much the better off for it. i can tell you from first hand experience that there are very few r3v-ers who possess the militantly disciplined personality to put in the level of detail that went into this car. as all of you know by looking at the hundreds of pics, there is not a single thing on this car that was cheesed up or hillbilly engineered. there isn't a single thing that you can look at and say that it doesn't look like it came that way from the factory. (well, maybe the stereo system, but it was very very well done)
this is the build that all of us should aspire to.
Can someone direct me to the post that Jordan describes how he went about getting the m54b30 into an e30? I think it's the swap I'd like to do in the future. haha
And, Jordan - how did your "sponsors" feel (mentioned in your video) about you selling the car, potentially at a profit? (I'm not sure if this is true, and if I am out of line you can just tell me to GTFO if you want) ;)
Seriously incredible though. Absolutely outstanding work and I'm sure the quality of work is exactly what we have come to expect of Jordan. I have been wanting to do something like this to my e30 for...umm...10 years? lol But, I can never seem to find the time.
That and this past weekend my 11 year old step son wrecked my wifes car for her but trying to start it up to get the AC cooling without noting it was in gear. It started up and drove across the cul-de-sac where it smashed into the neighbors house. I was upstairs in bed trying to sleep off a migraine, which I've been getting a lot of lately. Did not help my headache.
Funny story here on my end...when I was about 8-9, I went to start my mom's Honda Accord 5spd - it lurched forward and pushed the bottom half of the back garage wall off the foundation. There's a picture floating around of the damage...
