    Has everyone seen this monster?

    Normally I think chopped up E30s look like caca but this is really badass:

        Does it even have enough torque to rotate those wheels? Ugly as sin and under powered, pass.

                  Garrett's e30 has an m52 swap with intent to turbo it next. Should be interesting to see how that works out. Tons of time into that already. Props for him doing something a little different than GC and RS's.
                  ...what hasn’t been done to an m20 yet?

                    Garrett's car is a rather amazing build, especially considering that he did the entire thing himself with no metal or body work experience going in. Once it has the go to match the bodywork I think it'll be one of the best e30's around.

                          wasn't expecting garrett f's car but I feel like if it wasn't compared to a regular e30, it would look better.

                          Lambo's pics make it look really good though. I feel like some angles make it look really good, and some give it weird reflections that make it look fucked.

                            Aesthetically, I feel the curved nature of his widebody conflicts with the boxy design of the car, but those fat wheels look awesome, especially in the rear. Compared to a regular e30, this car looks tits. Maybe I would have wanted the flares a bit smaller. But then again, it wouldn't be as outrageous.

                            I feel like everyone is going to find something to complain about, so why try making it perfect? Just do the best you can to make your vision become a reality

                              That's pretty cool, I like it. It's always nice to see something a little different, ie not stanced out on RS type wheels. Between the flares, the wide rubber and the racing seats I was expecting it to have significantly more than 201whp, try 3x that.

                              Not a fan of stickers on the windshield though, "Pretty too hammered", really?
