BMW is, to this day, quite cruel with their performance wagon distribution to the US. So we have to improvise. This E34 wagon not only has a nicely modified S50 from a dearly departed E36 M3, but it also has it's 5 speed manual as well. This car looks great with the M5 bumper swap, drop, and a nice set of CSL replica wheels. We don't mind the green that much, but we would like to know what color the interior is. A few things are going wrong with the car, most concerning is as the seller describes "...speed wobble in the passenger rear wheel, but only when going 53-57 mph... I suspect that it's either a bad wheel bearing or needs to be balanced properly." The worse case scenario is the wheels bearing, which repairing yourself is cheap, but it's a pain. There is some confusion about the condition of the paint on the roof as the seller states in one part of the ad that the roof has been sanded down and needs paint, while in another part says that the roof was taken to bare metal and painted at the same time as the bumpers. All in all, this looks like a great daily driver with some great performance mods that's in very fair condition compared to most E34's that we see for sale these days. Find it here, in Redmond, WA, for $8,000 OBO.
1995 BMW 525I Touring, E36 M3 Drive-train Swap
Yesterday's E21 set the bar pretty high for modified Bimmers and while this E30 didn't go through such a thorough restoration it still looks Fantastic. The hounds tooth sport interior is a rare option that looks great and appears to be in fair condition. We're big fans of S50 swapped cars and this one looks to have had no corners cut in it's construction. One of the major pitfalls with this car is that it is not BAR'ed and has no catalytic converter, therefore it will not pass smog. The owner says that they will "...discus details of handling smog." with perspective buyers. Either way, we suggest you budget for a cat. This car looks great and the price reflects that at $10,500. Find it here in La Crescenta, CA. Special thanks to Shaun and Mike for the submission!
Found on r3vlimited's classified's is one of the nicest swapped E30 cars we have seen. Everything is done and it comes with many rare and nice parts from a suede, Evo II wheel, crazy cool C4 corvette wheels, BBS RS wheels with spike studs, a euro clock, and many other cool features. The price is in E30 M3 territory but we don't think your going to find a nicer car for less. Find it here in Kansas City, MO for $10,900 OBO.
