M3 (S52) Motor Swap car

[vwzx7]

Hey Guy's,

I have a question about a possible buy of a '95 318ti with an M3 motor swap that I am considering. I am or would be new to BMW's if I do this and would appreciate any advice that you all may give.

I've found said car and would be using this car a dedicated track car and would like to know your opinion of a 318ti (w/ the M3 motor) as a track car. Would it be a good performer, handling wise? I have no doubts that it can pull with that lump up front but will it be too tail happy? I'd be gutting the car and having a full cage installed. I ask this only because I have yet to see a 318ti at any of the track events I've been to so far. Of course there are plenty of E36/46's being used as well as E30's. (Does this answer my question )

From what I know or have been told - the motor has only 31k on it total and the car has 120k on it. Only 2k of the 31k was put on the motor after the swap. Work was performed by Azevedo Motorsports in NJ and car is selling from Enthusiast Auto Group also from Ohio. They appear to be reputable groups from what I can determine over here in CT but would like any input you may be able to give. EAG actually states they sell cars with the right of 1st refusal when or if I sell the car....and have bought every car offered back to them. They deal only in BMW's....

Thanks in adance..
