Pretty cool somebody bought a brand new car and immediately takes it for motor and tuning. Did you see Jean's TI? Would be nice to keep this one around the .org... http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/cto/4943200593.html | | | 03-24-2015, 09:59 PM | #5 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2013 Location: Germany Posts: 375 | Wow, that car looks really well done!

Shop labor isn't cheap though An S50 with 50k is an S50 with 50K on it regardless of whether it was installed new or 'pulled from a junkyard' so I don't see the point there. | | | 03-25-2015, 01:58 AM | #12 | Member Join Date: Sep 2009 Location: Fernandina Beach, Florida Posts: 39 | Yep- folks over at Bring A Trailer are talking about it a lot. http://bringatrailer.com/2015/03/23/...1996-bmw-m3ti/ Of course a number of them just don't like the Ti hatchback body, but quite a few are interested. | | | 03-25-2015, 04:00 AM | #13 | Senior Member Join Date: Dec 2010 Location: Wichita Falls, Texas Posts: 1,364 | Quote: Originally Posted by roadrash $14,500 though... wow.

For anyone who ever intends to do a build like this, save yourself some time and money! | | | 03-25-2015, 09:32 AM | #14 | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2008 Location: Globally Posts: 1,162 | For a clean rust free straight car, it worth it. cheaper than buying any new car on the market out there in the 15-20k range nothing will compare as all will be fwd and boring. Few things wrong weight, diff and hp ratings but nothing to complain about overall | | | 03-25-2015, 04:24 PM | #15 | Senior Member Join Date: May 2013 Location: Seattle Posts: 513 | What about the S50 OBD1 question in a '96? Was that a split year or something or are exemptions in place? | | | | | Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread: 1 (0 members and 1 guests) | | Posting Rules | You may not post new threads You may not post replies You may not post attachments You may not edit your posts HTML code is Off | | | |
