This car is a monster and every detail has not been overlooked! Now for the cons: As seen in the pictures the fenders are dented. The paint is all original so there are little rock chips here and there in the front as you can see in the pictures. Paint I would say is n 8/10 with no clear coat peeling. No A/C! Purposefully built without it. With the sunroof open and rear windows opened the temperate is perfect. If you want A/C installed it’s not that difficult to do but because this is a swapped car, the engine bay gets a little tight in the front to work on.

All the little knickknacks as seen in the pictures are included (bra, BMW license plate, etc). Super fast and much faster than an E36 M3. With the tire size, diff, 6 speed gear ratios, hp, the computer tells us this is over a 194 mph car. I believe it! You can chirp the tires at 65 mph.

The car will come with a clean CA title, SMOGGED for a CA buyer, and documentation / receipts. This is a car not for the faint at heart. The car was built to be a daily driver and a good track day car. At about 2k pounds and over 200+ hp, you get the idea.

Reason for selling is have too many cars. This one needs to go to make room for a full-blown, not-as-pretty racecar. Since this car is a fresh build, it has not been abused. The next owner can do that.

Located in Huntington Beach and happy to work out the logistics if being shipped. Please, serious buyers only. If don’t have the funds, please don’t bid. This is not a cheap E30, but well worth it. My loss is your gain.
