You are bidding on what many consider the holy grail of BMW motor swaps, the legendary S-14 E30 M3 motor planted in the iconic light-weight 2002. Much time & effort (and of course money) has been spent completing this build. Although I've tried to cover all the particulars listed below, I’m sure I may have forgot something. Don’t hesitate to reach out with further questions. This solid example has spent time in CA and then on to CO, finally settling in to the MidWest. I don’t suspect it has seen a lot of winter weather and has held up accordingly. This M2 has the right color, the right mods along with a great look and stance. Certainly a good investment and a difficult to find example with this rare combo of drive-train, performance and eye appeal. Description follows:
