  • Nice car but BORING video. We get that it has a rear bumper. Would like to see more.

  • @95schnitz Ha, yea I know it is weak. Just got it on the road that day and wanted to get some sound clips up. I will get some more footage soon!

  • i love it, tho i surprise with how quiet is it. i thought part of those nasty muscle noise is from the engine but clearly it is just resonator + muffler.

  • I wonder how it would have gone if we tried to registrate one of these in norway... I love norway for its nature and our wealth and everythyng but man they KILL the car enthusiasts like myself with not toooo much money... god

  • oh my god. american chevy aluminum v8 muscle. plus german styling. handling. and lightweight compact sportiness. is a solid recipe for a very awesome custom sportscar.

  • Love this idea

  • @intheboost BORING!!!

  • i run a rhd ls1 powered e36 with headers, 78m throttle body, afr 205 heads hardened pushrods and it`s good for 530 bhp but more importantly nearly 400lb/ft at 2000rpm . that`s a massive difference to an m3`s poor low down power :-)

  • @riCoger we do this swap because it makes an m3 fast which it certainly wasn`t before . they have no grunt below 4.5k and the tuning potentials endless b

  • kudos for the build but it kind of sounds like a tractor... an m3 needs the original engine in my opinion
