It reminds me of the “radio spot” for Brucie’s Executive Lifestyle Autos in GTA IV.
Something about giving your expensive exotic car to some guy from East Hook and letting him modify it so it’s worth a lot less. Player style!
I wonder if this still has a 6cyl or LS1? Personally I see nothing wrong with taking a 318is and dropping in a LS1, along with some 7-series suspension & brake bits, combining a good-handling chassis with a bit of grunt without upsetting the balance. I’d hate to see the rear wheel bearing loadings on this one though, possibly taken a bit too far.
Personally, I like the Honda S2k engine/trans swap into a 318is. BMW four-cylinder engines after the E30 M3 were nothing special, and this fixes that issue and keeps the front end nice and light. The fun starts around 1:25 in this video.
The horror, the horror, the horror
Wasn’t Bavaria the home of Frankenstein??
Oof!
Nice Honda! Oh wait you say it isn’t a Honda? Fooled me.

Genetically Different Baby!
I just noticed this at the local Pick N Pull and grabbed a quick snapshot, didn’t get a chance to talk to the owner or look under the hood.
Worst thing is that its blocking the view of that nice 90’s Seville on the right
I am insane now…
This is what happens when used BMW prices get low enough for high school kids to buy them!
After this, only an el camino version would get this car chopper my forgiveness.
I could use a little el camino bmw on the ranch.

How is that better than an S2k engine in an S2k though?
its popular to insert Mazda rotaries into these things here then lower them so far they dont handle but BMWs are plentiful and cheap.
