BUY IT DAVE!!!!!!!
Can I keep it in your garage?
-
Oh that is awesome. I really want that!
-
I would let you if I had a garage=P IIRC, you did have an e30 in the garage next to your e21 and that has since been sold
You are correct, but that is my tenants garage space unfortunately
-
Buy it anyways and store it somewhere
-
I would in a heartbeat, but I have to look at the big picture. It has been a race car from the factory (aka no title) which means I would need to buy a trailer and a truck to haul the trailer whenever I would want to take it to the track. Otherwise it will just sit in storage forever and never be used. Reality sucks!

Meanwhile, someone go lowball this guy and buy his swapped ti so I stop thinking about it:

Just put your plates on it from your e21. Swap vin tags over. Boom. Done.
Don't listen to me
Lots of dudes "plate" supermoto this way

6cyl ti must be awesome on track. The liveliness of an e30 rear susp. with the great engine placement of the e36 front end
John Morgan's s52 swapped ti would be, and probably is, a track beast....I seriously considered that one for a bit after taking it for a drive at the e30 picnic. Managed to resist the temptation. Sorry John!
This guy's m50 swap is a junior version. Would possibly get you into less trouble on the street, though. That said, in addition to the one track video in the FS listing (where he's running Gingerman in what looks the reverse direction...must have been a fascinating track day), there's a video floating around I found of the seller hooning about in an industrial parking lot.

who the hell is swapping e36 motors into other e36s when e30s exist?

I've been tempted by this one too, especially because it's white and appears to be a slicktop. Still, a $1500-2000 car with a $500 motor in it ain't really worth 4 grand...
