There's obviously a reason that there are some unofficial "standard" wheels for some cars. Just because someone does something different, doesn't mean it is necessarily good. It's like Indie music. A lot of indie sucks because it intentionally tries to be eclectic and off the beaten path in a quest for pseudo-intellectual "artists" to try to validate themselves as being unique and imply that they are superior for doing so. None of that changes the fact that many studies have proven that certain music chord progressions are, by nature, more aurally pleasing to the majority of people's ears. This is the same concept with a good number of modern BMWs that all look really good with any CSL-style wheel, or older BMWs that look really good with basketweaves.

These Hot Wheels should have stayed in toy form, not been put on a E92. They are fucking trash.

I think it would be cool to own an E34 like this. It just seems really overpriced and the guy has been trying to sell for a long time I think. I recall seeing this before at some point. Does anybody know what prices these are actually selling for with 150k miles? (not listing, actual sale prices)

You're welcome=)

That e34 is weird to me. I understand the Dinan engine is amazeballs but to me that still should hurt the price instead of help as it makes it less of a "collector" and more of a drivers car. For that price, there are a lot more options for someone to drive a "fast" bmw

Agreed but much appreciated.

Who was looking for an e30 hood? Buy the rusted out ix cheap and part out the non rusted bits to cover costs (trunk lid, side skirts, bumpers, front transfer case if it works, etc, not sure if there is anything interior wise) .

Earl

I would buy the skirts and flares=)

Is it bad that I find this car very attractive? At least from his highly mediocre pictures that is.

I put the motor in this car with a friend. Its a Dinan stroker 3.9. Thats why the price is so high. Those motors alone sell for Wayyyyy to much money for what you get. Its a cool car, but its not fast, and the car is not perfect either. I offered to help him sell it and list it online, but he also thinks his 325is E30 is worth $15k so I told him it will never sell. Purists, let me tell ya.
