    Take a guess; any guess!

    Here's a couple hints:

    It's a BMW produced before 2000 (I wouldn't have it any other way)

    It has an Inline 6 that was swapped into it

    It's not an E30.

    Fun fact: The P.O. put a 1,200 dollar Eisenmann muffler on it (I bought my E30 for $1,400 cash originally. I think this is ironic!)

    and here's the twist: If the car isn't guessed by the time this thread reaches 3 pages in length, WIbimmers loses, and Laishes wins!

    The first one to get it right with the exact MODEL and ENGINE (Example: E21 coupe with an M20 swap.)

    will recieve...

    ....

    ....

    ....

    HYPE.

                That is an e34. I can tell by the mirror. Not sure what engine though. M52 swap?

                      hint: This particular E34 as far as I know did not come factory with the engine it has in it.

                      What has been correctly guessed thus far is that it is an E34!

                      Now you guys have a page and a little to guess what engine it has swapped into it and what model the original E34 was from the factory.

                          It's a bimmer engine although I do love the JZs.

                              Negatory! This engine is actually pretty unique for this particular model E34

                              It's counter-intuitive to think about when thinking of a "swap" but only due to the E34 its in.

                                Thus far:

                                It is an E34 - What model (from the factory) hasn't been determined by you guys just yet.

                                It does not have an:

                                M5x swap

                                S5x swap

                                1/1.5/2JZ swap

                                This is relatively uncommon that's why this thread was started! If it had a typical engine swap I wouldn't of started this thread

                                Comon guys I'm losing faith in you all!

                                Earl gets a point for correctly guessing the fact that it is an E34!

                                Way to go Earl!

                                  Hint:

                                  I know it's blurry but its the best I can do without going out to the cold

                                  Not sure if it helps...
