Is this for real or just an engine swap....

Who knows? The 320iS was produced in 4 door guise so it's possible that it's genuine. I'd be surprised if it started life with bottle tops, comfort seats and a 4 spoke steering wheel but again, it's possible.

Looks real, there are others with this spec.

Get the VIN number and check with BMW.

Here's another with similar spec

Yes I think it's OEM. I think I've seen more 4 door spec cars than coupes. I have a friend in Portugal who said there was a dearth of these in scrappers over there in the late nineties.

Other than vanity and kudos of having an (not as edgy as the 2.3/2.5 & expensive to fix) S14 under the bonnet, its a bog standard E30.

Very interessting. Had never seen one before... But i am quite fresh into E30's! Just thought he was a crazy dutchman...

Having said all the above, if one came up for the right money I'd have it, for its rarity over here. Though right money imo would be around 5-7k for one of those, its the S14 that makes it out of reach.

Thats a 2009 price.

In Europe (or at least here) you'd have to pay 6-7k for a decent 325i nowadays.

I got one a few months ago for £7500, but that was probably just luck

What kind of power do these things put out?

Based on that write up, I'd have one!
