A real tribute to the modding world.

Wow thats a proper sleeper.

[Blitz]

He must be filthy rich especially as the engine is brand new.

[jmc330i]

Thats one hell of a build

Theres a few vids on you tube of a V10 M3, the sound is amazing.

(note to self - must win lottery tonight)

[nickso]

thats lovely. wish i had the kind of money needed to do that to mine.

[Benho]

i would massacre everyone on this forum for that

[GrindCulture]

I was reading about this a while back before it was completed. So much amazing engineering has gone into that to run the V10 properly and get the geometry on the E90 suspension spot on without ruining the look of the car.

Seriously. F*cking. Cool.

[Dezzy]

I have seen that a few times as it's been getting further along. I have been struggling too get an m50 runnig put my skills to shame. Love this car.

[madaboutthe30]

Usually I dissaprove of stuff like that, my response always is "why not just use a normal e30 shell?"
But in this case..........

[Daf318is]

Fantastic! I hate to think how much that set him back! I'm sure the satisfaction is worth every penny though

[stuartgallafant]

That is fantastic, shame about the shit wheels and the shit colour!

[djk]

Shame they didn't make it a total sleeper - stock looking interior, exhaust etc would have been even cooler. But, bloody hell, whata machine, and what a build! Epic.

I'd massacre everyone on this forum for 80p, a pack of Tangy Cheese Doritos and a bottle of Schweppes.

I'm odd, though.

+1 and the noise every last $$$

[kam-325i]

[beanoir]

that is amazing, would be so nice to have the ability, the funds and the tools required to be able to do something like that.

It looks great in that colour too.

[HMC]

Very nice work

[On_a_Roll]

Throw enough money at something I guess...

Impressive but it's not really an E30 though is it?

i'd say thats pretty much the ultimate e30

[On_a_Roll]

Nah - it's engine swaps gone too far.

Oh look, they;ve put a rocket engine in a Megane.

A once nice machine butchered for some idiots mutant fantasy.

Disgusting.

Jealousy's a bitch aint it

[On_a_Roll]

Err, I guess it is.

[whipsey]

on a serious note though this is the complete other end of the scale to what your doing to your resto which is amazing in its own right the v10 build is another way of pushing the boundaries just like the v16 7 series i read about yesterday

[steve_k]

i can't remember who said abot the video of a v10 m3 on you tube but here you go



there are a few vid's on there of the car.

[Dezzy]

That noise is amazing wow!

[Daf318is]

That noise is amazing wow!

+1, I just wet myself over that!

[steve_k]

just imagine sitting in that at the traffic lights & some little numpty pulling up along side in his type r thing & seeing an e30 sat next to him, you just know he's going to be thinking "when the lights go amber i'll leave that old car for dead",

but as we all know as soon as the lights change your gone & the type r clone is sat there wondering what the hell you've done to the car.

i wonder if it could beat a 318is??


















sorry i just couldn't resist..........................................................i'll get my coat.

[Blitz]

Looks like its going to warp speed.

[Rich_W]

It's an interesting project. And it's been done by the look of it very well indeed.


BUT.


I can't help but think it's all a little irrelevant. What do we think? $150K+ (V10 is $30K!)Sure he's got a 1 off car, but for that money you could have had something very, very good. Which would also muller that car round a racetrack. Hell, spend $15K on a E30 M3 and you'll beat it round a racetrack and still have the S14.

[Dezzy]

IMO anyone can go buy a fast car for x amount and drive it. The thing I like is making a nice unique car that can't just be bought. He has used skills very few have and ended up with a car that is totally amazing. That is just my opinion.

EFA. This was not some guy in a garage with a MIG. This was a chequebook car in every sense of the word. If I had that sort of money, even as a fan of E30 M3's I wouldn't be bothering with something like this at all
