BMW with the heart of a Toyota... hmmm..., This gives me inspiration... Options

[MaskedMan]

Ok well as some of you may know i own a 93' 5-series BMW, i got it as a daily, and well, it's different from my toyotas im used to driving. its kinda boring... But i was looking around on the interweb today and i found this one site in a language i couldn't read. Anyways, i found this one BMW that was really done up and i look at a picture of under the hood and saw this....



now the outside....




D1 stickers and a 1jzgte, but but but automatic...?


What i have to work with ....

1jz? jesus look at the size of the turbo! i want a beamer...not a 5 series tho, maybe when im older, and i try the whole, "its more practical to have 4 doors" bullcrap argument. yeah 4 doors is more practical, but when your droping like 50k on a 5 series its not that practical no matter how many doors u have. lol


and dude, i <3 your 5 series. I'd totally rock it. The 5 series is luxury, not performance/sport. Ur suppose to black out the windows, get clear turns, and some big rims, lower it, drop a 5k watt system in it, and go like 5mph down the road, as u check out all the ladies. lol idk man, i like beamers, all kinds.

I had a 84 318i, and I loved it. If I ever do find another one or an E30 M3 i'd scoop it up.

i had a chance to nab an E30 m3 about a week after i bought the celica. I didnt have the money to, if i didnt get the celica i could have. Oh well.

Thats hot minus the graphics, I used to have a 91 525i... I loved it. Def wasnt as fun as the celica, but Id get another one in a heart beat, I loved that car. I also like rwd much better than front. But what ya gunna do, when u need something reliable and afordable.

Mine's been pretty good dependabilitywise, but idk it just feels like it take forever for my engine to respond, mayeb cuase it's auto and im used to driving stick all the time.

do you mean clear side markers or turnsignals? And are they crystal clear or are they like these?


What kind of wheels are they? pics pics , i might be interested, but ive been thinking of upgrading to 18's. hmmm, my dash is in perfect condition still, and my seats are all redone in suade so no more leather seats for me .

speaking of BMW's...

z3's are notoriously cheap around my area, we're talking like $15,000 at most for a used one, are they any good or what?

i love the look of them, but i'd be afraid of the craftsmanship / power they have.

well the Z3's aren't all that powerful, but is a pretty fun car to have. I think they come in 2.5ltr 170hp and 2.8 ltr 190hp. Hmm that actually not too bad now that i think about it. yeah $15k sounds about right for one. I love the coupe models

[Jdog1385]

god i love the front of that car

[axelrduvirage]

i think...no, i know i'm in love
