Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
http://bringatrailer.com/listing/2000-bmw-m-roadster-6/ I wonder how the E36 M motor feels with the supercharger. Might more bullet proof then the exploding E46 motor and just as fun.

The S52 with an M50 / S50 intake manifold (like on that wagon) is a really, really sweet engine. It's all the good parts of the S50 with the extra displacement of the S52. It's interesting that they used the cast-iron S50 exhaust manifolds, which are much heavier and (supposedly) don't flow as well as the tubular S52 ones. Maybe that's what they mean by "converted to OBD1?"
I would have no issue with the 320Z transmission in this car. I don't really like E34s, and I don't really like wagons, but that is kind of cool and I kind of want it. |
