Thanks to the mods for giving us our own forum! If someone could sticky this thread, it can serve as a list of Bimmerforums members who have Euro motors and anything else about their car, whether it be a US car with a swap or an factory built one.

I sold this car to a track junkie who will drive it like it was meant to be driven on a track. Looking into newer E92s, etc. It was tons of fun while it lasted, but I'll still be working on the car for the new owner. Look or LISTEN for it at your favorite Mid-Atlantic area racetrack. I put a really loud custom exhaust on it.
