Good luck getting that kind of $$$. I've seen 2 complete '95 M3 rollers (e36's) go for under $4k each. And the e36 cars have a bigger engine compartment than the e30 making the E30 a much harder swap.

But here's a bump for you, anyway...

Damn, I clicked on this thread thinking you were gonna start an e30 swap.
An e30 M3 would make a sweet conversion.

Is that $6000 america dollars? You must be hittin the pipe.

 

TOO MUCH

Re'

 

what do you think it is worth?

 

Honestly I'd say its not too far off if the car is super nice and is all there minus the motor and tranny. If its missing the interior and needs some body work then I'd say its way over priced. Try selling it on a BMW forum...

 

Your price is a little high but not too bad. Try a BMW forum like it was said above. Most rollers go around 3k-6k depending on the condition of the body and interior. You can't compare the e30 m3 to the e36 m3 since a mint e30 m3 will go for more than an e36 m3 because of its history.

 

e36 is worth less....

 

Depends upon who you ask. I personally think the e30's are ugly (no offense to those whose opinion differs).

And from what I understand the LS1 / e30 swap is really really tight (like 10 pounds of stuff into a 2 pound bag), whereas the e36 looks to be spacious in comparison (and there's at least 2 different kits available to do it).

But those are just my opinions. The other thing to mention is the value of a swapped car is also extremely subjective (depends upon who did it, how they did it, and the buyer). Which means you're likely to spend a bunch of money on it and have zero chance of getting the $$$ back out (as compared to swapping it into a '69 camaro instead).

If its nice or unwrecked sell it on a BMW forum, they'll eat it up, E30 is a way superior car to E36,
