Hey you can just let me buy that set for $800 🙂

We get great shipping quotes (due to our many projects) so if anyone needs shipping we have awesome rates. I'm sending a set of wheels i bought from wellington to chch today and it was like $67.00. If your christchurch based i'll help out forum members.

Rip out the motor and trans, its too valuable. You're right at that point just swap and LS. Chopping up a M5 doesn't make sense. Unless youre making a ringtaxi clone or something

I rekon Oh, this was before my time. Whats the story?

When Hoovie put those wheels on his Z8. *chefs kiss* Love those wheels

I would add that Alcantara's suitability is absolutely based on its age and condition. New is great, old is terrible and soaked in every oil nasty that touches it.

I love painted beltline on a E39. But so far most dont agree with me. The tan reminds me of my Mustangs saddle interior. Its just too bright. Darker tan or brownish works better.

Yeah i dont mind tan with green either. Alpine rims like above would look good. The rebuilt motor adds nothing to the price. Just POM.

Seems like he was burning money. S54B32 would be a great swap. But then he'd want 59k.

I applaud him for doing something so dumb and spending so much on the car. If i was more wealthy than i am i would waste my money doing things like this. Though a M54 rebuild doesn't make much sense. Why not swap something else?

I agree with all of the above. lol

That car is really pretty. I'd love to see the wife driving around in it.

You know he painted those wheels too. Screams "I just got my business loan from the bank!" "lets spend 20 of it on a "promotional vehicle"
