SOLD

1999 E36 M3 with S54 swap from a 2005 M3 and 5-speed manual ZF transmission. It’s an extremely quick and reliable HPDE car with the potential to make into a competitive track car. I’m the fourth owner. The second owner had the car built by Turner Motorsports, including the full cage. I had the engine swap performed at approximately 78k miles. The S54 has the VANOS completely upgraded with Besian and Dr. VANOS parts along with WPC coated bearings.

The car has a clean title, clean CarFax, no accident history, and is titled in Texas. I don’t have it registered as I trailer the vehicle. Body is in good shape, no dents, no rust, does have normal track/HPDE patina on the front end and wheel wells. The front bumper cover has some cracks where the front lip pulled away during an off, and I have a new in box aftermarket cover that will be included. The lip is secured currently, and I’ve been using as is for several months with no issues.

Tires and brakes have a lot of life as the tires are scrubs that I have no heat cycles on, and brake pads and front rotors only have 4 HPDE sessions. Car needs nothing to go an enjoy track days today!

Couple videos in action:

 

This is awesome. I'm doing a S54 swap with a 6 speed in my 95 M3 currently. Mine will be more of a street car/weekend track car setup but love the work put into this.

I was also thinking of going e85. I'm told with that setup and a good tune I should be able to reach 330 WHP.

Anyways, not trying to sidetrack this thread. GLWS!

 

Thanks! I love this car but time to move on.

Good luck on your swap... totally worth it. The extra rpms make all the difference. 330 whp will be nice too.

Mine only has headers and tune, so plenty more can be had from it

 

This is a Super nice car. I have seen it at the track, and know that the seller is meticulous with all his cars and there maintenance.

 

Thanks bud!

Open to reasonable offers. I've got lots of spares that can be negotiated in the deal as well, including:

Second wheels set (Kosei K1)
Conti scrubs
Pirelli wets
PFC 01 pads
Used front rotors
More!

 

is it still for sale?
