Default BMW Hartge H50 : BMW M3 killer

Put a M5's V10 in the new BMW serie 3, but 507HP is not enough, then now 550HP, 520 Nm, 0-100 km/h 4,4sec, max speed 320 km/h, price 157 650 € all taxes include.

poor next BMW M3?

Crazy Bimmer, but too many opennings on the hood.

Hartge H50 is a production car (157 650 € taxes include), we can buy it in Europe but I don't know if it will come to the states.

just buy a M5. I think it's stupid.

I like 335i but V10 motor is overkilled for this car.

I remember seeing some similar conversions, but I like this one. Must be wonderful in the torque department.

I won't never buy the car but if I should i will for 2 reasons. I don't like the BMW M5 and M6 style (but the engine ), and I have a very exclusive car, more than 2 others, because I don't think the will build a lot.

I don't like the hood fins, but very nice nevertheless!

it would be a great car if it is <100k but any BMW that is based on a common chassis @ 200k is rediculous. Just get a Gallardo or something exotic at that price.
