Well LS2's cost considerably more than LS1's, and seeing as how a decent LS1 and a trans already cost nearly half of the price you listed without even accounting for mounts, wiring, etc. , it would appear that the remaining rolling chassis of these cars aren't worth shit regardless of how nice they are. There's your difference.

 

ls is ls. both junk.

 

Your assessment is so intriguing. Please tell us more about engines you can't afford out of $50,000 sports cars.

 

I can afford them. just not dumb enough to buy them and put them in an e36 lol

 

The only possible reply to the brilliant info you have added to my post, and your argument why ls engines suck............. "Your mom should of swallowed man".

 

Build looks good, better pictures (and action pics) will do more justice.

Highlighted this quote, just to inform that NO BANK will loan 20k for it. They will loan up to the actual max of "Excellent" condition for the car by itself. At 100k mileage, in "excellent" condition with all the bells and whistles...it's worth less than $6k.

Just letting you know you need to market the car to more "track/performance" oriented folks.

 

For a few thousand more you can buy a ten+ year newer high mileage m3 v8... 20k Is way too damn high. Also is it a t-56 as the GTO didn't have one.

 

Thanks for the complements! Yea pics could be better, and a video of it would help for sure. I have a video of me driving it on Vir full course, I will try and post it. Yea, I know banks aren't going to loan 20g for a old ass M3, but to be honest, figuring out how to pay for the car isn't really my problem. (not trying to be a dick, I agree with you.) I know it's going to limit my potential buyers, but if the car doesn't sell, i'm going to cage it for the next track day season and keep it. Thanks for the reply!

 

Thanks for the bump, and yes, we established that 20k was a lot for the car. GTO's have a T-56 RPO M12 to be exact.
