looks like a honda owner got a smashed 535 and went crazy!

The M3 fender grills are really over the line of rice in my opinion!
Hood scoop too, but it may be required for the turbo? if not, it's just gay!

And strangely, it doesn't look lowered... there is some gaposis even with 18"
am I wrong?
let's keep an eye on the selling price!

The interior is just plain tacky. He has a red and black theme going on but the carpet is tan!

That red and black vinyl really 'sets off' the wood-grain trims!

OK, so I see its number palte; BI-TURBO (for real?).

I can see the first turbo up on top, next to the K&N hot-air and dirt intake system - but where is the second one (and why 2?)?

The tailpipe is trick though- that is such a hot mod!!!! We all hate the stock e34 pipes but never find a way to fix it right. IM(Not So)HO The only wrong thing on the car, except that it was made without Cold cathodes on every corner and LED lightup everythings...

I'd be surpirsed if you could get $10k for a car dressed as appallingly as that. It is defiantely terminal- the poor thing will pass in and probably be parted out prior to sale or sold at half the price and wrecked soon-after by the idiot that buys it and drives it home.

So the question is fellows, is the engine any good modded like that and who wants the bits once they hit eBay? :) Nick

how long can a 200k mile turbo engine last? (legitimate question, i know that the m30's last a while)

if he got rid of the hood, bi-turbo plate (1 plus 0 = 1. there is no other turbo), m3 fenders, side exhaust, and the volvo looking taillights, it wouldn't be half bad. the interior can be fixed, just tint the windows dark enough so no one can see in. besides with it looking like that i wonder if he actually picks up chicks? lol.


not to bash it too much, with a little love and extranneous **** removal, it's still a badass turbo'ed m30. if it really truly is putting down 400hp, i would totally rock out with it.

I had NO idea I could projectile vomit that far until I saw that Autozone interior ! :p
A new owner will surely de-jackassify that deserving ride so it can be enjoyed by all.
I'm guessing there is a flame thrower at the exhaust tip to complete his jis-markings.lol

I think the other turbo must be a turbonator... it's probably hidden somehwere underneath a bundle of pvc tape beside the exhaust manifold... beside that awesome ram-hot-dust intake...
