S85 V10-Powered BMW E30 M3
This BMW E30 M3 in Australia features a notable engine swap, fitting an S85 V10 from an E60 M5 under its hood. With this 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V10 engine, the car now produces 500 horsepower, significantly more than its original setup. The build retains a 56/44 weight distribution, enhancing both street and track usability. Additionally, it utilizes a six-speed manual gearbox from an E90 M3 and has upgraded Recaro seats for improved driving comfort. Originally from New Zealand, this E30 M3 has been converted to right-hand drive, making it a unique and powerful project car that combines OEM aesthetics with surprising performance.
