I’m very okay with this: 120d chassis, OEM 1M fenders, “complete mechanical and electrical DCT E92 M3 conversion from donor vehicle”, Nitron R1 suspension, Miltek exhaust.
I really need audio of this little monster...

Love it! Green is my favorite color. I wonder why the DCT?

Kinja ate the link:
Selecting which transmission to go for created a stumbling block. I’m normally a bit of a ‘manual purist’, but having experienced DCT M3’s, was highly impressed with how fun and involving the box still felt. I had to experience both back to back to ensure I wasn’t going to make a mistake. A test drive quickly confirmed my direction, and to my surprise, I was sticking with the dual clutch.

I’d really love to know what something like this would cost to do. $75k?

I’m sure it’s in that ballpark.

What do you guess it would cost someone that’s already got the “donor vehicle”? =)
That paint job alone has to be five figures.

That paint job is super ‘spensive.
I’d say even if you have both donor vehicles you’re looking at a minimum of $20k in labor.

For a one-off, one-of-a-kind car that you’d better plan on owning and enjoying a long time, because you’ll probably never get out what you’ve put into it. But for a decade or two enjoying that little beast? Worth it!

Oh yeah, definitely worth it!

I love that this guy got pictures of his next to the epic E91 M3 - one of my other favorite modern BMW customs.
