Question Whose Car is this
I have been looking at many cars mainly 02-05 gs's, 03-06 e320's and m35's, i came across this http://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-s...12202694&Log=0

Is this anyones on here? Its a solid car, and an even better engine assuming that it was installed correctly.

The price looks great and only ten min from house. If I had the money I would def be test driving this.. At the least I think you should at least go look at it and feel the seller out... Also says negotiable so low ball him a little and make him come down on his price... Good find in my eyes...

I've never been a fan of buying someone elses swap. When things go wrong (and they will) you spend a ton of extra time tracking down problems.

sport design too for amazingly cheap price has to be something wrong.

my reasoning for buying used cars if its too good to be true, it probably is.

I wouldn't buy it just because i don't know who did the swap, and i drive way to much to have a swapped engine, i'd prefer a stock one suprisingly, but only because i drive 35-40k miles a year and I don't know these engines. i just figured this was someone's on here

^^Agreed. Its nothing but a nightmare trying to trace wires and little things. Rather start from stock and build that way you know the in and out of the car. Good luck with whatever you decided to do though
