1997 BMW M3 'LS Swap'

Don’t let its timid looks fool you – this E36 M3 is hiding a monstrous 442HP LS3 V8 under the hood. With nearly twice the displacement and power of the stock motor and just 3,160 pounds to push around, we are confident that this E36 can get out of its own way. While the body has covered substantial miles, the chassis has been reinforced and the motor has seen less than 39K total miles. A long list of work has been completed over the last 18 months to get this example sorted and we think it looks like a lot of fun with potential for even more.

    Car history report

    Reported accidents are collisions that have been recorded by Carfax and AutoCheck through police reports or insurance claims. 

    Accidents usually aren’t deal-breakers, but they can affect the condition and value of the vehicle. We always recommend Carfax and AutoCheck reports followed by a pre-purchase inspection (PPI) - even if there are no accidents listed as some accidents go unreported.
