2000 BMW 740i '6MT Swap'

Asking $19,000
2000 BMW 740i '6MT Swap'

Overview

Sporting a proper three-pedal manual, this E38 740i benefits from some worthy upgrades and a long list of maintenance. A stage 3 engine tune gives it a more lively demeanor, and a Dinan intake works with a M60 intake manifold and big bore throttle body to feed the motor more of what it wants. A generous helping of interior upgrades make the cabin a nicer place to spend time, and period-correct AC Schnitzer give it the sportier look it deserves.
