Surf = 4runner
Hilux = pickup/Tacoma

I've driven a RHD Hilux Surf Diesel! Mike Skeen had one and Kelly let me drive it when Tom and I visited on our way home from Road Atlanta a few years back.
The RHD thing is weird, they are tremendously slow, and there is a "TURBO" light that comes on when it is turboing.

If that bitch goes for $60k, I am buying a wagon and doing a swap. That's ridiculous.

No where near the $50-$60k mark, but the used market is currently nuts, so who knows
Those sales are both from two years ago. I think $60k is aggressive but BaT is booming so we will see.

Yeah. I cant say I understand it. The wagon is up to $31k now.
So, you could buy a decent runner with previous accident damage for $15k - https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2000-bmw-m5-60/
And a factory M-sport Touring for another $15k - https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2003-b...ouring-13/
Assuming your labor is 'free' you could double your money, and that's with just throwing away the extra parts and shell. Same with that swapped E38.
DJ, I'm moving to Charlotte and we're going to start BMW Swaps & ProfitZ, LLC.
I'm sure you could do just as well with newer cars if you're savvy with buying salvage titles & software coding - there's a guy building his own Golf R Variant, too - https://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.p...ing-my-own
I'm sure he'll have less in it than buying a used Golf R, while being able to flip it for 50% more. At least until the economy tanks and everyone realizes how fucking stupid it is to spend $60k on a 16 year old BMW wagon with shitty steering.

If this was Price is Right, Taylor would have won. $72k.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
DJ, when are you getting in on this? Rebuilding e34s, e39s, e36s with s motors seems to be good business..
JFC.... $72k....
I came here to post that. Absolute fucking lunacy. You can buy a used, but in good condition e63 wagon for that money.
