I like it but would rather see it Jet black or Carbon and not flat. ---

I like it, there are some things that could have been done better though. ---

Seems like that would be a really easy swap… getting interior to look right might be difficult… Although there’s probably European manual trim pieces for the seven… Mike, did anybody ever do a S70 seven? ---

I think there might be an S70’d e32 7, and I know there is an S7x 8 series, though BMW claims it doesn’t exist. ---

Yeah, I forgot about that. I was more referring to the development/race motors. Whoops. I’m gonna have to go look this up now as I can’t remember. I wanna say there was an S70/1 or /2 in an e32, and an S70/2 in an e31. From the factory. ---

Yeah, S70/1 was in the M8 prototype that there is 1 of (that BMW doesn’t acknowledge). ![http://e31.net/pics/S701.jpg](http://e31.net/pics/S701.jpg) ![http://e31.net/pics/M8.jpg](http://e31.net/pics/M8.jpg) Couldn’t find the bit on the e32 quickly and I don’t care about e32’s… ---
