C'MON, MANE!!!
I'll get pics today assuming it doesn't rain. Forgot to mention it has a borla exhaust. It makes some pretty sweet pops & gurgles.
I had all the "chrome" E36 M3 painted black when I bought it. It's peeling quite a bit on the grille, and a couple spots on window trim. Good weekend project.
Obviously I need to vacuum it, but I'd give the interior a solid 8/10. It's a detail away from 10/10.
Also, you'll notice there's pinstriping on passenger side but not driver's lol.
There's a thread on here somewhere. Young lady backed into driver side front door in kroger parking lot. MINOR hit. Body shop did a great job. I asked them to leave pinstriping off, and remove it from passenger side. They forgot to remove it, but will do it for free, or re-stripe driver side for free.

A cruze will depreciate. I doubt this car will ever be worth less than it is now.

You know the look? I got THE LOOK.
Seriously, if it weren't for my erm...current situation I'd probably have done it already and ordered the transmission.
Since this will need a new transmission fairly soon, and these cars were offered with a manual, other than the transmission and clutch what else would a swap entail? I'm guessing the ECU could be reprogrammed since there was a factory manual, or would that require a new harness? Does the automatic use the same bellhousing as the manual?

1: You don't want to do a manual swap.
2: IDFK.
C: It's $12k
If you want a V2 M6, go buy one for $30k. If you can find one.
Sorry, I didn't mean anything derogatory or any offense! Quite the opposite, it is a fantastic deal and considering the V2 M6s are $30K, I was just asking everyone on the forum, who are all far more knowledgeable than I about the technical aspects. $12K plus the swap, even if I had to pay someone to do it, could be well worth it.
Poopshovel is just being honest. I looked up the swap as well, just for fun. Everyone says it is terribly expensive to do and finding all the parts to do it is difficult as there were so few MT Vs. This car would be fun even with the AT.

I sent the link to my wife and wrote ordered. She acted like I never sent it does that mean "do what you want?" or "I'll put a pillow over you while you sleep"
I had a V2 6mt back when they were cheap for a few months. 12k is so tempting please someone buy this now.
