Project Phoenix (E31 850i) is now up. I really enjoyed this one and hearing the owners reaction was fantastic.

Agreed! Nice episode and the reaction was great! Cool that the original sticker was there. The trunk / boot was factory fresh as well!

E31 is such a beautiful design!

Sreten living the life; enjoyable watch.

It's clear he has been bitten by the track bug.

Anyone want to guess when he converts the E92 M3?

Buy an old Alfa with a Busso engine if you want a Ferrari engine noises and performance on a shoe string budget. Great episode but I will continue to avoid things build by Tony.

I guess nobody fixes these cars, so they don't even make parts. Still in production and you can't get a valve cover gasket. Hopefully he can sell it for a little bit of a profit.

Also that rat's nest on the front is really something. BMW is looking pretty good. Really good actually. That wire in front of the timing cover again... Ugh. It's nice to see how others do it similar / different.

Great episode, I'll stick with BMWs. What a nightmare of an engine. Makes an N62 look like a lego set.

I was totally shocked by this. Is this a coincidence or by design? I got so many questions and assertions. . .
