Convert my e90 rear to e91?

smartphoneIntegrationlol · 10-21-2016, 02:19 AM

I have a 335d but have wagon envy. Anyone know any examples of anyone undertaking or researching this? My searches come up blank.

wouldn't it be cheaper/easier to buy a wagon ad swap it over?

Cheaper and vastly better result.

You might as well just buy a e91 and swap in an s65 and it'd still be cheaper! Haha

Check the New Century ads in the LA Times. Can get a good lease on one if you're watchful...

I remember when my wife's cousin's husband got a E91 stick, 328 with m sport. Right tail lamp was burned out and the car was < 600 miles... Why not just look for something like that used....but isn't this one of those things that is anticlimactic? It's just a 3 that happens to be a wagon, what's so great about it....maybe less common?

Wut???

Seriously, what exactly from the rear of the e91 are you wanting to convert to?

Fundguy1 · 10-21-2016, 08:29 AM

Sounds like ge wants to make a sedan into a wagon lol. Just get a wagon and swap motors if the end result you want is a wagon with a different drivetrain. Id just get a 335i e91 and call it a day.

Not gonna lie, a 335d wagon would be pretty neat.
