BMW never built an E36 M3 wagon so Marvin Fonacier<\/a> built his own. He started with an 1997 BMW E36 Touring and swapped a 3.2 L S54 inline-six. The motor produces 400 hp (294 kW) and 280 lb-ft (379 Nm) of torque thanks to SuperSpring exhaust, Radium fuel pump and rail, CSF oil cooler, and Turner Motorsports carbon fiber intake. The motor is paired to a 420G six-speed manual transmission. The suspension features a Prazis air suspension with Smokedogg Customs<\/a> anti-roll bars and Brembo GT four-piston front brakes. The body features a Pandem E36 M3 widebody custom fitted by Smokedogg Customs covered in Avus Blue 276 paint. They also added Bosch E36 M3 GT Yellow ellipsoid headlights, custom smoked taillights, and custom rear diffuser. A set of Toyo Proxes R888R<\/a> (225\/40, 265\/35) mount on Hartge custom 3-piece wheels (18×9, 19×10). Inside you find an 8-point roll cage surrounding Recaro SR3 seats with Schroth Blue 4-point rallye 4 ASM harnesses. In front of those are a BMW Mtechnic2 steering wheel and Z3M S54 gauge cluster. The wagon will be auctioned at Mecum<\/a> on October 18th. <\/p>\n
