Dealership wanted $20k for a new engine. The rate he seen was for a n63 which BMW subsidizes the engine since they are pieces of crap.
At this point I want to take my GME tendies and go back and buy my old car. |

I still suggest doing a Blackstone test. If you have no shavings in there, then you have nothing to worry about and you can keep it and not worry about the financial loss. At the end of the day it's your car and you should do whatever gives you peace of mind and makes you happy

Let's not turn this into an n63 bashing. If you dont own or have never owned an n63 than you dont really know anything about the n63. I dont have any issues with mine and know many people in the same exact situation. Far more enjoyable to drive than any inline 6.

Does the S63B44B count? Fun, yes, but not impressed with it's reliability....and although not the N63, my N62B44A was no pleasure to own... While I have no emotion linked to my N55B30A, my V-8 ownerships absolutely have all been a love-and-hate relationship, which it shouldn't really be this emotional.....just saying. |

Plenty of low-mileage N55’s out there for under $5k. And $2500 sounds like a rip off to me. How hard can it be to swap some parts over and install the engine? |

When I get home in two weeks I am stripping my car and selling it to carvana for 8k. If anyone has any leads on a F30 335i or F10 535i for $15k let me know. |

I found this while looking while I am down in Florida.
https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-...ckType=listing Imperial Blue Oyster CA Logic 7 Soft Close Power trunk N52 The only bad thing is that the check engine light is on. I could legit take all of my parts of my 535i and put it on this car. |
