Confirmed to be a joke. The shop put it in there just for the pic while they stiffened the Tesla's chassis up some more and did other minor mods. The LS went into a different customer's car.
VW Golf MK I with a V8 from a 928 in it.
Those Germadmen actually widened THE WHOLE FUCKING CAR just to make the engine fit.

Eliminated the dipstick and drain plug.

Actually, that Golf is literally a 928 with a Golf bodykit.
It's even registered as Porsche 928

An M20 is like a 6 cylinder redblock with better head design, they're strong and long lasting as fuck.

but that's a waste of money
>>16250001
i wanna do this as well, wondering how much the labor would cost though
>>16250021
would rather rotary swap a C3 or C2
>>16250001
>implying the legendary old inline6 aren't reliable
>>16250001
Just get an S2000

You can't be serious.
If you want this, you fucking have to know how to do it AND do it by yourself.
Or pay out of your fucking ass, of course.
>>16250056
pretty average cost as far a swaps go, there's kits made for ls/e39

e39's are pretty cheap now because people don't want to pay to maintain them. my mom has a 528i 5spd rotting away in her driveway while she drives an is350, wish I had the cash to do something with it.
>>16250072
not much wrong with the motor/trans but shit plastics/rubber on the motor and cooling system will break long before any japanese/american counterparts and cause other problems. plus maintenance is a bit more demanding. would be cheaper to maintain than swapping an LS obviously but not as fun.
>>16250175
thats actually a really complete kit, what trannies do people use? most ls engines i see online come with a auto.

Labor? HA
Even doing it by yourself costs a fuck ton.
