B38 Performance

Neo Soli · 03-27-2022, 07:09 AM

Believe it or not, I'm looking forward to buy a used F30 with N55 engine (2015)
But I'm blown away by how the F32 looks, the problem is that it comes with B38 engine (2015,2016,2017) and the same price as the F30 N55

I'm thinking of getting the F32 and if the B38 gone bad after sometime or if i had some extra cash, I can retrofit it with B58 engine.

I'm open to any suggestions.
Thanks

My personal suggestion would be to get the car that has the engine you want inside it already.

You will spend far more trying to do an engine swap and get nothing back that you put in.

Id save up and wait until I could get a model with the B58 if that is your ultimate goal.
