Good ones are running $8,000 to $15,000 + $3,000 for the swap, not counting the larger wheels and suspension upgrades. 10/19/2009 11:11:20 PM     Screen Name Comments   Stenzgr I don't think there are 3 HennaRots in Oahu. Check the e30 m3 registration site; the count is 47 HennaRots left in USA, mine is #14. They may be Cinnebon Red, but not HennaRots. 10/19/2009 11:07:49 PM     Screen Name Comments   DirtE30 Beautiful car, but I assure you, there are way more than 50 left in the states. I know of three on the island of Oahu right now down here in Hawaii. Im hoping to do an S14 swap into my 91 318is someday soon. 10/3/2009 11:37:04 AM     Screen Name Comments   jhubbell its sweet gave a 10 appreciate the same 56 chev 10/1/2009 8:02:20 AM     Screen Name Comments   AYM I love your car.
