alright some retared hit my car about two weeks ago. my car is in the body shop now. the owner of the body shop told me he will fix my car and will give me 1000 cash thats left over. well i saw a 2000 bmw 328i that he has their. he told me he bought it for cheap with a blown motor but he got a motor swap done to it. the owner told me that if i give him my stang and 3000 dollars the bmw will be myns. the car is butifuel and has been treated very well. i know if i buy it i will miss my stang. and i did some research and theirs nothing realy to do aftermarket wise. but the bmw is in alot better condishion then my car. my question is what would you guys do?? i realy need some help on this one

Take deal #1, fix and $1000. cash.
Then sell your car yourself and get what you want.
BMW's can be a money pit if anything breaks.... His deal sounds like a scam.

Skip the BMW.

Couldn't have been too well taken care of if the motor blew up on it... Plus, like said above parts are VERY expensive.

Get your car back and bank the 1k or spend it however you want. Either way, you are getting a better deal.

I agree with everyone else, you should keep the stang. You could spend the grand on a Pi swap, and maybe even some aftermarket cams to go with the Pi heads.
