    I recently asked the price of the BMW 5.0 litre V10. Im sure this can fit in the X5 bay.
    but it is a bit pricey.

    For that money you can do so much more. 35k for an engine is insane.

    Yes but it is a piece of motoring history. And think about it you will have a MX-5


    Or you could try the 400HP 6.0 litre corvette motor. Or the new 4.4 litre supercharged V8 from the STS-V.

    BTW how much do you want to spend on this project?

    With deep enough pockets, anything is possible.

    Someone has to say it, so it might as well be me.

    You're not going to do it.
    1- you don't have the money.
    2- even if you did, you don't have the know-how. If you did, you wouldn't be on here asking.
    3- I wish I had a dime for every fantasy swap thread I've seen in my life. I'd own a small country.

    Prove me wrong.

    BMW has done this, search for the X5 Le Mans edition.

    If Ihad the money for the new M5 I would probably have enough for just the engine and in that case I would make it my freaking coffee table. You know, just for show.

    And I would have deep pockets.
