In this episode of ‘Behind The Wheel’ we hear Benny tell us his story of how he got into cars, his 1 of 10 Hartge H50 V10, and how the car came to be. The H50 V10 was originally a 325i purchased in 2006 by Will Turner and subsequently sent out to Hartge in Germany for the conversion. According to Will Turner, the car is the only one in the USA.

And Hartge went bankrupt around 10 years ago, so this car is a piece of history.

Call me mad but this engine has to be in the top 5 of best sounding engines. I’m still looking for a 07 M5 V10 with a decent motor to swap into either a crown vic or a 09 M3 couple with the V8. Both cars are absolutely gorgeous in every which way shape and form, it’ll just be nuts to put the V10 in the M3 chassis. Great video story and even better car 🤘🏾

@driveri1435 Месяц назад

They sound insane. No other manufacturer has been able t replicate the sound of this BMW V10. As a car enthusiast, when you heard it, you knew what it was.

@iSOBigD Месяц назад

One random night I ended up driving next to a guy who was driving aggressively in an M6 coupe with a V10 engine and straight piped exhaust...it sounded so good. It had the great V10 scream and pops and bangs too, it's one of the best exhausts I've heard in person, and I find the M6 looks more sporty and aggressive so it fits that car better than a 5 or 3 series.

@snow41man Месяц назад

Winning Bid USD $58,500 by Tampasushi - At least start with a 335 at that point M3. Why they used a 325i is beyond me. That engine sound though!

@TheEuroHaus Месяц назад

In 2006 there were only two options for the E90 platform: the 325i and the 330i. The 325i had a starting MSRP of $30,995. The 335i came out the following year for a base MSRP of $39,675 and the M3 came out the following year after that for a base MSRP of $55,875. Regardless if you agree with the choice or not, Will Turner decided to buy a 325i in 2006 and have Hartge do the conversion. The story behind the car will always be a cool one to hear.

@DeclanCrane Месяц назад

What would be the point anyways? Interior and chassis are the only thing original to the 325i I'd imagine.

@snow41man Месяц назад

@@TheEuroHaus Ahh did not realize it was a 2006 - yea that makes sense for sure for not going with the M3. Will is awesome been to his shop "Turner Motorsport" a handful of times to buy parts and also BMW events. Awesome story for sure.

@snow41man Месяц назад

@@DeclanCrane 335i not any tbh but M3 Looks to start, Pre-LCE E90 are not a very attractive car, LCI looks a lot better. Plus lots of suspension upgrades and clearance ect. Im sure they changed a lot of that but being a 2006 M3 was not released yet. From doing a lot of E6X upgrades to M5 parts a lot is changed from increased fitment to beefer bearings, bolts, bushings ect ect. Would be really cool to put this on a lift and see the changes uplose. That sound is amazing though.

Would be better to just find an original M5 in good condition. I don't see the specialness in this modded car given it's a 325 that they have thrown in parts from a donor M5 and decorated with some new badges. All it means is an original M5 is more special.

@TheEuroHaus Месяц назад

I think it’s all about perspective! This is unique because much like you have pointed out why a 325i? Why do people put an LS in a Miata? It has a place although some will disagree it’s still something different that we think any enthusiast can appreciate!

@BurntOrangeHorn78 Месяц назад

This car is about 350 lbs. lighter than an E60.

@a8f235 Месяц назад

@@BurntOrangeHorn78 That doesn't mean anything, we're talking about street cars here, and total weight alone is just a number. How does the total package perform, and if you're going to talk about trackdays you know anyone can modify an M5 further as well if that's what it takes. Personally I would simply take an original M5 any day of the week over that car because you know it was intended to be that way, or an M3.

@BurntOrangeHorn78 Месяц назад

@@a8f235 I would say 350 lbs. less mass is not insignificant. E90 was also a later design than the E60. As long as it was not tremendously nose heavy, the S85 in an E90 should be fine.
