Didn't know that...hmm...

I don't want to simply ditch the car I have, the chassis is in excellent condition and I can't sell it as is (with the oil issue). So I will probably swap an engine in, rather than buy another car. E55s are more rare up here and command more of a premium.

Now you guys have me thinking about an E55 engine...
