Just curious, but what would a "bolt on" EFI system for a similar vintage BMW cost?

Missing the point. Mercedes has made cars that don't really foster a strong performance following, save for some AMGs, but that group is small (as evidenced my MBCA) if anything. You don't see tons of C classes out every weekend racing, but you'll find e36s everywhere. You don't have a popular w201 series, yet you have an E30 NASA series. Go to any LeMons race and you'll see e30s dominating.
