Feeler: Getrag 245 M20/M42 dog-leg transmission

Price: $2500

Location: Mountain View, CA

Description:

Getrag 245, close ratio dog-leg transmission out of a 1980 323i in good condition.

 

I'm more interested in figuring out the value at this point. If it's worth a lot more than I paid, I'll have a tough time installing it in my car. I'm half hoping I got a great deal, and half hoping I can use it on my M42 swap.

So you got nothing for sale and just wondering what people want to pay for it?

Everybody is all about the money in these here parts.

Did you pay $2500? That's a fair price if its solid.

If it is worth significantly more than I paid for it, then I will be selling it. For now, I'm just trying to assess the market value.

Maybe you can fine tune your assessment of the value by giving more specifics I.e. how many miles are on the transmission, do any of the seals leak, were the seals replaced, etc..

if it's from an e21 323i it'll fit m20 motors only. If you have an m20 in your car you're set! Otherwise I don't think it'll fit on an m42 or an m10... great for m20 swaps not so great for anything else... sounds like you bought a transmission on a whim
