I love the BMWs but at some point I always ask myself if another platform is better starting point
Very true. I'm a die hard BMW guy, but the newest Vette is the best bang for the buck. Great looks and more power than anything in that price range. The reviews are all outstanding!

For OP, depending on hp, tq, track handling, daily driver goals there seem to be easier routes than an engine swap. A modified N54 with cooling, suspension, LSD, and brakes, or even C6,C7 Vette would be easier on the wallet, and piece of mind.
