About how much, including parts and labor (i sure as hell won't be able to do it myself) would it cost to change out a QR for a VQ (if this is even possible)?

Not planning to do this anytime soon, but maybe like 10 years down the road, instead of getting a whole new car...

I'm thinking no more than $5k to do the swap. that's including the motor, electronics, wiring, etc. With that amount, in 10yrs, mights as well buy a whole new car Your ROI would be 0

probably somewhere along the lines of "not worth it" and "don't do it"
