Have fun with maintenance on that Bimmer. If you complain about 240 parts being expensive, you'd better prepare yourself with some Vasoline for the BMW assramming train that's gonna come to town.

Do some research on how much the VANOS costs and how often it craps out.

yeah i know, i have been researching, been talkin to people that own them, and as stupid as it sounds i dont really care, im making enough money, its a car ive wanted since i learned about it

also about finding a link for one, took like 2 minutes even on ebay here is one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Cars-...=p4506.c0.m245

It's nice but they just seem a bit...uh...feminine.

[S14_Silvia_SE]

wow, never heard anyone call an m3 feminine

[presidential]

I guess I'd like them more if you saw more "normal" looking guys driving them instead of metro douchebags and college chicks with the Paris Hilton facegoggle sunglasses.

my ek coupe was under 2k, has ac, and rides well. s13 hangs out in the garage. keep the money in the bank, buy different wheels, and a stack of the new kumho mx's/ hoosiers buy a stack of bumpers to destroy, die in turn 17.

I definitely would advise on a clean headache free DD, I love not giving a damn when the 240 is broken.

Now is a bad ass time to get into a house or at least be open to the idea in the next year or so, with banks writing off all this bad debt, when you offer 40% less than the asking price on their already undervalued for closure thats wracking up county ordinance violation fees they won't even counter offer and you'll say fuck! I meant to offer 60% less! but you'll still be paying a smaller mortgage on a three bedroom house than most throw away in rent every month a 2 bedroom no garage no parking restrictions out your ass apartment.

yeah, m3's are feminine, macho dudes drive s13's.
a car marketed towards women.

get real.
sure theyre expensive to maintain, but who gives a shit. if its what he wants, rad. go for it.
if it was me personally, id get a 330ci, and spend the leftover on aftermarket shit.
but it isnt, so m3 or bust.

[paul kersey]

also, its entertaining that matt never mentioned a bmw, some idiot did, and now its all everyone wants to talk about.

i can honestly never see matt owning a bmw.

Go drive your Civic, Tim.

im married to this car, there's no way in hell i'm getting anything else for a 'fun' car. daily driver, maybe, probably, yeah, but i dunno. i'll probably just get a 2002 prius with blown batteries for dirty cheap and fix that beast up.

[paul kersey]

go spraypaint your car.

haha, dude, i was just coming back here to say.
prius dd, first gen, and i can help when i can.
theyre not that complicated, keep s13, and loosely base the rest on what me, justin and chris said.

true story:


black 2002 prius + 70 macbook batteries + bronze or dark green/grey te37s in 14s + greddy SP muffler + painted on PV cell hood + trunk + wing ( looks just like CF lolz) + downspring + RE92(lolll) = 70mpg win.
