I'm looking to purchase an automobile...

[S O F I]

lol.

Anyway, I want to cop a whip (laughs at change of tone) by summer time. My budget is 15,000 cash. And no, I did not get it from daddy, puff.

Best car for the money? Think about a car you always wanted in that price range but didn't purchase for whatever reason or something?


Anyway, as far as beemers go....do M3's pretty much beat out most other beemers except the newer M5's or whatever...yes, I don't know shit.

 

[DarkPhantom13]

So your mommy gave you the money?

 

[ARon]

I love M3's, Umm but you wont find a nice one til you start reaching the 20k+ mark. I'm talking about the E46's. It's not like an E36 is bad by no means but when the E46 came out....a lot of people still consider it one of the best cars ever made. As far as M5's go you'd probably have to look at the E34 which is really good too. The style is a little dated but it's still a great car. But yeah M3's beat out all BMW's besides the M5 or M6. Even the E34 M5 which is early 90's has about the same Hp as the E46, the E46 has like 20 more Hp I think. It doesn't really matter though cus the M3 does 0-60 about a second faster, it's that tight

 

[PuffnScruff]

damn student loans gave you 15grand for a car?

 

[Sebastian]

15000$??!!

 

[S O F I]

I'd rather you guys help me with what I'm asking.

But, if you must know, I netted a pretty good sum of money for my car accident last August when I got hit by a semi-truck.

 

[PuffnScruff]

so are you looking for new or used?

 

[S O F I]

I don't want a nissan versa or a mazda. I want something with flash and quality. So, that answers it.

Get something less harmful for the environment and that's cheap when it comes to using gas. Spend the rest of the money on prostitutes. A car may last a while but AIDS will be with you for the rest of your life.

Thanks. I used to like the RSX like some 5 years ago, not anymore though. I do like the black beemer.

What do you guys think of this?

Ten years old, 86,000k. http://autos.yahoo.com/used-cars/bm...istingtype=used&model=m3&make=bmw&distance=75

 

[PuffnScruff]

thats a nice m3. the only thing i dont like is that it is an automatic

 

[DeeezNuuuts83]

I don't want a nissan versa or a mazda. I want something with flash and quality. So, that answers it.

It's hard to get something decent for that price while having "flash and quality." That M3 doesn't look bad, but I'd stay away from pre-owned BMWs, especially with anything over 30k miles unless it comes with an AWESOME extended warranty. These things fall apart after they rack on some miles.

 

[dillaxx]

buy a yugo....

if not, this one looked really nice..

Stay away from M3's, you'll probably kill yourself.

And how the hell did you get your grubby mitts on 15 thou?

 

[S O F I]

Stay away from M3's, you'll probably kill yourself.

I'm not an adrenaline junkie. I'd be fine. It's what Deez pointed out as well as other people, if it has more than 30,000 miles on it, it starts to have electrical problems and shit. ANd I can't get an M3 with 30k for 15 G's. More like for 25.

And how the hell did you get your grubby mitts on 15 thou?

I chased the American Dream.

 

[dillaxx]

then just get a small toyota, hyundai or honda... good on gas, and most can still hold alotta stuff..

 

[S O F I]

Naw, i'm european. I have pride and ego.

 

[Get In The Van I Have Candy]

Well I drive a 3 series BMW and enjoy it. The only thing that I don't like is it is not big enough for people in the back. Too small but the 7 series is where the space is. M3's are nice but expensive. Have you thought about the 1 series BMW's coming out in the near future?

 

[S O F I]

^My budget hovers around $15,000.
