I agree with you 100% brotha, I also remember this dude trying to sell his sick-off-the-hook rims because he was getting married????! People making close to that reaaaalllly kinda shouldn't have to do that....or buy Amuse copy frp bumpers? I dont know.........whatever, his posts are humorous so at least he's good with that!

Remember when we were 17? Did we really listen to other people? Op do whatever makes you happy. If this is the car for you and u have the money for it then go for it.. Shit when I was 17 i wanted a 94 supra or a 94 rx-7.. They were 40g's back then and that was alot of money for me..so I settled for a 92 hatch dropped a b16 in it and had a shit load of fun driving it.. Spent maybe 10,000 on everything and had no regrets..at your age tuner cars are so much more fun to drive..once u own a BMW there's no such thing as street parking. You'll have to park it in a garage or far away in a parking lot.. There's to owning a car like this, so be ready to make some real mature decisions..

Lol I won't take offense from Wilson because it was indirect. And he can't say I was "flaunting my salary" because I wasn't bragging, I was comparing REALISTICALLY what I can afford and NOT afford. And I have never once complained about being broke.

But since e92stance, u want to compliment my wheels one day and act cool with me on all my posts and now turn around and think you know who the fuck I am or what kind of bills I fuckin have, how bout you just shut the fuck up because you don't know shit ok??? I make $20+ an hour (won't say exactly due to e90 butt-hurt people thinking I'm "flaunting"). I do commercial building maintenance for Vornado Realty Trust. It's a Union job. I work 60 hours a week EVERY WEEK, plus I work 13 holidays a year that are DOUBLE-TIME AND A HALF, and work on weekends in the snow and 15 hour days in a blizzard, so I have PLENTY overtime on every paycheck.

I'm not gonna sit here and break down what my bills are but I have PLENTY.

I did try to sell my rims because my girls MOM didn't put up the money she was going to for her wedding dress so we were short. Why were we short? Because in 10 months I've spent $14,000 on her engagement ring, and nearly $20k on an all expense all inclusive wedding at a 5 star resort in Punta Cana Dominican Republic, ON TOP of paying all my bills and going out spending money on miscellaneous things to keep myself sane.


So next time keep ya shit to yourself because I have nobody to impress on here and everybody that knows me knows I don't ever flaunt shit. So go fuck yourself and the mods can ban me for all I give a fuck because u don't know me ******

dude not trying to get on ur case its a bad idea i will fax you my bills from bmw so far i have 48k miles i have had changed

1 clutch
both turbo's
4 taillights
3 headlights
3 fuel pumps
12 spark plugs
6 injectors
8 coilpacks
front and rear sway bars came loose
2 motor mounts
thermostate


this is all off the top of my head what i can remeber theres more but just so u can get an idea.... im trying to save you money

for 25k u can get a car with way less miles +cpo is the only way

i bought my car CPO not because i couldn't afford a new one i already bought a new e90 i change my cars very fast and not willing to loose much money... i spend 1 year searching for a whilte on red low miles manual fully loaded car... take your time find excactly what you want/need and you NEED warranty on this car

btw you better off with a older e46 m3 u can get a lightly used one for that price and those cars are better honestly

[J3NGOe90]

Im not fukin 17 im im going to turn 19 in two weeks so its kinda my birthday present , and ive drove alot of e46s with 140k miles and 2006 audi a4 with almost 150k they were ok, so i guess im gonna be the only one in the forum 335 with 100k miles? Ok ill let u guys know how it runs after 6 months it should be fine i guess u guys never drove car with high miles DONT PANIC

I think you are missing the point or just dont care what other experienced people are advising you..the cars you mentioned are non-turbo cars..Turbo cars are notoriously unreliable when they accumulate miles and more so w the 335i

I have driven plenty of cars w over 100K miles..hell my daily driver is an eclipse with 166K miles and its going strong..the only difference is that car is easy and cheap to fix..when you r crying at the dealer or at the parts counter b/c your having to replace parts or the car is sitting in frnt of your house b/c you cant afford to fix it..the one thing you cant say is you havent been told

[MikeyComputers]

gl bro ill sell u my car for 27 much better buy 2 years warranty left

[J3NGOe90]

I dont have 27k or i would buy something with less miles

[Easternedge]

" TOO MUCH MONEY AIGNT ENOUGH MONEY!!"

Any used bimmer will burn a whole in your pocket...

Saying that...
My 08 e90 335i:
5th HPFP
19's wheels/ tires Replaced frequently
Adding all these after market mods
and @ 50,230 miles- next day after I hit 50K.... Water pump blown + flush everything = $1G.

Lucky they did it on the house! Cars a time bomb, havent touched it in over a week, bought a new one instead!

This forum is full of "girls" who are afraid to touch their car. I learned how to change a water pump @ 17 and most of the problems you guys complain about like spark plugs can be changed in your driveway/ garage. If you guys sit down and really look @ a job and diy it will cost you less than half. Next time you guys wanna spend all that money PM me I could use the extra money since you guys like overpaying for stuff . OP I can get you oem parts for decent prices if you do get this car. Although that kind of mileage is considered abuse since its only 4 years old.

OK, well I'm definitely one of the youngins' on this forum, and I'm going to throw out something that you definitely haven't thought about yet (and it seems, no one else has mentioned either). Two Words: Car. Insurance.

You were in a Chevy Cav and a Suzuki Aeiro prior to this, cars that I know for a fact, insurance is low on. But you're still in the 16-21 bracket, and insurance on a 335 is not going to be cheap, especially if you've gotten in an accident before (I don't know if you have...I'm just saying).

OK, well it's really cool that you've gotten to drive some sweet cars, but do you own them? Nope. The E46s aren't turbo'd (but, the Audi may have been, so I'll give you that one). BMW's are notorious for maintenance costs, especially as the mileage goes up. I can do most small things myself, but there are times when going to the BMW dealership will be unavoidable...like, when your HPFP and/or turbo's go.

Now, you're young, and clearly not listening to any of us. But let me just provide you with one quick little financial lesson:
Adjustable rate mortgages sold like hotcakes in the 2000s, as American families wanted to move in to bigger and more expensive homes, without a proportional increase in salaries. When lenders told them they could live in a multimillion-dollar house without a salary to support that, they totally didn't listen to logic and reason (or were fiscally uneducated) and took out an adjustable-rate mortgage. After their introductory period was over and their interest rates went up, they were unable to keep up their mortgage payments, and lost everything.

What you're doing is not listening to logic and reason, and buying in to this potentially-toxic asset. When those repair bills, insurance costs, oh and PREMIUM gas bills (that I imagine are going to be high due to the nature of city driving, and more so because it's New York!) pile up, you're going to realize you made a huge mistake.

If you really, really want a high-performance BMW, look at this:
http://autos.yahoo.com/used-cars/bmw...mw&distance=30
It's been worked on, it's in Brooklyn, and it's got about half the miles.
Or better yet, get a 330 E46 coupe.

[DTrain17]

i'm more than likely gonna get some $hit for this but why not get a 328? its a decent look and is reliable... granted i would have purchased a 335 myself if at the time i had the extra cash to put down, but it was my first bmw so it was pretty fast for me already...i dont take it to the meets in glen cove cause 1) i live literally 1 block away and 2) its not a 335 lol... either way a 335 is over your budget...good luck op.

[itsbrokeagain]

I got my 335 when I worked at the dealer 4 years ago. Just making a car payment on shitty tech pay was hard enough, and it was pretty cheap by todays standards.

I do maintain a lot of these for a living, and they do have their ups and downs, but my rates for usually everything are a lot cheaper than the dealer...I have done everything with the exception of vanos units, which I migh just buy the tools for and start doing them.

I have plenty of customers in the over 50k bracket, and many of their cars run just fine with the exception of maybe an intake valve cleaning, sparkplugs and oil changes.

If you think you can afford it, go for it, but there will always be an unplanned expense that might set you back quite a bit.

For 3k more I could jump into a decent mileage mid-80s 911. Now THAT is a fun car to own, and it prolly costs as much to maintain as some of these peoples BMWs on here.
