It's modded h:

I wouldn't buy it. I'd rather pay a little more and get it from the dealer. For me, piece of mind, the build date still is questionable.

:edit: After reading it more, I didn't know it was sold by the dealer, it's covered by the dealer warantee, so it's not that bad...

even if it wasn't sold by the dealer, the factory warranty is still valid.

If you mean a new Steel Grey it's not possible. That color was discontinued in early 02.


I guess you could say I might be responsible for him going to a M car :rick:

Last time I was there was when one of my friends were looking for 7-series'. I do remember the salesguy was pretty cool and open to helping us. Nice place. Thanks for the tip, I'll let you know if anything.

Heh, well it's not too often I see a new M3 for this cheap filled with options.

Here's my pros/cons:

+It breaks necks
+Closest to my 'teg in terms of power
+F'cking loaded with everything I need
+It has rear seats, something the S2k and Z don't have so I can throw all my buddies in there
+Has more in common with my car than the others (8k redline and SSR wheels)
-Most expensive car out of the group, payments can be a pain
-Maintainence could charge up the butthole
-Yes, the color can have its good and bad days
-I hate that raspy sound (but then again I'll just buy a UUC X-pipe to get rid of that)
-Who knows if it's going to be around come next month

Maintainence is paid for by BMW for the first 3year/36K miles So you have one service or so remaining. Second you can change the oil yourself The oil however is expensive and can only be purchased from the dealer 10-60W and you have to use that oil or your extended warranty is void.

As for the "Inspections I and II" you can do these yourself. 90% of it is literally inspection as in check the fluid levels, wiper blades, brake pad, etc.

Color... No comment.

I actually like the rasp now. You get used to it and it reminds me a little of F1 cars
