Default bimmer crew v. questions on 98 M3
buddy of mine is looking at a 4 door 98 M3...it has 137k on the clock which I thought was kinda high, but was wondering if there is anything specific to that year or type that we should be looking out for, known problems etc.

137k for a ten year old car doesn't seem extreme.

It's just higher than what i would have on a car i buy.
