I have a Camry but this new job got me planning for a 2nd car. No 2 seaters but 2 doors okay. The Camry will be my daily driver. Need some answers:

Which year and models are most reliable?
Dont buy a BMW with more than ____ miles (remember i live in a highway city).
BMW is better than Benz because?
Stay away from which (year) (model)

I wish I could chime in but I just got my bmw last week. But it was a 2009 M3 coupe with 78k miles. Some of my boys bought 328i with more than 80k miles and never had an issue.

IMO when you drive a BMW you feel connected(heavy steering feel) to the road and in a Benz it feels like you're floating(light steering wheel feel).

Bought it at 85k it now has ~140k. I did most of the work myself suspension, vanos, fuel pump. They are great cars they do like expensive oil 10w-60 tho. They handle liek a smaller car and has the torque of a muscle car. I drove my boy's v10 m5 and I like mine waaaayyyyyy more. If you look at the lists of all time M cars the e39 is always top 2/3. I am going to sell her soon. I want to focus on my Supra.

nice, I want to learn how to work on my M3 myself. But I have no clue what tools to get first. Beside a jack and atorque wrench.

Get a code reader that will save you $$. You wont have to depend on dealers for a check engine light.

Get this one it can read code and reset lights. I even used it on my wife's 2012 x3

i think i want to swap a ls1 into my e46 convertible, i want to kill all the amgs at the runs this summer

Aight brehs I made some minor purchases to add to my BMW experience. 1st are some red rubber BMW floor mats...I hate dealing with cloth floor mats. Also being ordered are the BMW door logo holographic lights and red interior mood lights. Also bought a car cover and a red leather key fob holder. This weekend I'm hitting up a stereo place to add a lil bit of slap, not too much but I want sound improvement. I don't think I'm gonna do anything serious since I'll be trading it in in 2 more years

go crazy with the speakers and equipment breh, you can always take them out and put them in your next car!

435i. i'll post pics when i get it back

Wanted one in the worse way but $$$ wise didn't make sense at the time so just copped the 5-series.

 

[SchrodingersStrapped!]

Would a E39 525i be a reasonable first car ??
