So in the last few days I took my father to see the car and he liked it too so I put a small amount of money down to hold the car for the week while I get shit sorted out. Well that day was Saturday my only off day for the next week and a half is Tuesday, most shops are closed Sundays, so that left me with today to schedule a PPI, for tomorrow. Luckily, the first shop I called said yes I could come in anytime...awesome I thought so I called the dealer and talked to the sales manager who said it shouldn't be a problem and that he wanted his mechanic to take a look at the car today as well. I thought that was a little weird but whatever no biggie.

I think I was wrong.

That was around 2pm when I took my lunch which is the only time I can use my phone because my job deals with personal information so no phones in the building. I got out of work at 8pm with 2 missed calls from the dealer. I can't get voicemails because whatever system verizon uses sucks, so I can't even listen to the messages if he left any. I'm worried that I won't be able to take the car tomorrow and have to wait till sometime late next week, which is just really more annoying than anything. Hopefully it is something like he wants me to bring my insurance card with me or something.

I'll know more in the AM.

Any links to the e46 you want to get? TELL THE PPI SHOP TO CHECK THE REAR SUBFRAME. Otherwise I know of quite a few m3's with over 150k miles and only needed waterpumps. They're great cars and a bargain if you can find a mint one for less then 20k.

I wish my dad was stupid enough to let me buy a used M3 when I was younger.

Kidding... Enjoy it!

Thats probably the first thing I want them to look at and then test if the A/C system is good because I haven't had working A/C in about 4 years.

Congrats! At 20 I had an E39 M5, at 22 I had an E46 M3. Enjoy in good health! Keep an eye on oil levels and make sure you don't neglect it. You will pay the consequences.

Man going from no ac to a m3 is nice, your going to love it. E46s are a bit more raw then my e92 but they're really comfortable grand tourers that can take corners faster then most sports cars. I'd pick one up (specifically carbon black on cinnamon) if I didn't already decide to get a bug eye wrx and build it to a sti. Gl finding a really mint one and don't compromise to much. I can nearly guarantee you can call it an investment in a few more years.
