Carmax is the best thing since the Miata.

Do it. Last high revving NA 3 series, last V8 M3 car + the sweet cushy insulation of the Maxcare warranty if you opt for it. No reason at all not to do this. If you don't, *I will, so get moving.

*(actually no, I won't. No monies. But someone else with monies will into V8 M3, so the threat is still real! Get moving!)

I feel like we don't utilize Archer gifs here enough.

I know! I'm talking to the wife, she already threw me for a loop. She said "Can we keep the same payments?" .. Shit... help? lol

In case I wasn't clear - BUY IT ASAP! AS IN TOMORROW!

"I will set fire to this neighborhood if you block me getting this car."

This option is kind of extreme, and may destroy your marriage. But, as a bonus, you could also obtain the complicity of an entire neighborhood out of fear along with the M3. The downsides are if you're are called on your bluff, in which case, you'll have to follow through and Johnny Storm the neighborhood. To teach her (and all those other maggots) a lesson; NONE shall live to oppose the will of Warlord Miguel Solano.

No, but they make great giffable material.

You will not regret it, especially if you get the Carmax warranty.

The 2010 and up cars should be very reliable. I have a 2011 E90 M3. I haven't had a single issue yet. I had one weird phantom noise but it went away before I could take it into the dealer. I'm still under the factory warranty right now.

As long as you don't have a really long commute that will make the gas mileage tough on your wallet you can't go wrong with this car. As Matt Farah said it doesn't get an A+ in any one area but it's above average in all areas. And that's what makes it so special. It has more than enough power for the street and you never feel like it's too small, not luxurious enough, etc. You can DD it it 365 days a year.

Shit............... I commute 10 miles daily per way all freeway... Man I am too logical. You're giving me all the logical answers. Don't do this to me!

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/05/2014 at 21:18

Haha sorry, I'm not going to talk you out of this one.

10 miles per way all freeway is similar to my 5 mile on surface street commute. No prob at all.

remove the tint, and the smoked tails/bumper reflectors

All of the smoked lights look just horrid. If you do buy it, please get rid of that stuff, haha.

Otherwise, crazy nice find!

You find this, I find a Lime Rock Park Edition yesterday. God damn CarMax's M3 game is ON. POINT.

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 22:33

Gr.. I know. The wife is about to start med school. That is the ONLY thing that makes me think three times before doing it

Lekker > N51fanatic
05/05/2014 at 22:33

I sort of like the smoked tails, but not that dark. More like an actual smoke, not blacked out.

Soooo muuuuuuch wannnnttttttttttt

Right? I almost want to drive the few hour drive to go see it

Lekker > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
05/05/2014 at 22:35

Right?! This is just... er mer gerd... And they had MANY to choose from, I mean MANY

They had like 10 V10 M5s too.

Lekker > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
05/05/2014 at 22:38

I'm in love with carmax right now. If I had a Facebook I'd post that as my status. But I don't. So I will just continue to browse their adds until my wife gives on a nice german car she likes that has Ze M Badge!

Logansteno: Bought a VW? > Lekker

I saw an '06 Z4M for $25k. That's FR-S money for M performance.

I love me some clown shoe M.

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker

This car will help her get through med school! Anytime she is stressed out and sick of studying you'll take her for a drive or let her take the car out. That will clear her head!

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 23:01

>:/ I am working across the country for 2 years. She wouldn't even get to drive in it. Damnit man. Why is being responsible so hard

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/05/2014 at 23:03

Oh wow! That must be tough being separated for that long!!

The most long distance any of my relationships have been were one county over, haha

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 23:05

Yeah. It is. And with her starting med school in two months, it will be WAY worse. But alas. That is why I told her, I need something to ease my mind :D buuuut she said its still 20k blah blah blah...but she is right. Aaaaanyway. Yeah I had one one country over as well, only lasted 2 months until she cheated, blah.

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/05/2014 at 23:08

You're right, you need something to pass the time and ease the mind! The car is the perfect thing for that. Especially because M3s are total dude magnets. I never get attention from girls in my car. But random dudes compliment it, haha.

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 23:12

Hahaha totally the same with my current car. I've had 1 girl ask me, and she worked at a mechanic shop. The rest is all dudes. But she doesn't quite understand that.

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/05/2014 at 23:16

I think it would only stand out to girls that aren't gearheads if:

1) It was orange or yellow

2) It had a widebody kit and lots of stickers

Since neither are true you'll be safe :)

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 23:18

This is true. Except for the purty Tri colored stripes. Which I VERY much like..

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/05/2014 at 23:21

So do I! Very classy. And very understated.

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 23:23

Right? Subtle but noticeable. Such a classy addition. Arghhgh.... I need... it....

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/05/2014 at 23:26

Now I want them on my car, haha

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/05/2014 at 23:47

Do it... do it...

Also, pics of yours?

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/06/2014 at 00:00

I just might! I wonder who put the stripes on the one for sale? After market or done by the factory or dealer?

Here are the most recent pics. Not great shots but I was so happy to have 2 of the cars cleaned on the same day. That had never happened before.

Kinja'd!!!

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/06/2014 at 00:02

With all due respect, I .... am so happy for you. Great stable you've acquired. I've also considered a Cayman GTS, but the prices are...well.. out of reach

Manuél Ferrari > Lekker
05/06/2014 at 00:08

Thank you!!!

I'm sure you'll be able to get the Cayman GTS later. Anything is possible with hard work. I'm already in the 17th year of my career so I started a while ago...

The Cayman GTS seems like an amazing car.

Lekker > Manuél Ferrari
05/06/2014 at 09:08

If I don't buy it now I will end up buying a 911 later. And I guess it is worth noting this is the first year of my career. Still not a whole year yet.

So I've got a question. Have you done long distance driving in the e90? I do a lot of that myself, mostly to visit the wife. And eventually to move back home carrying all my belongings.

E92M3 > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
05/06/2014 at 19:18

For $10K more I'd get that Lime Rock. Should hold it's value better in the long run assuming you don't put TOO many miles on it every year.
