I think I found fun and reliable. The question is does 6'4" me fit in an MR2?

True. Who needs a roof anyway?

Exactly. Just not use the roof. And you could go jeep style and ditch the doors too

Not likely. I’m only 6'0 and with a helmet on I don’t fit into a sunroof model SW20 and I believe there is actually less headroom with t tops.

It depends on where that length goes... Legs, you should fit... otherwise... might be hard.

I’m a strong believer that if you WANT to fit, you will lol. I’m 6"2 myself and fit in my father’s A110 wihout any problem. Same goes for the AZ-1 or the Cappucino so...

Indulge me. Are you the 4th owner of the M3? I’ll explain why I ask after I know the answer.

According to autocheck I’m the 8th . I’m kinda refusing to believe that an 18 year old car has gone through that many people though.

If it makes you fell better you might actually fit in a Gen 1 AW11 MR2, my best friend is 6'3 and didn’t have any real complaints when he was in mine.

As said elsewhere take the T-Tops out. T-Tops will probably leak anyway witha 25 year old car

Ifyou could it’d be tight. Afaik they’re around the size of the ND. Maybe slightly larger.

The MR2 is way more reliable.

It’s an 8 owner ‘90s BMW. Not exactly a bastion of reliability. Plus, at 17, I'm sure your insurance company agrees with me.

Moving from state to state, as well as the removal of a lien can all count towards that total. The actual amount might be lower.

Which one of us is the one who had to get a new car because the axle decided it was done being an axle?

Pretty sure it wasn’t me.

On top of that, the insurance is no more than the Safari’s was, so.

Better to die driving an MR2 than live with driving an M3.

I’m thinking it’s more along the lines of 4 or 5 because there were gaps of only a month between “owners” on there.

Why are people on here such dicks about your car? It’s an M3 and you’ve done a lot of work to it. That’s the oppo way is it not?

It’s fixed now. The difference being it cost $500 for a CV joint, driveshaft, bearing, and alignment to get done at the dealer for me, when you’d be looking at that in parts alone, had what happened to me happend to you. AAAAAAND now I have 2 cars. My boat for fun and my boring commuter that's all around great at being a car for everything else.

I have no idea. Well, I do and it has to do with it lacking a 3rd pedal. I thought I was doing something good saving an M3 from death but it’s whatever. Hater’s gonna hate, yo.

Pretty sure the cheapness comes from your car being a Pontiac with a Cadillac badge but congrats? I’m sure it was your step dad’s dealership that did it anyway so that point is entirely moot.


Kinja'd!!! Your boy, BJR > Logansteno: Bought a VW?
02/22/2016 at 00:09

Kinja'd!!!1

Actually they didn’t, it broke down too far from there for AAA to tow it for free, but I’ll give ya points for trying.

And your car, being a North American M3 is more of a 328i with an M badge than my Cadillac is a Pontiac.


Kinja'd!!! Logansteno: Bought a VW? > Your boy, BJR
02/22/2016 at 00:11

Sure thing bud.

Even if my car is just a “328i with an M badge” (which you're so wrong it's hilarious), it’s still better than a fucking Deville.

So do you, um, enjoy being an ass to people on the internet? Is this honestly the best use of your resources? If it is, it’s seriously quite depressing to see. I feel just a slight bit of sadness for that.

Appreciate the reply. It’s comforting when someone in their 20s acts like they’re 10. With that I wish you good luck with your life, and hope one day you rise above being condescending to 17 year olds on an internet forum. God bless your heart.

You can’t be 8th. The guy who bought the M3 new and the guy after him took great care of it. Third owners are generally pretty nice too but sometimes don’t have the cash for maintenance and skip or half-ass it. Or they beat the shit out of it. The 3rd-6th owners have to be careful shoppers. 7th and on are restoring or parting out. You’d probably be wise to sell it, but man, going from a M3 to a MR2? I really like the MR2's but it’s a different animal. However it’s a great DD while you turn the M3 into a rally car....

Cool cars these :) used to go on trackdays with a friend and her dad in one of these. He’s over 6 foot and fit in fine. Had to take the T-tops out to wear a helmet though...

As long as it is a t-top car you’ll fit.
