Bring your own Benz.
!!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! I feel like last time I l looked at them, anyone you’d actually buy was in the low 40s. This is the year you want too, updated head bolts, updated interior, etc.
Not sure how I feel about the red on black, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! Although, I sort of want a red coupe for some reason.
Think in the next year, this could be a car I consider for real. I’m not think, I know it’ll cost more than my E92 to run, but then I would have an AMG to drive everyday.

He would yell, “TO HELL WITH GEORGIA,” like his daddy used to do.

Yes, story time with Oppo.

I think that’s how that works.

But what if you already had an E90 M3 and it’s going no where if you got this?

Good to know, might have to actually start shopping for one of these soon.

kid claimed he owned a C63AMG (was his user name)
Think he even took a picture of one on the street with his user name on a piece of paper and posted it as his own, until someone found him out and never posted again.
Can’t find traces in the search. But I’m sure other oppos remember better than i did. This was after the SR20 kid.

No performance package and, given the spec otherwise, probably no LSD--both of which I think are worth searching out--but seems like a pretty good deal otherwise!

Red W204's make me sad since mine is currently broken.

What’s wrong with it?

I’m not well enough versed to know the options that were available on these. Probably have to figure that out if I ever get serious. Would want one with at least an LSD. I’m still really perplexed as to why all of these didn’t come with an LSD.

Investigating that right now. Big problem with the transmission. Pulled the code and it says it’s losing connection with the TCM (transmission control unit). Can’t find any good info online about solutions/troubleshooting it.
I'm just glad this happened after I got the 335i back from getting the waterpump/thermostat changed. Might be time to sell the Benz after it gets fixed.

I am too, but I think at least most performance pack cars were also optioned with the LSD (for obvious reasons), so it’s not like it’s a rare option in the wild. If/when you get serious about shopping I’d be happy to share what I know from the prepurchase research I did and my ownership experience.

Should’ve just made it standard and increased the price, it’s not like these were cheap to begin with.
Ok awesome, if/when I do get serious I would like to hear all about your experience.

Doesn't sound fun, hopefully it's a pretty easy fix.

Put a new battery in and cleared the code again. Seems to have fixed it thankfully.

Good news. You going to sell it soon?

Definitely been thinking about it. I truly don't know what I want next though. My mind can't even decide what type of car to shop for lol.
