I just bought from my job a 98 BMW M3, should be driving it on the road by Monday. Here's a picture of it. The interior is perfect, the car runs great. Really like it, it's pure Got it for only $5000 since I work there and all.

Thinking about just tinting the windows and not doing anything else to it beside maybe add a unit like this
almost bought the 3000GT below from my job but they sold it for like $6000 while I was still trying to get the cash together to buy it for $5000.

I like the BMW better though.

So you guys like? Think the 3000Gt would have been better? Don't give a fuck?

BTW the BMW has more HP than the 3000GT I was going to get.

BMW ftw. I have the not-quite-so-fast version

But I actually like not having to drive stick. That's what my Del Sol is for, heh.

Obviously you could have enough cash for it, I'm just surprised the insurance company you're on looked at that and went "19 year old in an M3? BAHAHA. No."

At least that's what we get in the UK

insurance is a whole different ballgame in the uk. so is driving as a whole, really. right from qualification through to finance.

nice ride, macbeth. gotta love the m3.

german trash? could you be any more wrong? it's a beaut of an automobile. show me a british car you could get for $5k second-hand that wouldnt qualify as 'trash', please. you won't be able to.

I like the M3, but I'm not too find of the silver. Black or the dark dark green (forest? I dunno, I'm a guy) would look much better.

I take it you work for a used car dealer? What's your position?

Auto Tech.

Hence my great hatred for the Car spotting thread.

Not really an expert at it, just do a lot of basic things but it pays very well. So it's all good.

Actually a teenager with a sportscar will raise your rate over here too. So will certain colors of cars. It used to be a V6=$$$ while a V8=$$$$$$.. not sure if it still is.

I doubt it's as ridiculous as here. Where 17-20 year olds cheapest quote is at least 2k.

My insurance on my 1.2 was £6600 at my home. Obviously I've put my Dad's address down and it's gone down to £2500, still like 3 times the value of the car.
