Id have to say that Im kinda on Will's side on this one. I love driving my car and putting miles on it. Keeping it locked up in the garage all weekend just disturbs me

 

lol I'm not saying lock the damn thing in the garage.

Ex) If I go out to some place that has crap parking... would I want to drive an M3 there, HELL NO.

 

I used to drive my car for the hell of it. Either taking the long way home or just cruizing around. I haven't done it in a while, but still want to.

 

i daily drive my car. its cheaper to jus pay the little repair of a scratch or something small that happens when someone cratches ur car or hits it with their door then buy another car for a beater and pay another insurance note.

 

Hehe, all those little scratches add up. You can say I have "little" scratches too but I'm going to get the whole car painted once its not the DD.

Aside from that, not everything fits in the Z. If I had an Accord or something... at least I could put an ironing board in the damn thing with it chillin' right next to my head.

 

I know of someone selling their M3.

 

Yeah I told him on AIM but I dunno if he saw it.

 

what year/color/miles?

EDIT: nvrmnd... i just sent him a PM via NOSR

 

my car bores me in the speed department... but i still get out of it sometimes and while i'm walking up to my front door i turn around and stare at it for a good 5 seconds and think to myself.. "god i love my car". poor car is getting the backburner now. It's funny when the turbo Z is your slow vehicle and your daily driver.

 

^^350 rwhp gets old pretty quick. My 400 whp setup got old. You know what they say, you always want more and more.

 

The M3 is an amazing car but I personally think that getting an M3 as a DD is a big mistake. You don't DD your 30k+ car as it is, why DD a 45k+ car? I know you're not paying new price I'm just saying, I'd rather spend a little money for an econo car (I want to buy a Yaris hatch as a DD) so I don't put anymore miles on my Z. I love my Z and I always find that I take the longer way home but there are times where I just don't want to take the Z because I know it's not going to be safe or I don't want to put the extra mileage from a trip (like out of state trips, unless it's a meet).

All in all I understand your reasoning for wanting to get rid of the car for a more practicle one but I can't say the M3 would be the best choice. I'd say look at something else like possibly an EVO or STI?

Btw, the black one made me hard too :-)

 

Didn't realize you had 90k on that thing. I'd stay N/A on that car unless you built it.

 

m3 is a nice medium for still having a sports car, toting the kids around but still enjoying what you drive. If you could make the situation favor you Will I think it would be a good choice for you.

 

yea when i go fi i will have to build to motor i just broke 62000 miles on my z and i really need to sell me jeep i wanna buy a house.

 

My Z is an 05 with 23k miles. I think the mileage is good on it, and now that the motor is about to be pulled, and I bought the bike, it won't be going up for a while. I plan on keeping the Z though now and making it a fast daily driver.

 

Put the Jeep on autotrader Ryan.

 

I agree with you on every you said. I would love to drive my car everyday but I don't due to where I work. I don't really want to get sand, mud, and rocks thrown on it all day. Not to mention there is a sandblasting and paint company right accross the waterway. I say go for it. I like the black beemer but it will be a bish to detail and keep the swirls out.

 

EVO and STI's are nice.. but not for me.. i'm lookin at 330i's, M3's, IS250/350's.. stuff along that line.. something "sporty" with a good bit of creature features.. it needs to be quiet.. i wanna hear my farts when they roll out.. cause at this age i can't really tell anymore when they slip.. so an audible warning is always nice..

yeah Greg, i know.. thats a terrible excuse.. but it works for me

 

Going MIA for a little bit guys.

 

where u goin?
