Awesome car...I had a 97 M3 for a few years--I loved it. Once I'm not driving 30k miles a year I will defintely be getting an E46 M3.

M3 and the Scooby.

Whew! I missed this thread when it came out (I realize it's almost a month old), so when I saw the thread title and the OP I was afraid you had sold the GF8.

Very nice! :thumbsup:

Beautiful car, beautiful color! I'm partial to Laguna Seca Blue, but that yellow is very nice. Be sure to keep it in shape. What are your plans for the Scooby--gonna sell it or keep it?

edit: dude I forgot you're in the UK. What kind of gas guzzler/luxury/VAT/London commuter taxes are you gonna have to pay on that thing???

No Gas guzzler tax, well, there is insane fuel tax so that counts. However, I have a fuel card from my company, so that is a non-issue. I live 5 minutes from work, walking, so no Congestion charge/commuter tax. No Luxury tax here either, so I'm golden! (so is the car, sorta!)

To all asking the price. It's not worth starting that little firebox! The £>$ conversion will make it appear more expensive than it really is to me. Suffice to say it's the most I have ever paid for a car, ever. Ever. 😛

Quit with the foreplay and tell us how much you paid.

~£24,000, so ~$42,000


Dear Lord! Think of all the other NEW cars you could have purchased for that price. I hope you take trips out of London once in a while. I doubt driving in London is very fun.

£24k doesn't get you a lot. Elementary economics FTW?

Since you are asking I'm going to say no.
