Say I had $25k to get a used 3-series (or 5, but I doubt that'll happen) .. what do you think I could get? Is there a good place to look at pricing on the web? eGay doesn't seem to be very reliable ..

Seems I overestimated what 25k was worth doh..

Cool! Could you tell me about your experience so far?

Can't link eGay here but i think Item 588636063 is a great deal! 1998 328 w/ M3 package for 19.5k .. seems too good to be true.

Nevermind, Here

Umm... $25K seems like a little too much to pay for any used car. Since you're obviously a rich boy, why not toss in another $4K and get yourself a new 3-series? Or if you're willing to compromise a little bit, you can get an Audi A4 for that much.

Ummm... E-B/\y is not the kind of place you get a car from. Try the classified section in the newspaper. If I might ask, do you even have a driver's license?

I think that's what he was getting at...
I have a cheaper 3 series BMW...1993 318i, small 4 banger...but all I could afford..
25 grand american?..
go for a 328i or 325i, i'd say 96-97...I think...
and any modifications that are done should be done proffesionally or they will end up costing you.
Look for rear shock mounts, on top..
I bought mine a year ago, and love it..gonna step up to a 325i hopefully..
If you wanna talk give me a shout..
I got a fair bit more info but too much to list here..
Later...

Where are you located? If you're in the Los Angeles area, you can try :http://www.californiabeemers.com/.

I've never bought anything from them. I've driven by their showroom a few times, I think it is off Santa Monica. They do have quite a few used cars. Though it does kinda bother me that they call themselves &quot;Beemers&quot; vs &quot;Bimmers&quot;. I always thought that &quot;Beemers&quot; referred to the motorcycles, whereas &quot;Bimmers&quot; referred to the cars.

Once again, yes, you can get a used M3 for $25K. My buddy is selling his 95 M3 with about 50K miles for about that much.
