Been thinking about purchasing a BMW 3 series for about 10,000 cash.

Probably wont do it for another year because i need to get my funds up:dame:



Is it worth it? My other alternative is copping a beater and living that life but a brotha wants to feel grown:dame:

Be grown, save your money get yourself a pre-owned Toyota Camry or Honda Accord. You will be thankful in a few years. At my job all the dudes who make good money drive regular cars and all the new jacks who don't get paid shyt all drive bmw's, Lexus , and whips like that.

I mean if you making real good money and don't mind spending it like that then cop the BMW. shyt just not worth it imo.

Buy a vehicle with ridiculous maintenance cost brehs

Save up money for a unreliable piece of Euro trash brehs

Buy a vehicle that you absolutely have to take to the stealership or to someone who really knows what they're doing brehs :mjlol:

No but seriously, cop a older Lexus or Acura(90s-early 2000s). Those are more reliable and cheaper to maintain than any newer luxury car today. Only thing you might have to throw in is a AUX.

My girls parents got a 1999 Acura TL, I love when they let her take it, got some of the most comfortable car seats I've ever sat in..plus it has a lot of power :noah:

Be forewarned. Very high service/maintenance costs. I've had a few BMWs but at the same time once my cars are out of warranty I can do just about any maintenance myself. BMWs are fun to drive but there'd are significant trade offs in terms of maintenance/durability. They love to leak oil, the coolant system will, not might, WILL suffer a catastrophic failure at some point, many critical engine components are made of plastic and will be weakened because of the high heat (the rest of the engine is aluminum). The list goes on and on.

Digging through your savings to pay $2,000 because your starter went out is not "grown."

If you have 10K cash to spend on a car and are gainfully employed, get something newer/more reliable with a small note.

I would say dont do it breh

You would be better off getting getting something more reliable and not trying to "feel grown". Grown folks are broke, make the smart decision and buy something in cash, save and move up from there

I'd hunt down a cheap lease before throwing money at an older luxury car that is surely going to need work done on it.

As a bmw owner I think it's worth it depending on the condition of the car especially used and whether or not your getting it straight from the dealership or some used auto lot. If you're not getting it from the dealership your best bet would probably be to buy from an enthusiast (private party) but either way make sure you get a pre-purchase inspection done. When taken care of these cars can be great, but with problems a nightmare and unfortunately the 328i sulev is more problematic and costly to repair than a regular 328i so that's something to consider.

Get you a 2006+ prius. Best car i have ever had, hands down.

If you want to stunt just rent something for the weekend or buy something nice and drive it sparingly. I highly recommend a daily driver that's has a hybrid engine. My favorite is toyota
