M3 Gurus

Is this car a decent deal? Or should I go for a newer year model?

I'm not a guru but I was looking at M3's before I bought my current car. In 03 I believe they stopped having problems with the engine, I would not buy an E46 M3 made before 03 without a warranty. You have to ask yourself if something goes wrong can you afford to replace the engine or the transmission without a warranty.

Good point. What do you have now, now that you sold tha G?

I bought an 04 STi, big change I know

Miss tha G?

[tony]

Not really, it was more of a headache than anything. I really thought the STi would feel slow but its actually a lot more fun than my G was, granted its not as fast all around I really enjoy it and its the best car for my situation. So you're replacing the CL?

Yeah. Still trying to figure out a couple things before I do.

I'll take the cl off your hands for about $10 :).
