New DD Pickup - Semi-Hairdresser Content

Recommended Posts

I needed a car for general DD duties and something that had more than 2 seats. This fit the bill and got a hell of a deal on it.

 

2012 BMW 128i.

 

4,283 miles.

 

M-Sport Package, Heated Seats, No Sunroof, Manual Seats, 6-spd, California Emissions Motor.

 

Plan is to put a lot of miles in it, and eventually turn it into a track car.

Fawk! Nice cars... What do those run? Did the PO take the depreciation hit at least? Can't believe no deals on leftovers could be had but love it! I'd rock one in a heartbeat.

Oh the joys of living with parents.

 

Not really. Insurance and monthly car payment will be covered from employer. Regardless living with parents or not, it's no cash out of my pocket.

 

Better than a scion

 

Scion was parents car. It's going up for sale as soon as I graduate.

Thanks. I picked it up for $26k.

 

The car was a "buyback" from BMW with "electrical issues" that the PO claimed. In reality, the fuse box was replaced from a tripped airbag light. Typical market value is around $32-33k, so it was a deal and a risk I couldn't pass up.

 

Car still holds full warranty and PO purchased an extended service package that puts it to 6yrs - 100,000 miles. That is a $2k option alone. The M-Sport package is very rare to find in a manual, so that only theoretically drives up the price

 

The car brings me back from my E46 days:

Car is extremely nimble, doesn't feel bloated and the interior doesn't feel like it is caving in on you. The lack of no sunroof makes for more headroom, which is only a positive in my book. Even with the lowered M-Sport suspension and RFTs I can drive the car all day.

 

Thing looks immaculate bro!

 

The car is literally flawless, it still smells like brand new. Can't complain what-so ever. It's an awesome car to drive.

 

No way?

Seriously?

 

I HAD NO IDEA

 

LOL

 

 

 

I didn't get a 135i because they hold value too well, and no sense in getting 2 cars with +300 HP. I would lose the joy of driving the M

What- what?

 

You found a job, that you are currently employed though, that is covering all of your car expenses, while you are living at home, and still in school?

 

 

What/Where are you employed? Sounds like a lucrative gig.
