Need advice on a 08 M3 purchase

LOL MPG · 07-28-2012, 01:37 AM

Im new to the BMW world, I'm currently looking to buy a 08 M3 used with under 50k and besides the obvious I know BMWs aren't cheap to maintain I currently drive a Mach 1 V8 so gas is not one of my future problems. I just want a heads up on regular maitaince costs assuming the car is clean once I buy it, so regular stuff like OIL CHANGES, TIRES, TUNE UPS ETC any input is appreciated on how much money is spent on them regularly before I make a final decision on buying, I looked for threads on tips already so if anyone can point me in the right direction or post info here is really appreciated. THANKS

Click here for DIY pricing, be sure to thank mendez for taking the time to compile the spreadsheet! The pricing listed is courtesy of BMW of Silver Spring, formally known as Tischer BMW. I have dealt with Evan on numerous occasions, he is simply the best when it comes to OEM parts and customer service

If you would like further information regarding maintenance schedules, post/PM your e-mail address and I will send you a copy of Mike Miller's Lifetime Maintenance Schedule (version 09.11).
