Poll Yes another one Question How young was your M3 at Purchase

Mr. ///M3 RD · 05-22-2012, 12:23 AM

This has not been asked as far as I know ...

Did you purchase your M3, the one you are driving now new or used?

Results should be interesting

Terraforce1 · 05-22-2012, 02:06 AM

Picked mine up new in 2010. Contemplating getting a 2013 model soon

JesusMChrist · 05-22-2012, 03:31 AM

I know I'm not the first.

But do I really care?

Stealth ///M · 05-22-2012, 05:47 AM

Used. Saved a boat load of money

My e92M3 was about 8 years old when I purchased it. Currently has about 200,000 miles on it, with 1 year left of warranty.

Dgarcia41982 · 05-22-2012, 01:24 PM

Mine has probably been farted in a thousand times before I got it.

That is super, we still have our first e28 (535is from 1987) also over 200,000 miles feels great!

I know the feeling, so did I when I purchased my first e46 M3 used. Always a smart move.

so far looks like majority doesnt want to buy cars that someone else previously beat on.

schnell325 · 05-22-2012, 05:13 PM

Brand new & custom ordered, none of this buying what was on the lot crap!

positiveions · 05-22-2012, 05:20 PM

Ok, i have to confess; I am picking up mine today!
2011 E90 M3, DCT (yes Rolf, I know what you are going to say), w/ 16k miles.
I found a great "take over lease" deal from a gentleman; a deal that I couldn't pass.
Stay tune for photos.

All I can say is congratulations, you did well.

My first one was used also and served me well from 2004 to 2010.

yoelev · 05-22-2012, 05:26 PM

something about that new car smell that turns the brain off to the depreciation hit when you turn the key.

MKE_M3 · 05-22-2012, 05:26 PM

I missed the "Poll and results not interesting" button?

Something about them Bimmer's they all do smell different (all depends on the trim and leather you pick). Let us put it this way like the sent of a woman you know what I mean

I don't mind buying a used one; as long as it has been serviced properly, and all the car looks meticulous.
In fact, my very first E36 M3 had 14k on it-if my memory serves me right. I loved every minute of it. The smile that I had driving back home that night was unexplainable.

Care to explain? what's not interesting?

dagolfpro · 05-22-2012, 05:30 PM

Leased my new as I can write off most of the lease. If not, then I would have saved and bought used 2011 for $59k.
