Haha that's a $7500 car

I'm still surprised these days the market hasn't collapsed for the x35 cars, considering how big of a can of worms they turned out to be. Turbo BMW cars are like instant no for me.

I have a near endless appetite for making bad decisions on aging German cars and even I won't go near anything with the N54 engine.

Just no.

Lots of kids who see the power and badge and don't do their research.

I was pretty involved with modding my MS3 back in the day and were on those forums a lot. As the cars dropped in price to around $10k and then under, more and more kids started picking it up because it's cheap power, but the maintenance on those things compared to a regular Mazda3 is pretty intense. It's not a HUGE amount of money in the grand scheme of things, but an extra 2q of oil, extra fuel, tires, etc all adds up.

The N54 BMW are getting to that level where ignorant kids see it and want it because omg it's 300hp.

BIC_BAWS 05-18-2024 01:08 AM

OTOH, N55 is sick tho. I'm quite liking the 535i that I have regular access to.

Are you even a true enthusiast? :troll:

Guy looking to sell a quarter share of his GT4. Not sure where this fits here but it seems like nothing but trouble. I'm assuming he's got financial trouble

twitchyzero 05-23-2024 06:06 PM

there's other ads in victoria also about a similiar deal but with another vehicle

as summer toys become harder to find in the 10-25k range, i think this arrangement will become more popular

dark0821 05-23-2024 09:40 PM

smells super scammy to me looooooool

red kryptonite 05-23-2024 10:05 PM

I've discussed this with friends before, but I would only do it with some one I know and trust and not just some rando off craigslist

And this is true, toys are so expensive now, and really the average joe's disposable income is proportionately much smaller than before.

Why do I feel like someone has or is working on an app so people can buy a fractional share of a car.

JDMDreams 05-24-2024 12:14 AM

I wonder how bad the M3 is, just put some wheels on it and polish it up

underscore 05-24-2024 09:04 AM

Good luck ever selling that 1/4 of a car. Buying a vehicle with two people on the title is enough of a pain in the ass when they're divorced, I can't imagine what a mess this would be.

The problem is the friends you talk to are in a different league loooool, I was talking pretty serious with a friend about the Manual R8... and he was also very serious and told me = if we’re gonna co-own something, it should be something more exotic

I was like damn.. yeeeaaaaaaa, let me try to save up for another decade, and probably by then dinosaur powered NA high strung manual cars will probably be even moooooooooorrrrrreeeeeeee unaffordable lolol.

Well we were talking about E46M and some other random shit that's under 30k. Nothing exotic like an R8. I don't have 45k to dump into a toy.
