Conclusion is:
Porsche prices for <2006 BMWs = good deal
Pontiac sunfire prices for >2006 BMWs = too expensive

At least the Sunfire won't have something break, and break something else that's completely unrelated.

On a BMW, you put in bad gas and your speakers could stop working. Or your headlight bulb burns out and you go into limp mode. The fucking DMEs I swear to god.

It's exciting in a perverse, extremely masochistic way.

It’s like dating a Latina girl, love you with a passion you can’t even imagine one day, stab you in the eye and kidnap your dog the next day.

Then, when it’s finally over (one way or another), you swear you’ll never ever do that again, but you catch yourself freshening up on your Spanish 2 days later hahaha

This is seriously making me want to buy a turbo 3 series. Haha. And I’m being serious. So cheap.

Do an N54 valve cover gasket yourself and you may feel different. Plastic valve cover has to be replaced at 160kms. Because BMW.

My friend and I did a heater core in a Z4.

I'd rather go to guantanamo bay

Waterboarding at Guantanamo Bay sounds fantastic if you don't know what either of those things are.

bcrdukes 11-26-2020 07:50 AM

As per Google:

People also ask
Is waterboarding a sport?
While it may sound like a new sport, it's really a controversial interrogation technique considered by many to be illegal. ...

VHAT? :suspicious:

Great find, really low mileage, and good price! And manual so you avoid the auto tranny issue in those years. Great winter car as it is AWD.

holy crap that is a Craigslist great buy!

I know, finally ... a real CL GOOD buy! Instead of shitty BMW's postings ad nauseum.

tofu1413 11-26-2020 03:26 PM

whoa. manual R. :sweetjesus:

BIC_BAWS 11-26-2020 03:28 PM

I don't only look for BMWs hahah. I would have scooped it up and not posted it here if I wasn't so worried about the 4C suspension, awd system, smt about an angle thingy.

Some akin it to it being as bad or worse as a N54 35i.

whitev70r 11-26-2020 03:40 PM

If the angle gear goes, you can just remove driveshaft and bevel gear and drive it as a 300hp FWD beast.

If 4C goes you can replace with Bilstein or Koni but there would be a light on dash ...that's all.

Honestly the car would probably be written off before any of those things fail.

I feel like there’s a high chance that Volvo is a fake ad? Like 1/3 the price of other high mileage ones posted

vitaminG 11-26-2020 09:25 PM

^ price does seem ridiculously low, if you look in the third pic there's a bc plate in the background

Spectre_Cdn 11-26-2020 09:32 PM

I’ve seen the GS450h in the background at that house on Springfield, so it’s legit.

68style 11-26-2020 10:04 PM

I lived in the townhouse complex just around the corner until I was 7 years old haha

whitev70r 11-27-2020 08:51 AM

^^ ... someone go and git that S60R!
