Which one to sell?

Mike_OGm2 · 01-21-2015, 03:16 AM

Should I sell my 2010 135i or my 2010 M3? Both have 35K miles. I can sell the 135i to pay off the M3 and make a little money left over or sell the M3 to make alot of money for a down payment on a house. I have a buyer for the 135i now. Reason for sell is a 2015 X5 is on the way. Let me know. Thanks.

Update: Sold the 135i. Thanks for the input guys!!!

I love my 135i to pieces, but I say sell yours and pay off that M3. ///M cars are special and that's the last naturally aspirated V8. A classic!

Robmaster · 01-21-2015, 03:39 AM

sell both and buy a 1er M! best of both worlds! ;-)

if that's not an option, i would sell the 135i.

e36addict · 01-21-2015, 07:31 AM

I say M3. Never been a fan of the E9X M3 since it's under-powered. Wonderfully balanced and solid car, and beautiful sounding car if it's set up right, but the 1er has more potential IMO.

ShocknAwe · 01-21-2015, 07:32 AM

Second the sell both and buy a 1M. Or sell the M3 and convert the 1er since you know it's healthy and well taken care of.

We're biased here though.

Which one is more fun to drive?

Keep that one

MightyMouseTech · 01-21-2015, 08:30 AM

I could of had either. I bought a 135. My vote is to sell the M3.

inFamousKicks · 01-21-2015, 03:35 PM

Well, getting a new X5/considering a house tells me you have a family? If so, my vote would be for the house.

But I'd probably enjoy an e90 more. Just my opinion.

BrokenVert · 01-21-2015, 03:43 PM

Which car do you like best?

aloksatoor · 01-21-2015, 04:00 PM

Since your keeping/buying the suv, ditch the 4 door. One fun car one for family.

Sell the one and buy an m2 in 11 months.

Thanks for the input guys!

ilikebmxbikes · 01-22-2015, 01:23 AM

2010 was a good year for you

. both awesome cars and a hard decision.

With an X5 on the way I do like the previous suggestion of sell both and get a 1m.

mike@x-ph.com · 01-22-2015, 10:22 AM

if that is not an option just sell the M3

houtan · 01-22-2015, 01:23 PM

sell the m3, buy a house.

Agreed. Both cars are getting on in age anyway, if they were both brand new cars I would probably say sell the cheaper one. May as well put more into the house so you can buy something newer sooner.

adobeee · 01-22-2015, 02:34 PM

Sell M3 and put a down payment on a house. Cars are in most cases depreciating assets and do you no financial good in the long run unless you have a collector car like a 1M or Mercedes Gullwing SL.

Mike_OGm2 · 01-25-2015, 11:42 AM

Going to sell the 135i guys. Unless the deal doesn't get done. Thanks for the input guys.

Esteban · 01-25-2015, 01:09 PM

Whatever your reasons are, that's a good choice.

SchismX · 01-26-2015, 10:31 PM

And I am the lucky buyer!
