Will u change your car?

[josemh23]

I have a 2011 135 with cobb ap and berk race exhaust. I love my car and its super fun to drive. Somebody is offering me a 2009 M3 dinan stage 1... Will you jump to take the M?? What do you think? ( both have aprox 23000 miles driven)

[jsmonet]

is it loaded? if not, not a fucking chance.

if so, slight chance, but still not likely, assuming the 1 is loaded.

if neither has any real options, meh whatever

As nice as the ///M is, I wouldn't jump into a 2 years older car unless it was a really nice car. It would probably be more fun to drive, but if someone is offering their older M3 for your car, chances are there's something secretly wrong with it.

Get into an N54 135i instead

But seriously, drive the M3 and see if it puts a bigger grin on your face than your 1. If it does, get it inspected to see if everything checks out okay and THEN decide.

Or it could be the fact that it originally cost $20,000 more than a 135i... In terms of value, you would be getting a good deal. The "cheapest" used E90 M3's in my area are going for around $45k still.

Here in PR BMW 's are way overpriced due to tax. The m3 has over 10k in performance upgrades. The car is from a "car fan", he ownes a fully modified Nissan gtr and recently bought another 400hp plus car, so he wants to " lower his payments" . I'm gonna try the m3 and check if it puts a smile on my face like my 1 does...the biggest problem will be getting somebody to get my account of the car. There are people that tell me to wait for M 4 but I don't have that kind of $$ for a car.

I would go for the M3 if its in good condition and clean title.
