silverjettin · 08-23-2004, 09:59 PM

I've been a vw fan for years and am considering moving onto a bmw..
I was gonna get an older 325..but..i've come across what seems like a good deal on an m3..
here's the deal:
1997 silver m3 with almost 300k miles on it..5 spd..original owner says motor and tranny are running 100% and were always maintained..all highway miles..
price: 6500
silver body.. clean interior
any suggestions?

the way I see it..bmw's have a rep for running forever..but 300k is alot of miles

any suggestions ?
anybody driving really high mile m3's out there?
thanks

Anything that has 300,000 miles is worn. Not just the engine but many other parts also. I would pass.

either look for another or KILL HIM ON THE PRICE
jus ask for some incredily low amount cuz the milage is so high
like that other guy said ^ up there
milage is rellie important.. basscailly its like the age of the car so..yea good luck

Seriously, offer him like 3k cuz no one is gonna buy that with that kinda mileage he'd be lucky to get anything for it!
