why shouldnt i buy an m3

As i grew up the one car i always said i would own was an m3. hard top, estoril blue with charcoal alipina 5 spokes

now there getting a little more affoardable. i could probably pick one up with 50k on the clock for about 12k if i looked hard enough.

can you give me 'proper' reasons why i shouldn't sell my car and get one. or reasons i should

rear wheel drive, lots of power....hard top

 

Get one, they're fab

 

its just im thinking about getting an engine to go in mine, but im also thinking save yourself the hassle and just buy a fat motor?

 

If you can afford to run an M3 then i think you have already suggested reasons enough to go and get one

 

get a proper m3

 

engine won't fit, the gearbox on them is far too long, and all the mounts are wrong, i considered this with my previous mk2, but it was never going to be possible.

Just buy the whole car, they look nice, have a great amount of power and it will enable you to keep the golf off the road, and be a true show car.

 

The only reason I can think of is that you really want an E30 M3:



*drool*

E36 ones aren't my cup of tea... No competition heritage y'see

 

get one i love em, but look at the insurance and servicing/ parts prices first

when do they need a new timing chain tensioner etc?

 

If you've got the money to burn then why not. I would

 

Do it (And sell me your car)

If you don't want to sell me your car - Don't do it! Keep the Golf

 

not to mention the Vanos unit-quite a costly repair i believe...But still, go get one

 

ye but arnt they alot faster, much nicer to drive, cheaper to run and easier to live with.

 

either get a real E36 Alpina or get an E30 M3. E36 M3 are becoming soooooooo common now.

 

E30 M3 is the only real m3 imo

 

get you I'd love an M3 but can't afford one,

Recardo have you robbed a bank?

 

good thinking

is it me, or is the front wheel a lot bigger than the back one?

 

Is it just me that doesn't like BMWs? I think it must be the attitudes of the drivers that I've encountered that puts me off.

Sure they are good cars, but I could see myself turning into a BMW driver, and tbh, I hate to generalise but I've had nowt but trouble with them

 

Get one and you'll automatically be classed as a wanker by every other motorist!!

Seriously though, if you can afford it then why not?
