cossiecrew · 26-06-2008, 20:02

narrowed it down to s14 or m3 lol both can be had for fairly cheap what are the bad points to look out for on s14 also theres a few different models any to avoid?

monster R32 · 26-06-2008, 20:13

s14 all the way

i work for bmw and have driven a fair few e36 m3's
and in regards to buying a e36 m3 for a good one you will need £6000+ unless you buy one that has been px'ed into a main dealer and my 25% discount........

You wanna tell that to Ren Juanjo, 20vWill, and all the others who've spent £3k-4k then sold off all the gay bits for rape.

Very hard choice, im joining you with this one.

I look at pics like this everyday and cant make my mind up either. I prefer the DAKAR YELLOW M3 i think, but..... handing over my money and buying one, well should i or should i get the 14a

good luck

I love jap cars so i would go for the s14 (the only bmw i like is the E30 anyway

)

MJG · 26-06-2008, 21:33

Go with our plans Mark

chrome trim ftw.

Thats right, all those items are an accessory that come with the M3! The main item you must buy when you purchase an M3 is this:

....................
Whatever you decide it's your choice, but since recently everybody wants something different for unknown reason, how about you get an E36 and make it like this:

e30-turbo · 27-06-2008, 01:22

well i have a e30 turbo for the road and a e28 v8 for drifting so i think u can tell what i think lol

Andy.w · 27-06-2008, 09:53

i think personally the jap cars LOOK drift and the M3's look more fast road use, i dunno maybe im wrong.

what about a merc 190 cossie

ren_juanjo · 27-06-2008, 12:28

meh, my £2500 m3 has needed very little mechanical stuff over the last years drifting. just treat it nicely and it'll treat you nice back. at the end of the day its personal choice.

Mad Cas · 27-06-2008, 13:08

Just ratchet strap your gixxers together Mark and use them as one big, screaming, wheelie-ing drift machine.

Failing that buy Wills M3, as I can vouch for it being pretty damn sweet for the money and its more of a rewarding drivers car than an S14.

cossiecrew · 27-06-2008, 19:09

minds made up as soon as the bikes are sold im on the look for an m3 coupe hopefully dakar yellow was a hard to make up my mind but the m3 won the vote in my mind still like the s14 but like to be abit different

cossiecrew · 27-06-2008, 19:15
