pockmark Report post Posted July 24, 2009 If your not tracking it, imo it's not worth the extra money. And if money is not the issue, then why not an M6..? Honestly, it is about everything. If you are on the highway with a modded 335 at 160 and an m3 at 160, I will feel MUCH better when I see traffic ahead knowing that I have great brakes, etc. If I have to swerve to avoid something, the M3 will do that much easier. I have driven both cars stock at speed, and the M3 is worth the extra $15k-$20k IMO. M6 is cool, but its too heavy. Bill also already had a heavily modded m5, so it kind of defeats the purpose.

RayFong Report post Posted July 24, 2009 hmm, your post actually made me think of getting a BMW. With the cash for clunkers program and the rebate BMW just launched, thats a lot of free money. I go buy a cheap POS running car for $600, turn it for cash 4 clunkers money: $3,500-$4,500 and then $4,500 for buying the X5 diesel, thats pretty good. Shit load of torque and 26mpg with space for hauling the family. The new rebate only applies to the 3 series and X5 diesels.

Luxeous Report post Posted July 24, 2009 thats a possibility, why did you get rid of it? Lease was up! If you are going to buy new, check the auction prices before you go in. From what I have seen the new M3's have dropped at least 20k in only a year, may make more sense to pick up a used one. Also, the M button is addicting...

Shit load of torque and 26mpg with space for hauling the family. The new rebate only applies to the 3 series and X5 diesels. Q: Can I go to the junkyard and buy an old car and use it for a trade? A: Here is what the NHTSA says about what you need to bring to the dealer when you buy a new car: You should bring documentation establishing the identity of the person who currently owns the vehicle, preferably the title of the vehicle, and documentary proof that the vehicle “has been continuously insured consistent with the applicable State law and registered to the same owner for a period of not less than 1 year immediately prior to the trade-in.” The final rule will specify what types of documentation would be acceptable.

Its not worth messing with the warranty or free maint though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay the extra money and get the mods from Dinan. While they are wildly overpriced (due to the partnership) any dinan mods keep your warranty and maint fully intact! Im sure they will have something for that engine...assumging they already dont! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Kevin, my dealer sells Dinan, and I asked, nothing available yet. They mentioned that Dinan handles the warranty issues now....

TrentS Report post Posted July 29, 2009 dam guys now my heads spinning. maybe ill just wait and get the X6M But don't you already have a Cayenne? Or is the BMW replacing that? Just wondering why you'd want 2 SUV's. But why go new, why not retro? You and snowpoke would look good cruising in THIS! :lol2: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
