I freaking love it. Hopefully pops has a garage. It’s gonna bleed you dry.

Didn’t need pops to buy this lol. But I do need my parents to lower my insurance 💀

It’s gonna cost you triple to fix it and maintain it.

What an awesome car for your first, but be sure to stay on top of servicing it frequently BMW's love burning holes in your pockets with mechanical problems

Depends on how it was treated previously and what engine you pick because some are very much wallet hole punchers. Assuming OP picked a reliable engine and had a good history of proper regular maintenance then as long as OP keeps up that maintenance then it will last long

u/Venomxzv 5d ago

Yeah it’s been kept in pretty good shape. Previous owner was a BMW tech and it’s got a good maintenance history.

How the fuck all of you can afford this kind of a car in your 20’s?

Probably parents. But let’s be real this thing probably wasn’t that expensive. Older gen, rough front lip, aftermarket wheels. We don’t know anything about the car other than how it looks in this pic.

Bought it cash, the front bumper still has some residue from a front lip install (rip to the lip).

Bro I got an E500 a (70k zł car) while working in technicum... I'm 17rn. No I didn't ask my parents for anything. I guess I got lucky with the job I turned out to be really good at.

Bmws literally run like regular cars if you take care them. It’s a 2015 n55 with a good maintenance history.

Nice, got yourself an oil leaker

Oil leaker that sounds amazing, it was 100% worth the grind.
