Good point Gerald, selling it has been considered many times but I just don't know if I could bring myself to do it.
Also a good point about one major repair potentially breaking the bank. The answer may very well lie in Mazda3, TSX, TL, or maybe even a really well optioned 04ish Accord with a stick. I've always thought that would be kind of a unique car, blander than creamed wheat from the outside but actually pretty nice when you get in it.
Then again, EVERY used car out of warranty regardless of how reliable it's supposed to be has the potential of requiring a big repair, even Hondas. :dunno:
But it will turn into a pile of rust at 60k miles. Stereotypes right? :wink:

Helpful.
stereotypes dont come out of thin air.
If youre keeping your m3 then just buy a mazda3. no brainer.
