Id rather have a 96 with 10K miles, than a 2014 with 100k.
Or are you being facetious?

Ball out, **** on these ho's op
Gotta love #NT LogicNice sneakers and nice cars are only for men who want to impress other men.
I stopped at $2k. Services will kill you (even at independent dealerships). Tires will also kill you. I swapped tires at least 3 or 4 times during the 3.5 or so years I had it. (Granted I had aftermarket wheels and coilovers and slightly camber in the rear). You can't rotate the tires like you would with a FWD car. Oil changes are also expensive. I used to do my own oil changes (every 5k since dealerships don't do them for free unless the car tells it). The oil and filter I bought at cost was around $100. Did the oil changes myself since my friend was a BMW tech, just went to the shop around lunch time to use his lift. Dealership was charging $250. That's 10 times what you would pay for a regular Honda car.Im 25 years old senior in college in the market for a new car. I currently have a car im going to sell for 2k. Then I have income taxes and some other side money coming in January. I was thinking of buying a 2006 BMW 3 or 5 series for around 5-7k.
How are these cars? Do they last long?
I know people say the maintenance is high on them but what is the worst that could go wrong?
I also have two jobs and very low monthly rent.
(sorry for any typos) on my phone.

I bought a 335i in 2007 when it first came out. Car was around $45-50k new. Loved it, and wanted to keep it. Problems started creeping up at 70k miles. Cost me $2-3k a month for 2 months. Sold it months later for $15k since I had a lot of miles on it.
Get a dependable car now at your age. Stay out of debt. Enjoy yourself when you are established in your career.
Facts.
Do yourself a favor and pay cash for a reliable, used car (Toyota or Honda) with decent mileage for $5 or less.
I've owned 5 luxury cars over the past few years and I'd never consider owning one again. Even when they are paid off they are still money pits.

Yes. Your train of thought changes as you get older. I should be in an M3 right now, the only logical choice after the 335i. Instead, I downgraded into a new TSX (this was back in 2010). I used the $15k I got for a down, qualified for .9% APR, paid $500/month for 3 years. Car is running smooth still, getting 26 MPG. Nothing major done yet at 80k miles. Just oil changes. Still on the original tires
I don't see myself owning another luxury car until I join the 1% club. Next car will probably be a 4 banger TL in AWD. The most important lesson I learned is that I will never buy another luxury car, will always lease.
Several years ago, my friend's little brother (who was 22 years old) decided to buy an '03 7 Series since it was really cheap. I told him not to do it since those 7's are very problematic. He just wanted to stunt in a big body so he didn't listen to me. Transmission went out soon after.
BTW 3 series are really for women.
this mane.BMW's maintenance fees are high though, and break down often....not a good look if you're barely scrapping by
Cop a Lexus mane
And I would also like to know if Nissan can be trusted.
