Help! First Post - Newb 330xi Questions
Hello all! I'll start off by saying that I've searched, and have not come across an answer for my question exactly...so if you've got a link to a duplicate post, just paste below and save us all.
I'm looking at a 2006 330xi with 157k on the clock, and need your guys opinions. Wont be my only car, or even necessarily my DD. I'd consider myself mechanically inclined, but I don't have an engine hoist, lift in my garage, or an unlimited bank account, so prefer to keep my wrenching to more simple jobs like oil changes and tire rotations. If/When I write this guy a check, I'll officially own the highest mileage car I've ever owned, so what am I getting myself into? TIA From the CL post: Quote:

The parts and service on these cars is not cheap and thats quite a few miles. If it was me and I was looking for something around 8500, I'd probably get something else. Maybe an older BMW with less miles. Don't get me wrong, the E90 is a solid car but those miles scare me and some things will require the dealer so fixing it will come at a cost.
Some input on 330 reliability here. http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=699019 |

Thanks! At $7,900 with a set of winter tires, I feel like I'm getting a good deal on the car.
I guess a little maintenance here and there, even at the dealership, doesn't scare me too much. I really just like the look of the car! Unless someone can talk me out of it before 6 tonight, I'll be driving this beast tomorrow. If it blows up, I'll part it out on here I guess! |
