Why not look at a 3 series? Possibly an e36 M3

e36's dont give me a hardon like the e46's do.

Nothing like having to replace clutch plates after you get it...

You never know with a manual on how the person before you drove it. Especially a car that is supposed to be a fast car.

If you can afford it, go for it. 80 dollar oil changes FTL though.

Plus they start to fail at 50,000 to 80,000 miles on higher power American cars like the one you are looking at....

Its worth it to me. Nothings better than taking some twistys in the middle of no where on a nice summer day with the windows down and a stick shift to swap cogs with.

Umm... I like German cars just fine, except that everything for them costs an arm and a leg... parts, scheduled maintenance, labor... not quite ideal for your average kid. And since it's high mileage, there's a good chance Cesar will have to dump some serious money into that thing if he does get it. I mean, if the wheels are curbed and the bumper is cracked, chances are the person who had it drove it like he was in F&F... and now is about the time that car will start falling apart.

For a ***** Am, parts are cheap and abundant, labor will be cheaper, maintenance will be cheaper. Unless the past 2 drivers were complete idiots (which I doubt because they were 40+ and this was their weekend car) the ****** should be just fine past 100k miles. I could see it needing replacement if it was owned by a kid who raced it all the time...
