I'm tired boss

Just stop being so poor.

Or you should buy a 3k car and spend 7k on repairs. What would the difference be?

>>28458855
find me a $3k car that isn't a mobile deathtrap

>>28458843 (OP)
you can get a great car for 6k if you aren't a retard.

>>28458859
find me a with 80k miles for $6k

>>28458875
>Limiting yourself to 80k miles when you're on a budget
Anon you're a retard and should feel bad about being retarded

>>28458875
Here. Now let's hear the excuses about how you're expecting that budget to get you a 3 year old car "fully loaded" with carplay/backup cam/push to start/blind spot monitors and all the other tech normies salivate over.

>>28458886
needs to be 2010 or newer
I will get fired on the spot if my boss sees me pull up to work in that

>>28458891
it's visually near identical to the 2011 version

>>28458878
a $6k car is no longer $6k if I need to shell out $3k instantly for repairs now, is it. Cars with even up to 200k on the clock are going for over $8k
quit being a disingenuous faggot

>>28458857
I got mine for 4k but it isn't a death trap. Try looking in Florida.

>>28458896
as much as I don't give a shit, normies do and unfortunately, normies are the ones in control of wether I keep my job or not

>>28458910
how are they going to tell it's not a 2011 when it looks the same

>>28458910
>has one of those "drive a nice car or get fired" jobs
>doesn't have enough money to buy a 2010+
Get your fantasies sorted before posting

>>28458911
the whole car is a wash
I can't pull up in Paco's special
I'm autistic and retarded enough as it is, I don't need my boss wondering why I'm pulling in to work in Grandma June's hand-me-down nor do I need the added stress of fearing the engine might shit the bed at any given moment
when I was younger and living with my parents using my dads tools I could have any car I want but now that I'm a poorfag rentoid, I don't have that luxury

>>28458918
>>28458920
I've owned both of these cars in my lifetime and I don't want to go back to these ticking timebombs

>>28458917
the real secret you're too autistic to understand is every job is a "drive a nice car or get fired job"

>>28458891
Your boss checks your odometer too? I hope this is obvious bait, maybe you should ask for a raise. I got nothing but positive attention when I would pull up to work in my 40+ year old Mercedes I paid less than $2k for rather than my expensive nucar that nobody ever said a word about.
To humor it though, $15k is what you'd actually want to budget if you want an ~8 year old entry level luxury car with under 80k miles that'll "impress your coworkers" and still look new enough (3 Series/A4/C-Class/Giulia etc)
>>28458919
Sounds like you're doomed to lease like every other normgroid, then. Hyundai has some great lease deals and will approve just about anyone these days, 10 year warranty even.

>>28458922
No you haven't and neither are "ticking timebombs'

>>28458928
seems like a good deal at $5k until you remember all the weatherstripping disintegrates at 80k and the dash starts to squeak at 100. You still have fuel pump issues to worry about and nothing on the suspension + brake system is cheap
I've owned enough BMWs now for my lifetime although I was considering a newer lower mileage f30 328d but can't find a non-salvage example for anything less than $12k

>>28458926
Why the fuck does everyone drive shitty economy cuvs then?

>>28458939
f30s are garbage just get an LCI E90 already as it's the last amazing 3 Series

>>28458937
540i
>timing chain tensioners at 120k
335i
>$3500 injector job
>fuel pump
>blown turbos/wastegates
>water pump every 60-80k
okay

>>28458940
because I'm a white middle age male and by comparison, the bar is through the floor for Pablo or Tyrone or Kary. They can get away with driving shitty cars, I can't (and neither can you)

>>28458948
I have one already and I want to get rid of it; the thought of waking up one morning to press the start/stop button and my engine finally blowing fills me with dread everytime I drive it

>>28458949
>540i
Your mistake for not getting a perfect-out-of-the-box STRAIGHT 6 E39, the best sports sedan overall that there is
>335i
Injectors don't cost that much
Fuel pump.
Turbos last till like 140k miles, and wastegate rattle can be programmed out by software
>muh water pump!!!
Ok just change it, tinywrench

>>28458962
>just buy this piece of shit, bro
No

>>28458952
So it should be easy to have a nicer car than them

>>28458899
Suggesting that all cars with ≥80k miles will instantly need thousands of dollars in repairs is disingenuous.

>>28458962

>>28458963
fun um but the reality of the situation is that the E39 is the best sports sedan overall that there is, and the E92 is the last amazing 3 Series

>>28458964
Would be if the social game we play is against other people but unfortunately it's against the perception other people have of us which is why autists always lose

>>28458966
Yeah those are $2k

>>28458963
Smart.

>>28458971
sorry I didn't get the price

>>28458969
My oldest car gets the most compliments from random "normies" in the parlance of our times

>>28458974
your oldest car is also not your daily driver

>>28458972
Delusional.

>>28458973
Good fucking lord, what a pos.

>>28458965
if it's any German car fresh out of warranty, it definitely will

>>28458973
If you want to spend a grand for a BMW logo, that's your prerogative

>>28458976
Yes it is

>>28458983
ahh yes, let me just cheap out on the part most likely to grenade itself (besides the turbos) and require two whole days to change out (again)
ps don't forget the programming

>>28458986
okay

>>28458987
Again, what a pos.

>>28458987
>getting OE is cheaping out!!!
Kek the "BMW" ones are literally made by the same company in the same factory, BMW just puts its logo on those

>>28458990
Ok post your cars then

>>28458991
Fram is also the OE manufacturer for a lot of Toyotas and Hondas but the OEM brand is a fair bit different than the shitty Orange filter you buy at Walmart innit?

>>28458968
Delusional

>>28458997
Kek fram isn't the OE for goyotas what the FUCK are you talking about
And picrel is an example of what I'm talking about. The OE is HENGST, but it was marketed as an acdelco filter, but it's branded as gm OEM. Which is it?!?

>>28459000
And yet

>>28459006
do you ever shut the fuck up or do you do this in every thread

>>28458962
my 335i has 110k on the clock; its blown a chargepipe (stock tune btw), had a water pump failure, needed a new valve cover gasket, and developed extremely bad wastegate rattle all within the 30k miles I've owned it. Thank God it has Index 12s, that's literally the only good thing about this POS

>>28459009
Do I use my experience, as well as others' who have driven many more cars than anyone on this board to give great advice in every thread? You're godsDAMN right I do

>>28459006
see >>28458802

>>28459015
busrider

>>28459014
Mine has 125k and picrel is all the repairs and maintenance. I got it at 118k so I'm only going off records before that

>>28459016
God
damn

>>28459025
and that's okay with you?
I only ask because at 110k I'm ready to tap out, more shit is breaking faster than I can replace it and it's a headache
Do you daily drive your 335i or is it a second car. BMWs are fun as second cars but I would go back and KMS 25yo me for buying this POS

>>28459016
See >>28459028

>>28459021

>>28459038
no, I've only driven exclusively BMWs for the better part of a decade and a half

>>28459033
Yeah it is okay with me, it isn't my daily, and I've only put -- you know let me check how many miles are actually on it. I don't daily it, but my oldest BMW is my daily

>>28458846
When will you give him money so he’ll stop being poor instead of making condescending and unhelpful remarks?

>>28459041
Ok well I need to plug in the battery to my E92 so I can open the door since it's on jackstands waiting for me to put in a new radiator and charge pipe

>>28458906
that's not an option considering I'm on the opposite coast. I'm not about to entrust a 3k mile roadtrip to a $4k MysteryMeat MarketplaceMobile (sight unseen btw)

>>28459044
It has 123,600 miles so i've only put ~5500 miles on it in 2 years, it was being dailied before the previous owner bought a g30 530e and I know he got rid of it because he didn't want to do the 120k mile service

>>28459056
If you're on the west coast I'll sell you my backup 125k miles E39 for like $4500 lol

>>28459069
I appreciate the offer but I'm looking to get out of the BMW game. I've lowered my standards to even looking at shitconoboxes like Prius but I'll probably find myself in a nice Lexus GS or something that I'll probably shell out $15k for

I looked at corollas near me because of OP's post and this is what 10k gets you - at a dealership, anyway. Goddamn the toyota tax is real. Just get a hyundai at this point, there's no way toyota is really that much better.

>>28459077
I used to have a gs350 f-sport, the E39 is better, and the gs actually cost more to maintain lol

>>28459078
I was looking at Hyundai and Kias until people reported that they burn insane amounts of oil on even brand new engines with as low as 30k on the clock. Sonatas, Elantras, Optima's. Those engines are dogshit from what people are saying

>>28459079
Tell us how many sick mawdz you gave this one, Pepeto.

>>28459081
I had a 2017 accent and it never had any problems. I think the newer hyundais are actually fine

>>28459078
My friend had a 2011 corolla that burned its exhaust valves at 110k miles so he needed a new car. He was looking at camrys and corollas again for some reason until I steered him to a 1990 ls400. It'll outlast any fucking corolla or camry he wouls have gotten even though it had 300k miles on it when he bought it (more because the odometer is broken so we don't know the true mileage). He's already spent like $7k fixing it up though not including the purchase price of $3400

>>28459084

>>28459087
That $7k is mostly for labor. Mostly.

And there he goes again making the whole thread about himself and you know the saddest bit is it's incredibly obvious yet you knobs always take the bait without fail.

>>28459456
25% Auto Tariff went into effect regardless of the other tariffs. That's why there was a spike of people buying new and used cars in May to get the prices before the 25% jump

You do realize those lap times Porsche post aren't of the manual cars, right? Is it because no one can drive manual well enough, or is it that the PDK is faster around any track? If your IQ is above room temp level you should be able to figure this out.

I'm at this point. Fifteen years with the same car and even though I've been able to afford a new car for a while, I just never get around to it because it just works. Even if I get what I want, it does not provide a lot of additional utility.

People are amazed how it just runs, because they've seen me abuse the car relentlessly. I just do 4K-5k services and replace whatever breaks during that time.
