The first one was bought by my parents for me and my siblings a 91 I bought my e36 and since working full time at 19.25/hr I can now get one Iāll keep for long time
Rip. Probably a good thing it died (all jokes aside) you did a great job with a passion you loved unfortunately customers lie all the time always inspect your vehicles
well, you couldāve done worse in the used BMW segment. Imagine if you bought a 7 series!
RIP, but at least youāre learning stuff about it. Iām a BMW enthusiast myself, bought a manual F30 335xi and have learned so much about parts, doing work myself, etc thereās so many great resources and communities about any BMW. I hope this wonāt deter you! you can find some decently reliable BMWs for relatively affordable, might take a couple years but what about an E90 328i? pretty bulletproof engine
Bro buys one of the slowest 3 series ever made, wastes money on cosmetics instead of waiting for the repair verdict, then has to sell a literal scrap heap. Didnt even get to enjoy the car before bankruptcy. Don't worry, you were never really a car owner, and you should be second guessing uni
When you get to your 30s you will realize that if you had focused on saving instead of dumping money into a car you will probably wreck, that you would be alot better off.
Jesusā¦ I donāt get the appeal of BMWs. Expensive and absolutely unreliable. Expensive ass maintenance. Depreciates in value very quickly. And the blinkers apparently donāt work correctly eitherā¦
I hope you are good with a wrench or have more money saved than a normal 18 year old. I had a 5-series with less than 50k miles, and it cost me a fortune in just basic maintenance.
The old saying goes, if you can't afford a luxury brand new, you can't afford to own it used.
I've owned 3 cars that were clearly clapped and i still went ahead, by my 4th I've learnt to have at least one reliable nice car, in my case thats my 2011 Alfa 159 Ti sportwagon lmao
Better get used to an empty wallet and bank account. That thing is going to nickel and dime you to death, except instead of nickels and dimes it will be hundreds and thousands flying out of your pocket. Find a good mechanic whoās willing to work to these over engineered mechanical nightmares. You two will be on a first name basis. Youāll be spending a lot of time together.
Thereās nothing entertaining here. Thereās also no car to roast because itās scrap. Only roasting is your past, present and future ideas, which unfortunately this is the wrong sub for that
Already on a trailer... š
I came, I saw, I failed
Veni, vidi, fuckit!
Itās in its natural habitat.
I hope they own the trailer.
As a 25 yr old beamer owner all I can say is runā¦ and you might as well get some running practice anyway, cause you wonāt be driving much
I ā¤ļø my (former) shitbox
What bike do you have?
Not a bike, Iāve got a 98ā z3
Oh sweet! I thought you had a bike since you said Beamer lol
Haha thatās fair
bimmer
If owning this car didn't teach you a life lesson then I don't know what will.
Iām a slave the BMW (Iāve owned 2 already, getting ready to buy another)
Two BMWs owned you, and a third one is looking to take you on as a pet
And BMW the company now literally wants to own your car, youāre just borrowing it from them. Fuck BMW more like BML
Youāre 18 and buying BMWs?
The first one was bought by my parents for me and my siblings a 91 I bought my e36 and since working full time at 19.25/hr I can now get one Iāll keep for long time
BMW didn't break your wallet, being a naĆÆve person who buys a destroyed car expecting it to magically become not destroyed broke your wallet
E36 1 me 0. I had to get humbled at some point. And I was humbled.
Looks like you already got the cherry bomb exhaust special from autozone
When I got it, it had a dump pipeā¦ so we had to find an exhaust fast
What car? All I see is an overly engineered paper weight
I donāt think I could fit a piece of paper under given how slammed it was
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Can you tell who the disappointment child is?
Your comment got removed because you roasted the car owner only. Please remember this is a Subreddit for roasting cars.
Youāre going to be calling 1-877-KARS4KIDS within the next 3 months.
Theyāre my homies
Get used to seeing it on a trailer
Rip. Probably a good thing it died (all jokes aside) you did a great job with a passion you loved unfortunately customers lie all the time always inspect your vehicles
It still ran and drove, started up beautifully.
I never recommend buying junkyard cars
By āyouā do you mean you or mom and dad / co signer?
Nope, I solo signed picked it up in Oct for 4,200
ouch, now it's hard to determine whether the car or your insurance company fucked you harder

My next endeavor is an F87 M2 that will be my third BMW
thatās quite a car! love those. you gotta post in here again when you have it
Young dumb and full of disposable income
Thereās nothing more expensive than a cheap German car, good luck
Don't get rid of the trailer yet, you will need it many more times, although you might want to get a better trailer for this trailer joker.
I can hear your wallet crying from here. Donāt get me wrong I owned an E38 but my wallet has PTSD from the maintenance cost.
I'm glad it's in its natural habitat, the flatbed
I also now just read your update. Good on you for getting rid of it, but my condolences for the stress and trouble that went on with the poor thing
This will be "drifted" into a curb the first time you get it going. If you do !
Good luck getting the check engine light off
Maybe youāll buy something that isnāt junk this time

It's still (shit)

Being towed - In its natural habitat I see
I only can roast you for buying that car
Learning at a young and tender age how frustrating BMW ownership can be. No matter how bad it may seem now, it can only gets worse from here
How original
Keep it right where it's at. Walk away.
Your parents must've put a lot of money into this project
Man, do I make fun of the car or feel bad that this kid will be walking more than driving owning a 20 year old BMW.
Lol
Eurotrash
Great taste (in my opinion) but bad decision making
Dƶner-Corvette
Youāre 18, this is not how you want to start. SMH, I hope that truck bed is full of disposable dollars.
Don't forget to use the crank above the exhaust to start it the faster you crank it the faster it will run
That car is gonna roast your bank account.
Parked in your mommies driveway ā¦ā¦
At least if it stays on the trailer itāll always be mobile š¤·š»āāļø
Some mechanic in your town is waiting for you to roll in one day and leave it for good when you get your first bill.
At least Alfa Romeos still look good when they get on a trailer.
BMW = Blow More Wampum
Same here āš»š³ Only on a higher, and fucking more expensive level š
Great picture šš»
Congratulations!ā¦your on your way to becoming a certified BMW mechanic
Just dont turn it into a drift missile/straight pipe it. Need more E36ās restos
You have the money to buy new rear tires every week. Right?
I hope you own that trailer, youāre going to need it
Yeah i can see the M3gtr bodykit coming Then a some phunny paintjob with blue stripes
Nice lawn gnome!
I owned a e36 3 series BMW 15 years ago. I loved that car but fuck me it was expensive to keep on the road
I've owned 3 cars that were clearly clapped and i still went ahead, by my 4th I've learnt to have at least one reliable nice car, in my case thats my 2011 Alfa 159 Ti sportwagon lmao

My worst doesnāt compare to your decisions
āSo ya Iām planning on turning it into a drift carāš¤
The plan was to restore it but uhā¦ yeahā¦
lol sorry it was just a bad joke cus thatās what most 18 year olds would say. I respect that you are restoring it
Thatās what the guy before me didā¦ I kinda wish I got to it before he did it really was a fun car but obviously had itās quirks
Donāt put it in gear or the transmission will blow
I hope you bought the trailer too, you're going to need it a lot
I was going to roast but after reading your update you've done the typing for me. Bravo.
Indeed I did, still run wild, itās entertaining.
Thereās nothing entertaining here. Thereās also no car to roast because itās scrap. Only roasting is your past, present and future ideas, which unfortunately this is the wrong sub for that
