GET THE COUPE! holy shit, I love the body on the coupe!!! that charcoal color will be very easy to maintain vs black. I have a 2014 black vehicle and you will see every tiny scratch / swirl / rock chip on it. If you are a perfectionist, it will drive you crazy maintaining it. The bmw jet black paint is known to be soft, so beware if the previous owner didn't give a shit about it. Soft paints will scratch to anything, even when drying it with a microfiber! The charcoal looks nice and will probably last 3-4 weeks before a carwash is required.

Read this post of someone dealing with BMW's infamously soft jet black paint. I know all about this stuff because I helped a buddy pick out his 328i (reason why I suggested the 328i in my first post). We went through at least 6 different 328i's and made a conclusion that the safest colors for a used bmw are space grey, silver, charcoal and alpine white.

It says it was from a bumper accident, if you get their vin cant you have proof if it truly was or not? If thats the only reason why its a rebuilt then their isnt any sense not to buy it with only 60000 miles, thats a really good car.

Is it also to get the Manuals over the Automatics? Ive heard good things about the Manuals with the M3 SMG Transmission, never heard anything about the stock one on the BMW.

Haven't heard much about automatics, fill me in?

I've only dealt with manual transmission and those things are fairly solid. If you are looking to experience the best performance please get the RWD + manual transmission. You will not regret it my friend!

Try and ask him to lower price a little first. If not, you are looking around 13k taxes in. Put that 2k aside for maintenance, oil changes and any minor parts that need to be swapped. If I were you, bring that thing to a bmw dealership and get them to do a 55 point inspection. It will cost between 60-150$ depending on location, but it will save your ass in the long run. Ask the owner to meet you 50/50 for anything that needs to be swapped and VOILA ! new bmer that will get u laid


^ do this for the stick rwd coupe. If this passes the inspection, I would suggest you grab that shit ASAP
