I wouldn't. Especially if you're worried about money. Older bmw's are hell on the wallet.

If you could pull another 1-2k from somewhere you would have a lot more options.

For 2500 and something to tide me over I'd get a ~95 3.8 Camaro. Reliable and doesn't look bad. But it's all preference.

Yeah, I said 6 because they're dirt cheap. I doubt you'd get an ls1 for 2500. Maybe an lt1 but an opti job alone is ~700 dollars if you do the work yourself.

at 2500 nowadays the best car is the one that runs/cheap to repair/gets you to point a from point b.

Get a civic put no money into it, save more money, resell civic for exactly or more than you got it for, buy something nicer?
