Apparently none of the m3's...

F80NJM3 · 12-21-2011, 01:57 PM

It appears that none of the m3\'s for sale have been \"mistreated\"..never seen rain, never eaten in, never seen snow, never been on an accident.

Fishy??? Who knows..

EVERY M3 has been revved high at some point, even if only a few times....

...and MOST M3's have seen rain (.intentionally or not). I would even wager that MOST M3's have been eaten in as well. It's really easy to tell when/if someone regularly eats food in their car.

I have had my M3 for 6 months and 3800 miles. It has never nor will ever be driven in snow. It has never intentionally been driven in rain, and has been in rain probably about 5-7 times at most. I do not eat in my car. I have had my kids eat in the car, but not any kind of food that can't easily be vacuumed. (chips okay, candy bar not okay) I do not let anyone drink anything other than water. The car is garaged. I do drive the car hard every chance I get.

BTW...it won't be on sale for a long time to come

luis_m3 · 12-21-2011, 03:11 PM

Mine has been rained on many times. No snow, food, or drinks besides water though.

I drive the shit out of my car rain/snow/sunny day I don't discriminate. What's the point in paying so much monthly if I'm not going to drive it

808@702 · 12-21-2011, 03:18 PM

Ive never seen a car "on" an accident.

It is a car folks, not a museum piece. Drive it, enjoy it. If you have sex in it, don't tell us about it.

You are not going to get more for at in the end because it was never rained on, no birds pooped on it or it was never taken to the redline. In fact you are not doing yourself any favours by babying it. It is meant to be driven, the engine is meant to go to 8300 RPM.

Wash it, wax it and clean the inside - that too is part of the joy of ownership.

Nobody eats in mine, can only drink if it's got a cap, and It's pretty spotless inside. That being said I drive the shit out of it, to not would be a crime

These cars are not exotics nor track day specials and were made with being a DD in mind. Most cars these days are made to be DD. I drive mine and enjoy it as much as possible.

+1

If you don't like the descriptions or don't trust it, buy new. Forum members are really careful about their M3s. There's a thread about OCD.

Super duper ditto. I have 2400 miles in 6 months and mine has been in the rain twice quite by accident. Everything else is exactly the same.

no, but I might want to hang out with the seller

AddictedToBavarian · 12-21-2011, 05:59 PM

Never seen rain? Wow.. I'm anal with my car, I can imagine M3 owners, but rain? Jesus, it's not a '37 Bugatti 57S. However, if I had a garage and could avoid it I see your point.

:w ord:

Couldn't have said it better, f*ck the rain I'll drive in snow/rain/tornado/hurricane/ hail.

armyav8tor · 12-21-2011, 06:12 PM

I also avoid intentionally driving the M3 in the rain and never in snow (not so much the snow but the salt associated with it).

One of the rare exceptions:

But as far as driving it, this car have been driven very hard since the day it left the assembly line. The car is coming up on 20k miles now and since the 15k service, I have not had to add any oil. A testament to the "hard break in" method.
