Lost M3, must say goodbye, this forum has been great!

it was a very sad day... had to turn in my M3 (very early lol).. due to tough times

anyways, it was a great 40k miles of pure fun and excitement.

This forum has been the best and most informative that I have been a part of.

I will truly miss coming here and certainly miss driving the M!!

I appreciate all of the answers and help from all of you.

please cherish your time in the M and do not take for granted. Yes, it's only a car, however it will be tough not hearing the sound of 8,400 RPMs to start the day!!!

Regards,

You can still visit even though you are M3less. Maybe you can become an M5ver.

MK, we're neighbors

I was going to have an accident whereby it would've gone into the canal on Griffin lol..

but of course I would never do anything like that so...... it went back to dealer via voluntary repo....

thanks. I will be back on top and will probably own an M again one day...

when I went to dealer and they offered me 35k for it while owing 62, didn't have much of a choice left. unfortunatly I'm having to file ch13 and the car (debt) will be included. my turn for a personal "bail out", it's actually the smart financial decision based on some other factors involved.

I don't feel bad at all either. lenders in this country put me (and a lot of us) into this situation and they will now bail me out. My wife and I are both in R.E. and had 2 slow years that really hurt. Some of the things that I love, I am having to give up...for now.

Tough times, man. You'll be back on your feet in no time.

8400RPM to start your day? What about warm up? I never crack 3,000 on my way to work!

BTW - how is losing 27k better than continuing payments (or waiting for involuntary repo) on the car? Is that one of those weird bankruptcy stipulations?

Very sad to hear, I may have to do the same soon as well and I'm really stressing out about it.

just because you dont have the car doesnt mean you cant stay on the forum. i do feel your pain about hard times. im in the military and it still seems hard to keep up with the cost to live.

are you fucking kidding me?

I'm sorry you're losing your car and are taking a hit on your credit, but the above line is the biggest crock of bullshit I've yet to see on this forum.

Kind of have to agree. I have worked commision sales before and it was all about planning for the future, whether it was feast or famine.

Having nothing tied to credit, perhaps aside from a reasonable mortgage, is also a safe bet. At least my tax dollars can go to help out all the "victims" of bad credit out there.

^ +3 This entitlement mentality kills me. You deserve to get bailed out? Don't get me started. yeah, it's all the lenders fault, not the people who "bought" a house with 0-10% down or re-fried with the interest only loans... Please!
