A fuel pump costs 20 grand, you have to replace the clutch every 3 years, that's 20k. Brakes are 8k. Tires are yearly changed @ $500 a tire. And that's only if you drive it about 3k miles a year. My commute is stop and go traffic, which puts alot of strain on the clutch.
Believe me, I research all my options before I buy. :p M3's rolling good with 100,000 miles of free maitenence. & I'm 26.
If you get the newest model, you should get the hatch. It looks great. If not, an EVO X SE or MR. It's a nice ride without a huge spoiler on the back. Saw one yesterday, bright blue. We followed each other for a good 20 miles.
There's nothing like driving a car you tuned up. Wish you luck in those plans.
I'm stuck in the era of Evo's and STi's. Both are fukn amazing cars, but the STi wins me over. I've seen like three pretty MR's and a ton of WRX's. but not the STi's. The one thing that kills me is that every 16 year old has a WRX with an overly obnoxious exhaust; not to mention, mommy and daddy probably bought them the car. I actually like the "huge spoiler" on the STi's for some reason.
