Re: Best buy under 50k?

I too would go for the RS4, hands down.

It is a beautiful car, with it's cheeky fender flares, and is rare enough to turn heads. Has a wonderful V8, with power on demand and a throaty growl, without being obnoxious. If the idea of quattro bugs you, for a small sum, you can put in a 4:1 center differential to really give it a rear wheel bias.

For me, part of the romance of owning a car is how it looks and the C63 just doesn't do it for me. Awesome engine though!

If you already own a BMW, the RS4 would be the one to have if you are looking for a 4dr German sedan.

Re: Best buy under 50k?

I feel like owning one would make my 335 useless. I kinda want a sports Coupe so I still use my 335.

Still really leaning to the M6. It's got flare, it's got that sexy V10 roar, and it looks exotic.

Re: Best buy under 50k?

The M6 to me is a Meh car. The old ones are awesome, I'm talking first ones. They had a purpose behind them. The new ones are a status car IMO. I'd go with an rs4 as well, or maybe a 1m if you're die hard BMW and want something rare. Or you could invest all that money somehow, real estate maybe. Then maybe in a few years you could buy a lambo.

Sell BMW and buy rs4 or 1m

I like my 335 though! And I just spent a ton on it...

I also don't see many rs4's for sale.

Re: Best buy under 50k?

I feel with s4's and the rs4's that the majority of them have no been maintained and the cylinder walls are peeling due to extended oil changes.


Being in your situation. I'd drive the 335 for a couple years and gather the interest on the 50k and buy something a little nicer. Maybe take 5k and put it into the 335 and make it more reliable and fix any maintenance it might be lacking on

Oh I'm collecting interest on way more then 50k right now... 50k is what I feel comfortable sparing for a new toy.

Re: Best buy under 50k?

I figured that much. In two years though...... Buy something real nice.

Re: Best buy under 50k?

I would go Porsche as well. Great drivers car. I have been very happy with the ones that I have had. 996 models are pretty inexpensive. 996TT start at approx mid 40. Could look at 997 as well

I am not a fan of the M6. Just didn't do anything for me for (borrowed a friends for a week)

Re: Best buy under 50k?

Buy an E30 M3, great weekend car and in five years it'll probably double in value!

Re: Best buy under 50k?

C63's are awesome. M3's are disappointing unless you always driving it at 5000 RPM. RS4's are awesome and the best feeling car, but they are also a car that loves to be at 5000 RPM. Porsche turbo's are the only Porsche i'd buy, they are amazing and retarded fast. The non turbo carrera just seem so under powered relative to the turbo (997 that is).

I have driven a million of each car, and C63 is definitely the best all around time. Although it really likes to chew the rear tires up quick. Only drawback is it doesn't come in manual.

RS4 comes with a 4:1 diff stock....

Turbo an s2k

Dammit Dylan.. Hahahaha
You were always saying you liked B7 S4s... Why not a B7 RS4? They're around $40-45k I believe. That would be a hell of a car to own.
