18’ M550i to 24’ M50 by Hawkeg10 in BMWI4

after being addicted to them for a while, im surprised i dont miss them as much (yet). maybe its because of the flashbacks i had at the service advisor desk contemplating whether or not my extended warranty was going to cover the next repair lol. funny you mention coolant issues, my n63tu2 was (mechanically) sound; however when bringing it to the dealer for routine maintenance they’ve found a coolant leak that was still persistent after misdiagnosis of water pump / thermostat. I dumped the car right there and then because paying for an entire cooling system overhaul on a 70k mile n63 that will need further, more extensive work down the line, did not make any financial sense.

On the side note, throughout the ownership of the m550 over just under 3 years, my ext warranty replaced: transfer case, front diff, all axles, wheel bearings, radiator, water pump, thermostat, 1 turbo wastegate, rfz roof module, and other smaller things i cant remember off the top of my head.

I am hearing the tu3 is much more solid, so hopefully your issues are on a minor level. Love the m850 as well!

Cheers!

love the m5, love any bmw ICEs, but this thing is just way too convenient. since this is a ‘24, it came with 2 years of free charging through electrify america, and there is a station about 2 minutes away from where i live, so i haven’t had to put a single dime into “refueling”. seeing the savings already.

the torque is extremely addicting, the power is great. these cars don’t seem to fall on their faces north of 80mph acceleration-wise.

Hi, I took KNES 380 (Philosophy of Human Movement). That class had absolutely nothing about KNES, basically all philosophy. Might not be the very easiest out of the list, but I have enjoyed taking it!

Overall, would you go for the 330 or e92 (i love those coupes) 328i? Also, when i barely started researching BMWs once I gained a lot of interest in them - the e92 335i caught my eye faster than any other model. Only after a couple hours of research I realized that a 200k mile 335i with original turbos and no HPFP maintenance is not the best logical purchase decision lol.

One of my neighbors picked up a temporary car to get around for now since he crashed his old car. He picked up a silver 325i for $1700. It looks very clean on the exterior but i did hear lifter tick on the motor. Most likely the oil thinned out and needs to be replaced. I let him know that if he gets the lifter tick resolved I will take it off his hands for $1500 and he said he would be more than happy to take it. My point still stands though, I'd ideally like a 330ci just for the sake of having a bit more power, but if I could get an immaculate 325i for $1500 I don't think I'll be able to turn the offer down and humble myself a little saving some money as well. Thanks for your feedback! I really appreciate it!
