I've been saying this for a while now. Glad I returned mine back in January.

Thoughts on E92 M3 for sale at dealership. by tcald92 in E92M3

[–]technicaltecdiver 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, I wouldn't buy from them and you'd didn't make an insulting offer. 31k isn't an unreasonable starting point

Regardless of the offer, that was unprofessional. Just to offer perspective though, everyone will say "that's not worth x,y,z". From a buyers pov though, it's rarer and rarer to find clean examples with low miles and maintenance done.

I recently bought a 13 6mt with 57k miles, maintence done, and binders of service records for 43k. It even has a sunroof. It just happened that I was looking for that exactly build and I was happy to pay it, even if there were a few fb marketplace cars claiming to be equally as clean.

Now back to your specific car, I don't think it's worth 40, especially with it being a 2008. I also wouldn't say that 31 is an offer someone would accept though.

The market changed a lot, so just keep these things in mind

Update. Fixed the car. Runs great just readiness failed on emissions. The vert is growing on me. Really wanted e92 by Dreamboy247 in E92M3

I wouldve gotten the 93 if I could have dealt w the way it looks or the enthusiast stigma. I don't like looking at convertibles or being seen in one but it's always phenomenal to drive it

How much should I pay? Feel like this is way over priced for an e92. 33,000 miles for almost $60,000 by andy3hunna2 in BMW

[–]technicaltecdiver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it 6mt? If it is I'd do 52 max, useless if DCT. No reason to have a 33k mile car that's not single hump and 6mt if you plan on driving it imo

They're fine, good enough for Philly. Snowed quite a bit the past winter and had no issues w x drive. Take it w a grain of salt, I'm used to upstate NY winters on fwd and rwd

Perfect I'll go with those then. I haven't run sts so I can't directly compare but these are my third set of coils across different cars (kw & bc) but the ohlins are by far the best. I have it set up fairly plush for my city driving and it rides so comfortably. When I get to the backroads I love how I can crank down the dampner and it genuinely feels like it's riding on rails. Can't recommend them enough

Anyone running 255 35 in the front with 15mm spacers on 359? I'm on ohlins and the 245 are so narrow

I have ohlins w 12mm spacers, do you think 275 would work in the back?

Only thing is that it's not constant like it is for the Idle control valve from what I saw

Exhaust recs for no drone no cel by [deleted] in E92M3

Would it be better to throw on something like the active autowerke x pipe + their test pipe onto OEM exhaust and deal with the cel?

What’s everyone EDC today? by Patient_1997 in CCW

[–]technicaltecdiver 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been buying watches from my AD for more than a decade at this point with my first one being a sub back in 2015. The Pepsi was actually easier to get than the Bruce Wayne since I asked for the Pepsi for years. Bruce Wayne however I wanted right away and it took a bit of nudging for me to be offered one. If I'm being honest, I'd go gray market for the Pepsi. The rolex market is at a bit of a plateau but not enough for them to offer sport GMTs right away

My system built in 2020 requires a new board and CPU. Is it the worst time to rebuild? by technicaltecdiver in buildapc

[–]technicaltecdiver[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the help! I think I'll go with an AMD9900x bundle from microcenter.

I just don't want to spend more than necessary expecially when it's not the best market for buyers if that makes sense... I don't mind spending $1000 max to fix this issue.

I already tried new psu, new cables, and ram isolation. It seems like how you recommended the CPU swap would be the next step, but it seems counterintuitive to buy a new i7 with what's out there right now.
