Hey guys,
I'm looking to buy my first car and I have a budget of about 12K. I've looking at different BMW's since June and I cannot decide what to buy. I found a 2004 330xi with 123K on it for around 8K and a 2002 with only 65K for 12,500. I really cannot decide if I want something newer and cheaper and use it as a beater till I get something better or if I should spend more and get the one with less milage.
If you were buying your first car which one would you buy? Is either going to be a money pit where I'll just be fixing it constantly or are these pretty reliable cars? Thanks for your help!
