    Unhappy What in the world do I buy??

    I have a 25k budget, and I have absolutely no idea what to buy. I've drifted everywhere from a 2012 750Li, to another 335i, to a 550i. I currently own a 2008 335i sedan and I want more power and more luxury (heated seats, heads up display, NAV, as many bells and whistles as possible) but, the cars I look at all have reliability issues. The 750il is horrible for maintenance based on what I've read and the 550i isn't far behind. My 335i is becoming boring so I don't really want to get another one but, if it's my only decent option I'll take it. My new car has to be newer than 2010 in order for me to be financed through my bank. I live in Montana so AWD would be VERY beneficial but not required. I've even looked at Audi and Mercedes but I just don't want anything other than a BMW. I've been called a snob for it, but they've treated me so well I can't stand the thought to change.

    Any thoughts or ideas?? PLEASE HELP!

    We love our ‘15 335xi MT and prices for clean ones are getting down to $25k.

    I know, another 335 but I will say that the AWD system is lighter and less intrusive than our 07 328xi which was a nose heavy pusher. It’s got heated seats ,steering wheel and all the other bells nd whistles

    I'm looking at this particular 535xi, https://www.kuniautocenter.com/used/...dbfc2fb112.htm
    Anything I should be aware of/have them send me pictures of. I can't test drive it as I live in Montana and it's located in Beaverton, Oregon. I picked up my 335i in the same area about 3 years ago.

    If your RWD 335i is becoming boring, chances are a heavier, AWD car with the same engine will be too, quite fast.

    How about one of the latest e92 M3's, with a NA V8 and a 6 speed manual gearbox?
