Hi everyone. Newbie here. Very pleased to come across this forum. :hello:Just some brief introduction. I'm currently driving a Toyota Camry (XV40) but planning to buy a BMW.I have allocated a budget of around RM230-RM250K for it. A 320i/320d F30 would probably seem the best bet right.Here's my scenario/dillema. My dream car is the E63 6-series coupe. Saw it sometime few years back. Pretty much fell in love with it from the first sight (still remembered it was a white 645 :love
and it was the car that sparked my interest in BMW and cars in general. For me it's pretty much the only car I'll ever want but I never thought I could have owned it in my life until I realized that a used one would cost around the RM200K mark.However, the main concern comes up again: Maintenance and spare parts. Seeing as the car is quite aged (6-7 y/o) maintenance would probably be a serious issue when considering the purchase of the car. I wouldn't mind spending a few thousands on maintenance but if it ends up in costing me to exceed my budget then it would be really depressing. What would the maintenance be? (assuming worst case scenario)So what do you guys think should be a better choice of action? Follow my heart and get the e63 or play it safe and opt for the f30?All advice would be greatly appreciated :63:
