"i dont think i will buy the first year model...going for second or third!!"

Not to sound rude... but you're only like 15 or 16 years old... assumingly just acquired a license... and you are thinking about buying an M3? Uhhh what do you do to afford a 55k car? Or is it mom and dad behind the money--- don't worry I am not ashamed to admit that my father bought this car for me... but I would never ever tell anyone that I bought it--- that would just be wrong!

Wow, "borrowing" that much money from your parents: spoiled.

Getting an e90 m3 with extras for your first car practically (when you're 18): 60k.

Being filthy rich: priceless.



P.S. I agree with you electric: at least you're not going around telling people you "bought" a m3.

Let me tell you sijia, paying back 3k and 60k is not the same thing. You will not be able to pay back 60k for a very long time. Your allowance doesn't count either.

"Let me tell you sijia, paying back 3k and 60k is not the same thing. You will not be able to pay back 60k for a very long time. Your allowance doesn't count either."

Yeah I know--- at least not until you're out of college with a career. (And a decently good one (60k+ a year) at that).

"Allowance" doesn't count considering it's your parents money anyway.

holy crap, a new driver driving a new M3 the insurance on that mother is going to be unbelieveable...

18 with an M3... wow. Will that be your first stick car? Hell of a car to learn on.

I hope your mom also invests in an English tutor for you.

I was about to say, with english/grammar like that, he's never getting a job that will pay his mom back. Life goes on. Enjoy the gift.

They are the highest resolution pics I have found online.....there is a good shot of one in the August '05 Car and Driver as well (page 88).

was? wem?

Congrats Sijia! This sort of thing is normal around where I live here in Toronto as well.

I'm only 20 and I proudly drive my first 2 cars that my parents have both bought me. . . I am studying hard and working in a co-op program at a decent university here. So I think i deserve nice rides. . .and thanks to god I do, which I enjoy everyday.

But hey in Chinese (Oriental) culture even here at my uni all the oriental population drive new rides like the new 330i's (2006) the new CLK500, the G500, the X5's you name it they all have them.

There's nothing wrong with this if you are wealthy, I guess the mainstream in-land people jus have a different personality, attitude and culture then us pakistanis and chinese people. . .

Cheers
