One of my friends at school is going to buy a car at the beginning of summer. He had to sell his Acura at the end of the summer post-graduation and now will have a parking spot at school and will also need a car this coming summer. He definitely enjoys BMWs and would enjoy one, especially the feel and rwd. He is not really interested in tracking, so just general practicality and comfort and daily driving... but fun to drive is a plus of course. He likes to golf, so trunk space for bags, and a sedan is a must as well for passengers. Not really looking to mod much, but he would like some torque for getting around while still having decent gas mileage.
He has been looking into an E39 528 or E36 325/328. He hopes to get something for $7k or less (preferably).
What are the pros/cons of each, and what about maintenance, etc? Experience in either or both would be helpful.
I'd really enjoy rollin' Bimmers with him, and also because I can catch rides to and from home during holidays with him. So make sure I'd be comfy!
thanks!
