You paid too much, I paid ~$50 for mine, they gave me the stumpy key, I bitched and they ordered another key which ended up being the wrong one again, but not the stumpy (thats the wallet key btw). Neither worked in any locks on my car so I am going to wait and order a few more things so that I have one key to work on everythingSimon

The keys are totally different on mine, I haven't been able to find the whole history on my car, but I think it was a parted out shell in Oregon (circa early 2000s) before someone put it back together with the M20 in it, 2 previous owners before me.Simon

Another issue is them cutting your new key based on the old worn key. No bueno."I'd probably take the E30 M3 in this case just because I love that little car, and how tanky that inline 6 is." - thecj
