: Hi folks. I'm in the market for my first BMW and I'm looking closely at both the E24 (6 series) and the E30 (older 3 series). Specifically I'm considering a 1983/84 633csi and a 1987 325. All the cars in my price range ($4000-$5000) are high mileage cars (over 100,000), but appear to be in very good shape. Would someone please provide some discussion on the pro's and con's of each model and which would be the better buy? I've been doing research on these cars as to the "gotcha's" to look for when doing my pre-purchase inspection like problem rust areas and such. I would also appreciate further discussion on these "gotchas" as well as anything else to look out for. Thanks!
Just purchased a 86CCSi tight engine, beautiful inteior, auto, with original stero system with everything in perfect working order for 4900. Stop. These cars must have the rubber replaced in the front end at the least. You more than likely will have to replace the u-joints. With a very good shape car I have spent over 4 grand just to get it up to min performance capibility. This car was in great shape. Be ready to spend money or learn to be a knuckle buster and get some jack stands. These cars ain't cheep
