So you think the 03' 325i wont be a bad buy??? Cuz i really would like to get it...but when people hear that its a BMW for $8000...they come out and say i could find a more "reliable" car for less... but what 03' beemer can u find wit less than 100k for that price?? hardly any from what i see from my car hunt...

just make sure it is thoroughly checked out by a knowlegeable mechanic
is it worth price? that's subjective
I'm sure you could find a more reliable car for less money, but do you really wanna drive around in a Camry?
