Lol, Dinan. Unless you have enough money to S3 the LMB. Then do that.

The S3 is a way better value. Low mileage cars sound nice in theory but can turn out to be a pain in the rear end.

IMO, i would bank on that 2003 coming down in price a bit... maybe give it a few weeks and make an offer. 45k is a lot of freakin money for a 2003. is it really worth 25k to give up ~50k miles? i mean for 45k you could probably get into a mildly used e60 (>20k miles) or get a 2000-2003 with high mileage / problems for say 13-15k, drop it off at a rod shop for a full rebuild (not really sure here, maybe 5K?), do some suspension mods, brake mods, and it'd be good as new

What is your interest in owning the car?

It's like asking "should I buy a Porsche or BMW?"

What will you do with the car? HOw long will you hold it?

A
