>>14128830

Get something simpler if you intend on working on it Else you'll have nightmares and your wallet will hate you.
>>
It's a great car
and it's not hard to work on if you know how to work on cars, specifically BMWs
Otherwise you might have a tough time, it's no Honda that's for sure.

Fast but a little dull, too sedan-like.

Don't ever get a sportbike if you think that's any sort of small interval.

Tfw GS400guy gives the best advice itt so far.
>>
>>14128830
Adjusting your valves is easy. Once you know how, it becomes a 15 minute job if you're not autistic.
>>
>>14129224
Implying it doesn't take a $1000 kit.
>>
>>14129320
I got my kit for $550, it pays for itself honestly.

LS swap it and it will be reliable

>>14133786
Few models I actually like
Z4M & E38 are my favorite
Doesn't mean they aren't absolute shitmobiles that suck to work on for the average person, but I know my way around them well
>>
It's a good car op


You should also consider an slk roadster

What's your budget
>>
regular z4 is in top of my favourite cars to drive better than a porsche 4s for value and how fun it is so I assume the m series is great
>>
>>14136094
Hey butty man what do you say
>>
>>14128880

How the fuck is valve adjustment a thing on a car? I totally get it for a bike, but I've never heard of a car needing this.
>>
>>14137235
Old Beetles need them along with a shit load of other cars.

A BMW M30 needs one every 20k -30k miles.
