Ok well.. it seems that here's exactly what I need to argue against:
Mom would rather me get a car with lower mileage (vs 92k) because of worries about reliability (dad's M roadster's back subframe was tearing because of defect, read about it here:
http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum....php?t=402183), misc problems with other cars, former 1987 Dodge Aries needed work every week it seemed.
She wants me to get a new Hyundai or something like that.
So basically, I need your help convincing her that this BMW will last for years with minimum maintenence (couple of times a year + basic tune ups, oil, brakes, tires, etc.) and is practical for someone about to enter college for a good price of $6.5k.
Can you guys help me out here? Thanks in advance!
