Im about to get this car for 14000
http://albany.craigslist.org/ctd/1702578637.html
It has 98,000 miles on it. Do you think its going to break down a lot? What kind of common problems are there with this car? How much to to repair it? I know oil changes are a lot but its that pretty much it?
Answer
(Read it, trust me, if not read the END!)
I use to have the same car except it was a 2007 328i sedan, it was brand new so i didnt have a problem with it, I traded it in after 2 1/2 years and I bought a 2009 G37 sedan. Over all the ownership experience of a new BMW was great, the car was vey fun to drive, and best off all i paid $0.00 out of pocket for routine maintenance, anyone who buys a brand new BMW gets free maintenance on their BMW for the first 50K miles/ first 4 years of ownership........ A friend of mine use to have the same car aswell except it was a used 2007 328xi sedan with 45,000 miles on it, after putting 8,000 miles on it the car ended up shutting off on him in the middle of the road, when the car started up again he took it to BMW and they told him it was a vacuum hose in the engine that was broken which connected to a whole other bunch of mechanical pieces in engine, the initial estimate was $2,600 but the guy brought it down to $2,300 for purchasing the car from BMW. Remember his car was out of warranty! So he ended up fixing it and putting the car up for sale and he baught a 2008 Mercedes C300. I think an oil change on a 3 series is about $125.00 at the dealer but im not 100% sure?? There are always Lemons in every car manufacturer regardless if its a Luxury or conventional vehicle. Honda has some cars that deploy airbags when you hit a pothole or slam the doors to hard. Audi has oil leak and electrical problems, but BMW for some reason is always a lemon, it seems that 5 out of every 10 of their cars always have electrical problems, pump problems, major tire ware etc etc. BMWs are still great cars but just be ready to have money in your pocket if the car begins to ask for something. If your going to buy a BMW with High mileage you migth as well get a better deal, these cars are loaded----------->
I found a better deal for you, this one is even in your location. The car is being sold in Astoria, NY, and it has 60K miles and its fully loaded, it even comes with factory xenon headlights, I would even buy it cause it so cheap for the package!

Cars for sale in New York State?
CadiGirl
I Live in Lake Placid New York and im 16.
Im really looking for a newer year car that is in good condition.
Also under 10 thousand or less.
Are there any good used dealerships around hereeee?
Answer
When your in search for a CPO (Certified Pre-Owned) vehicle you can start looking for them at any dealer near you. Your everyday Toyota Dealer down the street can CPO some cars from the same manufacturer or even a car like a Range Rover or Mercedes which was probably traded in and now being sold as a "Used" car on the lot. Since your price range is $10,000 I would highly recommend you search for a car through a Private seller which can be found on some websites such as http://www.craigslist.org/about/sites . Advantages in buying a car from a private seller include buying a car with a cheaper Price tag, you have more room to negotiate opposed to buying a car from a dealer whos goal is to make a greedy profit. Some newer used cars in this price range usually consist of economical sedans or coupes like a Ford mustang, Scion TC, Mazda RX-8, Mazda 3, Toyota Corrolla or a Nissan Altima etc etc. If your in search of a luxury coupe or sedan you will probably be looking at an older model probably an 02-03 BMW 3 series, Infiniti G35 sedan, Audi A4 or Mercedes C-class, the cons in purchasing an older luxury car is the possibility for extensive maintenance repairs in the future and older cars tend to have alot more miles packed into them opposed to the newer more economical 05-07 models of a Nissan, Toyota, Kia at the same price point. Since you have not narrowed down what you are looking for exactly such as a Coupe? SUV? Sedan? Hybrid? Luxury? I have taken the liberty to list some cars that are up for sale in your area (NY). But my god you live far, your actually in UP STATE NY!! You might aswell move to Vermont your no where near "Newyork" hahaha. These cars are being sold across Buffalo NY, NY city, Albany and other citys. Hope this helps.
(Economical Sedans, coupes and SUV's under or a little above $10,000)
