I see an 08 M3 in my near future
cuz this 04 4.8is is nothing but a headache. rebuilt the tranny and now all of a sudden there is a 5 sec dealay to go into reverse and actually closer to a 10 sec delay getting into drive after reverse. the air bags just started to leak too.. wow this was always my fav truck car whatever but damn it will put me in to the poor house.. Im thinking a certified M3 with manual transmission ( cuz we all know how great the automatics are) will be my next vehicle. on a good note the e bay brakes I bought are still holding up very nice. anybody have any ideas where i should start with my asking price. I have a warranty on the transsmision so obviusly i will get that fixed first..its an 04 4.8is with the suede inserts. fully loaded with 122k and new axles, brakes and front wheel bearings and new plugs and coils.

Get the tranny fixed, make sure it's alright.. Get an estimate on what it'll cost to fix the air bags...( u mean suspension airbags or safety ones?)
With that amount of mileage, I'll say probably around 20k? Maybe a bit less. Just throwing a ballpark out there.

If you want an M3, I would go for the DCT in a heartbeat over manual... (for daily)
Gear changes are fast as hell and those downshifts? Achhh..paddles |

honestly if the trans is fine then i would be happy with 17k . thats a really nice down payment for my m3.. would absolutley prefer a m6 but an 08 m6 is little pricey. yes the suspension air bags i was talking about. but i just went to check it and its not low on that side so i guess its a intermittet thing.

Get the '09. The iDrive in the '08 is very clunky. '09 is many times better.

Curious to know if you think the 08 M3 will be less upkeep than the X5?
