but everyone around me says its a bad idea to get a beemer and that they're nothing but nightmares

They can be real nightmares if you buy a beat-ass pile. Get one that was maintained well (and keep up with it) and they're fine. There are faults with any make and model of car, and these BMW's are no exception, so your friends are right and wrong. I've seen guys buy old BMW's that have a "minor electrical issue" and they sell them within a few months after spending hundreds of dollars and countless hours tracking down the "minor electrical issue" and never solving it. At the same time, I bought mine with a binder full of reciepts that showed it's maintenance and major parts that were replaced in the previous 3 years before I bought it. (Here's a ballpark for you... a previous owner sank about $3000 into my car not including the purchase price to get it right).

Anyway, I have a 26 year old BMW and I bought it exactly one year ago today. It's my daily driver, and it runs like a brick shithouse.

Definitely good cars, very solid and well-built, but it's not the first thing I would buy if I was just getting into the car hobby. Some previous knowledge of cars is beneficial.

e30's are fine cars, its all about how you care for the car, so find one that has been well taken care of and it will treat you just fine. And when they are stanced out they are sex.

Oh and hell yeah for being 17!

Welcome to StanceWorks.

either of those cars would be great. solid engines and great mix of sport and luxury considering both are at least 20 years old.

dont listen to your friends from now on.
