This is an ex-rental car, but most of my other cars have rebuilt titles, so I am not really afraid.. only concern is what to check when I do an "in person" inspection prior to Sale, All ready confirmed that Insurance would run $800/year .
I am aware that this is a Lithium Iron Phosphate battery, but I have those in my basement powering my house so I am happy with that technology. (I don't plan to drag race the car LOL).
Spent months investigating 2022 Chevy Bolts in same price range, but decided that if I can get a low mileage 2022 M3, (even with the rental car history) it will hold value better when compared to the now discontinued Chevy Bolt.
I was shocked when I started seeing these 22 M3's below the magic $4000 rebate price of $25k, and I would consider a vehicle with 13k miles nearly new.
I am not very familiar with the M3, but have read that the 22 is better (quieter, rides better) when compared to the 21 and earlier versions. Reports are that most "features" are standard so heated/cooled seats, Heated steering wheel, power seats, and limited lane keeping, automated cruise control features,... no FSD of course, but I could rent that feature to try out if I wish.
Can the experts here make suggestions on what I should look for when I do my "pre-purchase" inspection.
Do I assume I will get a home charge cable for the NEMA 14-50 outlet I am installing.
I will of course do a careful inspection for interior and interior, but are there any of the service screens I should look at to see the guts of the car?
Thank you in advance for feedback.
Let me know if you think I made I good deal, I think I have....
