BMW repair costs...expensive?
I've been looking into getting a BMW because I'm in love with the looks of a 1993 BMW 325i that's for sale. The only problem is that I've heard that repair bills and parts are generally $$$$ compared to other more common cars (Honda, Toyota, etc). Can any of you BMW owners tell me the economical truth of BMW repair costs?

Yeah, repair costs are more expensive than for an ordinary car, due mainly to the high cost of BMW parts. However, the 1992-1998 3-Series is extremely popular, as is the 2.5L inline-6 engine in the 325i. This engine is known to be reasonably dependable. If you make sure the specific car has no outstanding flaws, it should be a good purchase if you are prepared to pay a little bit more for whatever maintenance does need to be done. It's also probably a good idea to find a mechanic who is familiar with BMW's.
Good luck. |

Yes they are expensive when something breaks... but rarely will something break. All in all the BMW will be slightly more expensive to drive than a Honda.
