autotrader lists no M3’s at any distance 2007-2012 under $35k they list 7 under $40k though, so he likely stretched the budget to get in it. ---

Got it for 46k, and they gave me a great deal on my trade in. Above my budget, but it’s exactly what I am looking for as far as options, color, features, warranty (certified until 05/2014) go. I absolutely LOVE the white/red/navi/sedan combo. I had to have it. Now let’s see if I have the balls to drive it for winter lmao. ![http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2579/5716066731_c66a3b3497_b.jpg](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2579/5716066731_c66a3b3497_b.jpg) ![http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2149/5716067331_2627bef79d_b.jpg](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2149/5716067331_2627bef79d_b.jpg) ![http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2457/5716631414_60b6a53150_b.jpg](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2457/5716631414_60b6a53150_b.jpg) ---
