Ok I've been thinking about buying a z3 M coupe, and I've found a few with 70k plus miles for around 19k. First of all is that a good deal. Secondly if the car looks like it has been cared for, is 70k miles descent for a z3 m, or is that way to much. How much life could I expect out of a Z3 m Coupe with that many miles, before it started requiring constant trips to the mechanic. Oh and please post any help or suggestions you might have, even if its about bmw's life span in generanl and not just the z3 m coupe.

You will find way more help on bimmerfest.com or bimmerforums.com
I have a 2000, 41k miles, $27k.
Need to check out the rear sub frame for cracks. There are so few M Coupes (700 or so in 99) that if you list the seller and where the car is for sale, year, color, interior color..... the guys on the other forum probably can tell you all about the car and why it's so cheap etc.
As there was one in Bothell WA for $18k that was silver, everyone knew it was previously wrecked and posted it there to warn all people looking for Coupes.
