I’d never buy a used car with more than 30-40k miles. If it’s around 30k-40k miles, I’d say you should be mostly problem free but you’ll have some maintenance things to take care of: Brakes and fluid
Go with ebc yellowstuff. If you like to drive a little hard. Changing the brakes on these cars is very easy by the way.
I’m on my second lightly used BMW. first one had 25k miles and was totaled at 60k, current one was bought around the same time and is now at 40k. Both have been great. A little pricey on maintenance because it’s around the time when things like brakes need to be replaced but completely worth it in my opinion.
Saved thousands and now have EBC breaks and rotors with red stuff , better performance way less money and installed from a highly recommended local shop!
I got mine in November 2024 brand new. M Sport Pro in Carbon Black.
For starters, it is a pretty reliable car. I have done 13,000 kms in one year, plenty of road trips along with some being on steep mountains.
So far, it has given me 0 major issues.
I’ve got a 2019 with 110k km, have only had to change the brake pads outside of normal maintenance and that’s cause I drive it hard. Most reliable vehicle I’ve owned
96 GF8 STi with EBC orange stuff pads and EBC rotors. Stock brake calipers
I drive a Twingo rs at the moment, with ebc yellow brakes and they are fine enough for the money. Also had them on my previous car a turbo mx5 and they did the job.
I ordered ebc pads for the front and they got here and they're way too small.
The EBC blues are not track pads... Despite how they market them. Once they cool from behind very hot they glaze over...
