In defense of my 2008 E90 m3 I’ve had zero issues with 77k miles and every drive is an occasion. The car is bone stock other than an Eisenman rear section and track pads for my 2-3 annual track days. Last Daytona track day the car indicated 162 before turn one which isn’t to shabby.

Yeah, I’d say if you have a $30,000 budget, by this car, get the work done on it, then enjoy the shit out of it. Sell it for what you paid for it a year or two later and take a pic of the smile on your face.
