Its an I6 retard. Open the damn hood.

>Autotragic convertible roadster

>auto
its garbage. The automatic they paired with this is awful for that engine
>v6
it's an inline six. if you want to keep it running well you're going to need to learn to wrench
it's probably the 2.8, which is actually a decent engine actually

i mean...you could manual swap it, but it's tough

True dude, I adore my parents. I would've probably preferred a manual but the fact that im able to have a car like this is nice, so im not complaining.

Mfw OP is not only autotragic but knows next to dogshit about cars

All good OP, I drive a manual v6 mustang so we'll be in the same boat for a while. Although I bought it with my own cash and can fit a 10ft ladder in the thing.

Im not afraid to admit it, its true. Cars are a new hobby for me.

i wouldn't thank them just yet. without knowing how to wrench a z3 will start clawing at your wallet since you won't know common issues or easy repairs and will probably go to a dealer for everything

if you fix everything yourself, it's not too bad

I could just get Veeky Forums to tell me how to do it. Right guys?

>this
Euro maintenance is no joke.
I kinda agree with the user that reccomends a jap shitbox.
You look young and if you're parents are handing you cars you probably can't afford to live with an older german car.
The fact that it's auto makes it even worse.

>your*
Ftfy euro cars aren't even hard

No OP, go here zroadster.org/ or here www.bimmerforums.com/forum/

Veeky Forums will just call you a faggot and post benchracing stats of how a miata is faster than your """""sports"""""" car.

no
go to the z3 forums and start reading

actually wait, shit, you need to find the previous owner quickly and get as much information from him/her as possible as to what they fixed and when. otherwise you're flying blind

assuming you

it'll actually treat you really well and cost well under a grand per year to maintain

>Car a ugly shit
Looks like it has downs syndrome

Thanks all for the advise. Im going to be living with my parents throughout community collage. My dad is good with German and Italian cars. He can help me fix some minor stuff and help pay for any maintenance. (Im not trying to sound like a snob with rich parents. Im very thankful for my parents willingness to help me financially.)

It'd be leagues more beneficial to just start fixing shit yourself. If your father has not taught you anything about cars by college* he'll probably not teach you anything now. Unless you were one of those faggots that never hanged around their dad when he wrenched. Still though, learn it yourself.

t. college graduate fag that was in the same place 4 years ago

I take offense to that, as a florist with a turbo Saab 9-3 convertible.

I am disgustingly gay though
