Honestly, I'd really like an older, pre e-nanny 3-series, but I'm concerned It would demand a good chunk of my life's savings to keep it alive. I'm thinking an E30 would be quite cool. Or maybe an E46, although I think it's pretty e-nannied. But since I've learned what those codes mean, have I become more of a nit? (Actually I think the true BMW nits are the ones that buy it for the pinwheel, not what's behind it.)
