Car financing: the 2013 BMW M
CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2013 BMW M for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. Before you buy the 2013 BMW M, see the figures and the checks worth doing.
What to check on the M
Owners filed 25 complaints with NHTSA, most often about engine, air bags and electrical system; have those parts checked. There are 5 NHTSA recall campaigns on file; a dealer can check by the VIN whether each was done. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent.
Specs, explained
The engine is the 4.4L 8-cylinder turbo, with rear-wheel drive and a 6-speed manual. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
Rated at 13.7 L/100 km combined, it needs around 41 litres for a 300 km round trip. In money, 1,000 km costs about $239.80 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,850 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.
Room inside
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. It is 5.01 m long. Check the size of a tight parking spot. In plain terms, its 453 litres of luggage space hold a family's bags for a long weekend.
Good uses for the M
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going.
Rent it for a week first
Rent the M for a week, or up to 365 days, before you commit to buying one. If the M is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Renting first costs a fraction of the price of buying the wrong car.
Running costs
Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary.
Year and trim
Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary. Within the 2013 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which.
