I genuinely like this chassis and Im very happy to have one of the last N20's with updated timing chain components. I think this motor is underrated and overshadowed by the TC problem, although relatively rare. Plan on driving this thing for 200k plus (knock on wood). I drive about 25k per year.
If one has a touch of mechanical ability and interest in vehicle maintenance and potentially upgrades... I believe the F30 can be a real bargain comparative to the market. Great drivers car that can be had for cheap, especially once suspension is dialed in.
If you're interested, you can see more details about both vehicles in My Garage section of profile.

Good to hear that you stuck with the F30. I agree - they are great cars but attract a bit more flak than they deserve. Best of luck getting to 200k! That is my goal too...we'll see if I can make it.
