+1

The same goes for AMG cars. I remember being floored when I saw the price of an S65 that was less than a year old and probably 2K miles that dropped about $60K in price. Unreal.

He may have meant at the time the car came out it was the most powerful?

Aren't the 2 SUVs right now the most powerful cars BMW makes?

I notice this too.. but it is all about Supply and Demand. Used M Series has lesser demand because (1) Maintenance is more when compare to their non-M version, (2) Is still an expensive used car even when they drop 50% in value, (3) Most that got money to buy a new M will buy a new one cause they got the $$$. If you don't have enough $$$, then (1) & (2) still applies.

Which makes AMG / M cars very cheap used.

But don't you drive a... um.... 335?? With all the people running N54's around here, you'll get a lot of shit for that for sure.

Nope, don't have 335i anymore... had it for 3 years, and what a lemon that was! Such waste of money. So, now I'm on market and ready to pull the trigger on M3 or M6, both CPO, or new M3... Love both cars. I think M3 V8 also touches the supercar category...

....and there are only very few CPO M3 for sale, and many M6... why is that?
....M3 with CF roof and 6MT is a rare find... and every M6 coupe comes with CF roof and many 6MT...
