Seems like a good investment, I'd just crash on that one turn at Nurburgring over and over. Probably put it on youtube with rawk music just like ken block. But that money could probably go further in farmville. Or just have a lot of mcdoubles. Any choice is winning in my book!

I don't know man, I feel like I should donate a few McDoubles to that Nigerian prince bloke...he says he'll give me more McDoubles! #mickydoublelifestile

Heck right now I want to drive my car off buildings; we all know it'll all be fixed up soon enough! And I can always sell off the headlights and stuff, I'm sure some kid out there wants a piece of the action.

Tell me about it, love driving cars off buildings in GTA5, worst case, you're out 5k, have to steal a poor person car in front the hospital and can't afford as many tag team lap dances.

Lap dances in GTA5 are quite entertaining. The club is really fun to be around, I can embrace my inner Chris Brown. Pity the graphics arent better.

^ Really wish I didn't see that M4 concept "robot face in the fog grille" thread. Instead of looking mean and nasty it just says "howdy kids" in a towley voice. Hopefully this makes sense to someone...ugh...need to go to sleep.

yup BMW is over compensating themselves with profits these days.

I would never buy a brand new bmw again cuz they are way over priced. Even a 3 series sedan is getting to be $50k+ loaded.

Certified pre-owned with a few years old is the best way to go....until bmw come back to EARTH with their pricing.

M-sport? Who cares, best feature seems to be the "neck warmer" in the cold weather pack!

For comparison, my 2013 E93 M3 (Convertible) stickered at $82k with most options (I got it for $77k, which was nearly invoice). So it looks like a fully loaded 2014 335i convertible is about the same price.

I'm bracing for the cost of an M4 Convertible but still hoping to get one! I'm guessing it might hit $90k+ with options, which will make me think twice vs a used 991 Convertible. Pretty amazing how much more they're charging than just a few years ago. For further comparison, my 2006 M3 Convertible (last year for the E46) was $67k sticker absolutely fully loaded. So somehow in only 9 years they will probably have increased the price by about $23k!! Really crazy... That M4 better be a fantastic car or it won't sell as well as previous generations at these new prices (not that it's a high volume model!).

Anybody notice the curb weight? It's 4095 vs 3610 for the coupe. The vert weighs as much as my 535i.

That's got to be a typo, you'd think that would be a pretty big hit to fuel economy.

No Harmon Kardon without a Nav system? I don't get why you can get HK as stand alone on the 4er coupe but not the vert. Any insight?

I think u meant to say $60k+

BMW prices are getting to be a little out of control....and in my opinion, they're not building cars that justify the increases.

Nothing surprising here, pricing for new BMWs has gone through the roof.

Plenty of people here with F30 328s over 50k and F32 435s over 60k. These cars aren't worth that much I miss the days when you could get a base E90 M3 for 55k.

only a little.

Check out how much the E93 weighs. It's the damn folding HARD top. It should weight within +/- 50-100lbs of the E93 despite being bigger, that has been the case with the F30 and F32, the F33 should not be any different.

The 435 prices are up, but aren't that much higher than the E93 when you configure them with M-Sport, PP, HK and Nav - I get $64K with the 18" wheels and no DHP, which is ~$1K more than the E93 as I recall from looking earlier this year.

I also lament the loss of the MT option, it's another step towards the day when they aren't available at all (although personally, I wouldnt get MT on a vert as it's more of a sunday drive with the wife car than a toss it around the road like an M3)

It's definitely not a bargain, but it's a good looking car and might be on the list when the 135 vert lease comes due next year
