Exactly. It was crazy. Some dealers had 10+ sedan M3's with manual on the lot that they were dumping. It was a bit scary taking the plunge in the first year seeing the over supply. It seems production was slowed on the sedan, which then stabilized the supply / demand, thus resales were stable.
Since I picked up mine up at a steep discount, my depreciation is smaller than somebody who payed MSRP.
