The E90 is just too nice. Maybe it's not an investment like a collector car but they sure as shit are extremely desirable and maintaining their value.
I might just throw the M3 and ZHP in storage for the time I am living in the apartment. I am just mostly tossing around the idea of selling the M3 vs. keeping it. My mind is 99.9% made up on purchasing an X5 M

Have you considered an estate car (station wagon)? There are a fair number of nice ones available (MB, Audi, Cadillac CTV-S, Volvo V90) that have the space of an SUV but don't carry the handling penalty. Moreover, from someone who has 2 golden retrievers, getting dogs in and out of the tail of an SUV is easy when they are 2 years old and can make the jump up and down. But when they get to be 7 and up you may be stuck having to pick them up. I can pick up a 90 lb dog, but my wife sure can't.
