There are just too many of these cars made to ever qualify as collectible, i.e. worth more than what was originally paid new. I'm guessing the E46 M3 guys tried to make the same argument, only to be proven very wrong. I still want one, however. |

So, they have to raise the cost of it to offset the ongoing costs of keeping it on their lot. It's owned by the bank, they're financing it as well. The longer it sits, the smaller their margins get at which point in time they need to offload it and mitigate further loss or jack the price up to create more margin for them to profit off of.
Go in there, lowball them on what the original price is and they'll play ball. Especially when they're faced with having to pay tax on at the beginning of January. Good Luck. Bring your own highlighter. |

Specs are impressive but it still is based off of the N55 just like the S63 which is based off of the N63. All I am saying is that there are valid points on both sides. OP, wanna buy my 13 M3? 7.6k miles. All of the options except extended leather and cold weather.

The S65 can trace it's lineage to the late-90s williams F1 V12. While the M5's V10 bore a greater resemblance, the S65 isn't far away.

Thanks for posting this, though, I wasn't aware of the final boost number for the new engine. It seems they reinforced the N55 engine and added a bunch more cooling so as to maintain that 18psi. I think procede was able to reach that number on their n55, but it took methanol and race fuel and all sorts of other crap, and even then it dropped to like 12 by the time it reached redline. I'm ever more convinced the tuning on the new engine won't give the huge results everyone is expecting (I've already seen multiple claims of 100 extra HP, come on ), especially after lap or two to let that heat soak in. It will be a better streetcar for sure, with more torque to address all the complainers and an awesome new interior. I doubt it will be a much better performance car (although it will be better there too), certainly nothing on the scale of E46 to E92. I can't wait to snatch up an F80 when the LCI rolls around in a few years. By then, I'll be running out of warranty and will be approaching 50,000 miles on mine, the perfect excuse to replace the bearings and slap on a supercharger.

$43,900.
I found another one with less miles and nav. We're not far apart on price, but the original owner replaced the comp wheels with some black 5 star 20" wheels, and looking at the pics, looks like it has aftermarket brakes. I'm trying to get more info on those items (The car is at a dealer now). But if I were to buy it, I would want to put the original comp wheels back on. And that won't be cheap. |

It's a great tactic. People who has been watching it will buy once price drop back to its original price or even $500 below.
