:plac: finds v2.0: Moar gold on the crangslist

:dat: M cars in general aren't going to drop like a pedestrian ass 430i. They do though… m5s, xm5s, xm3s etc all drop like crazy. Yea one can claim “they are not real m cars” or what not but they are. OK, I will amend my statement. M cars WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION will not depreciate much/rapidly.

Local CDJR dealers are sitting on a ton of inventory here too. I didn’t realize prices have risen so high on Jeeps. No wonder they’re sitting. 50% in 4 years :dat: It's wild.

2020>2023. The m3 that I had was worth 56k on residual but 49k in the market when I traded it in…. They went to 60-65 and are still 55ish.

:dat: I think track time and where/what highways you're driving on make the biggest difference. It also comes down to how much the car is worth to you. It's a big expense and seemingly can be a pain, so not something I'd bother with on an appliance car. I’d never track a car near and dear to me. Un...

It's wild, the Uranus is everywhere, I see one almost daily in CLT. Also have a neighbor with one which is strange as well. Granted the house is a tear down/new build and is large, :butwhy: blow $300K on a Uranus whilst living amongst the poors?
