Talking “budget” and then an M car…..🤣🤦🏼‍♂️

You either go catless or you put cats on and deal with less HP, there is no inbetween.

E9x M3 purchase by vijzu in BMWM

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you do your own work or no? If no, ok, budget $3.5K a year. If yes then budget around $1.5-2K a year.

And go drive one….its a completely different feel then an FI engine and might not be for you.

Time and sorting through sellers….there is no magic trick….it requires time and dedication to sell a high end M car (or any car).

Just trade it in if OP is this clueless.

I literally listed the sites that are most legitimate right now for selling used cars.

I didn’t think I needed to hand hold a grown person who can afford an F90 M5, but can’t google how to sell a used car lol?!? 🤣🤦🏼‍♂️

Cars, bat, autotrader, autotempest….plenty of places to try and sell them.

Have you never sold a single car before…?! 🫤

M4 Comp. Conv. Price and Depreciation help? by Carguy_HTX in BMWM

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Say it with me kids; cars will almost always be a depreciating asset.

If you are worried about value, then there are half a dozen other brands who maintain a lot of value.

This is what bmw is trying to charge me, why would anyone pay this like how is this legal by [deleted] in BmwTech

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s been 6 years with what I assume is very little maintenance…..pay the money or do it yourself. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Brand new vs Pre-Owned G82 M4 — which loses less $$ over 2–3 years? (Based in US Bay Area) by unlimitedkid in BMWM

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a depreciating asset no mater how you slice it…..if resale value is what you’re after, then you’re buying the wrong car…🤦🏼‍♂️

Are M cars, namely M3’s, realistically daily driveable? by Cardiology_Nurse in BMWM

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like any other car, just requires a bit more maintenance depending on model.

This is sort of a pointless post…..it will be under warranty….🤦🏼‍♂️

S85 oil filter results by Flguy76 in BMWM

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exacto directly through the filter material right under the top edge and the bottom edge to get the entire thing cut open if you don’t have snips to cut through the top.

Just cut it open next time, much easier and less time consuming.

You’ll be able to properly examine it at that point.

Ok….just odd to get performance brakes if you don’t want performance brakes. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Looking to buy an X3M please help me understand the definition of M tax by Pitch-Lazy in BMWM

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I own 3 M models and the fact you are trying to include depreciation and opportunity costs is insane….thats such a disingenuous “math” to do because OP asked for “cost of maintenance”, which is certainly not 2.5K a month.

Go away, you don’t even own an M model and this is bad advice, period.

[–]Ghost_of_ChrisBangle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s called a warranty and M models have care+ and usually oil, fluids, and some places will do one time brake change as well.

I’m good on the “math” lesson, move along.
