haha well, I know there's depreciation, along with the fact that of course we should never expect to get much of an offer when it comes to trade-ins. But man...that's still a pretty big hit IMHO. I'm just chalking it off as Blackbook not being able to account for rarity, etc.

In any case, I'm not serious about trading in/selling just yet. Need the additional income flow first before I would actually consider it.
But that's not to say that if the right offer came long one day, I wouldn't take up on it
I think I'm just getting old and moving onto the next stage in my life. I want a comfy, fun sedan or sorts now. Like a stock M3 or maybe even an M5, most likely used. If M3, I'd try to stay away from E9X, as they still have the same rod bearing issues as our S54 motors.

All in all though, my car buddies all tell me to just keep the car, and pick up a beater on the side to help preserve the Z4 in the meantime. I think that logic is quite sound
