Prices
I just bought my '06 Z4MR w/5,300 miles for 31k,plus a $250 inspection, plus $700 covered transport to New York. Changed the brake fluid and oil and put on new Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires. With tax I'm all in at 35K. Definitely overpaid but I don't miss that extra $ in my bank account.
Find the right buyer in the spring and they will pay. |

I think buying from Enthusiast is overpaying unless you're rolling in money and just want to make damn sure you're getting absolutely the best without having to do your homework and due diligence. Just like buying a Land Rover, vintage Mercedes or classic exotic from Copley.

It's all the Vanos & rod bearing threads scaring people away
In all reality, all cars have a (virtually) finite bottom-out price that they'll end up at. Some cars begin to recover from there, but in longer periods of time. Given the fantastic S54 motor and limited availability, I don't think Z4M and Z4MC will dip down incredibly low. OP - The way I see it is now is the time to get into one of these cars. Wait any longer and they'll be 10+ years old with higher mileage, which is OK, but I don't know if I could see myself purchasing a car with 6 digits on the clock. Right now they aren't quite there yet, though the price has seen a bit of a dip. Your answer lies below...

It really is the simpleness of these cars that make them so great to me- no fancy computers- just a great little engine, nice slick gearbox, and looks that are quite different from most others on the road. -gc |

You can always rebuild the motor if you want the car bad enough and the price is right.

I tried to buy the car linked above today, they say "we are a high volume dealer" and will not budge on price so we left
The car has a few scratches around the trunk, a big chip on the trunk, swirl marks, rims loosing clearcoat or stained from lack of cleaning. The seats have tears where they have been pushed back into the rollbar. There's a nasty break in the plastic behind passenger seat, and a crack between drivers seat engine hunted bad and long cranked but may just have been old gas, it drove nice but they would only come 500 off the price, we were prepared to buy today but they just wont budge and it's got too many issues for a price that high

I wouldn't worry much. For all the thousands of these cars on the road, you only hear the horror stories. Every car and every engine has its issues. If you keep an eye on them, there is nothing to worry about. Just run some searches through these forums, and you'll find out everything you need to know.
