I currently own 2018 330. I really want an M5 … but the new ones go as high as $100k and the used ones are around $90k-$70k depending on their mileage and year … mileage being around $20k and year being 2019-2018.

If you owned BMWs, you know they aren’t cheap to maintain … also after 45k miles or 4 years the manufacturer guarantee expires and you are on your own….

Should I drop the dollars and buy the new one or a used one or just don’t buy it as it is a waste of money ?

    Have you considered the M550i instead of the M5? M550i is more comfortable than the M5 for day-to-day, and still packs quite a punch.

      Dude, you're being dumb. Everyone here can make out from your comments that you have never driven M550i. Please stop being a stubborn baby, and go and take a test drive.

    Why are you keeping 1 million in cash? Responsible thing is not to buy a 100k car but if it's your dream car then it's your call.

    Why not just lease for a few years?

      Yeah you aren't building ANY equity on it. BMW throws TONS of tech and plastic housing around the engine. It will not last 7 years without major maintenance. LEASE LEASE LEASE. You will probably be a different person by the time its up and you can choose a different route then.

  • I am chuckling reading this, are you building equity on a car by buying? It’s not a house, cars depreciate not appreciate. You got to be trolling us man. M5 is not a classic car that will grow in value.

      Answer 1) nah but it is better to own it that lease as the lease is pure waste of money but by owning it you at least have some equity in it when paying it back through that 3 year (lease period is 3 years) so that’s what I meant

      Answer 2) f&&k off

    • Yeah it’s your money, you need finance 101 in your life. Sounds like you will pay for your car and drive 2K miles every year like a grandma, ever heard of the term garage queen?

      To 2) Grow up son, and go back to your parents to learn some manners.
