First M that was mine (had access to a E36 but it was not really mine) was my E46 M3 purchased at 33 years of age.

24 years old i picked up my M3. Now, 26, have both the X5M and the M3.
As far as waiting, yes part of me wishes i waited. I have a problem now that i probably will have a difficult time driving any 'basic' car again. Even driving a fully loaded 340 M sport loaner left me feeling empty. I also work really hard for myself, so not a trust fund baby either. I see how we need to justify that sometimes...

might help to ask who "bought" their first M car, not including leases. Many young people can pay monthly on this car, but not many can pull the trigger on a finance, or a buy out. I've leased my first M at 26, and purchased the f80 at 29.

That really is irrelevant. A person who "purchased" their car has no more ownership than the person who leased. Until that final payment is made, the finance company owns that car, not YOU. It doesn't matter if you purchased outright from the beginning or chose to lease first, gauge your investment/desire to keep the car after 3 years, and then refinance the remaining amount and keep the car. We all have to go through the same credit approval process, so you're not better than anybody else who chose to lease. Leasing is often the smartest choice for many people, especially when write-offs, the desire to always have a newer car under warranty, etc. are factored in.

P.S. Yes I have leased M's in the past. No, I didn't lease this particular M4. Last edited by Sedan_Clan; 04-11-2017 at 03:11 PM.. |
