So, either you keep it, or you get another car entirely. I think a decision is more about whether you want the car, rather than buyout price.

Also, I've heard that BMW FS May knock it down for you A grand or so. I will call them and find out.

Good luck.
That's a good point about the sunk cost fallacy. The money is already spent at this point. Just debating if I want the M2 Competition now with brand new warranty and maintenance. Also thinking about getting a manual this time.

Are you saying I won't get this car for 52k because it'll be more or less than that? And I thought the residual couldn't be negotiated?

I like the car but I don't really drive it the way it should. Never tracked or autocrossed, but if I get the manual M2 I feel like I'd be more involved with the car and keep it for several years. I'm also considering the Audi RS3 at this point as well. Thanks for your input!
I meant that you won't find a 2017 F80 ZCP, with 22k miles on it with original MSRP of 85k for $52,000 right now, much less one whose history you are sure of.

I was in the market, looking nationwide, for a long while until very recently and everything I was seeing was more than that.
