I think it’s lost cause here unfortunately majority of brand new car buyers are so excited about new technology that cars become smartphones on wheels. While there are still few enthusiasts it is simply not enough to keep some models alive, and sales figures show that. This will lead to high prices on used car market in those. Low demand but low supply as well. Unfortunately for those few interested. Bmw has been considered premium brand for years. They will simply not make another simple car without modern gimmicks. All the automotive media would bash such car for not being up to modern standards and that would lead to poor sales. Look at cars like MB CLS or BMW 8 series. When tested they are pointing at low rear headroom… Who in their right mind would buy any of those for rear headroom ? Road and track and other automotive magazines will point it out like it’s their biggest discovery. Right Sherlock. Keep them coming.
My point is this. Market moved on in the direction enthusiasts do not like and it will continue to do so. Meanwhile we will have to pay premium for what we like to drive.
