I’m betting it’s a mod. Has carbon charge pipes that the OPs car doesn’t also.

Great color, black interior and made for US servicemen FTW. The e92 LRP is paint and a muffler and people are falling all over themselves for those 200 cars. This here is ten times more rare. Individual paint and low mileage as well.

Sorry to say, but that "special edition" is a rip off. It has nothing special going for it except for black wheels and marking on the dash, headrest and stress bar.

I love the color, they ended up selling new for $70K or so, I agree the price is way off, but it is a beautiful car that I would pay $3-5K more for over a comparable M3.

Thank you for you interest. But false MSRP was 96k but it was available special offer for US Military stationed in Germany for 80k..

You forgot the last part, where in 2019 these "special edition" cars sat in Stuggart dealer rooms deeply discounted at $70k USD, some sold for less than that. You were one of the few to pay 80k, sorry for your loss

F80 prices are holding steady and even up from a year ago due to covid, the G80 grill and the US Fed pumping money into the economy.

Take the special edition away and a clean 14,000 mile 2018 F80 with individual paint is not far off here from a reasonable offer. It is rare but may not drive price at this point. Plus a 3 year warranty is worth something.

GLWS and if ur military then thank you for your service to our country.

Well ill be picking up a R35 GT-R soon 2018+ and this F80 will just be chilling in secured storage facility. I wouldn't mind extra cash. but if I don't sell it ill just keep it. I am guy who doesn't like keeping cars stock. Since its 1/20 I don't wanna do any mods to it.
Nice! I have mostly OEM mods except for my Eventuri chargepipes and intake. Next for me is gonna be a Porsche GT car. Just not sure which but I plan to keep the M3 for awhile. GLWS

How did they justify the markup if there were only embroidered and etched badges?

What makes it special are the individual touches. F8x with individual paint & interior options are rare in the U.S. Some of the things you don't see are the fact that the silver trim on the door panels where the ambient light is and the silver parts of the dash trim are painted fashion grey. Also the stitching on the seats and leather on the door panel is slightly different from other F8x. While I don't think our cars are as special as M4 GTS I do feel they are on paar with M3CS even without the slight bump in hp.

Sorry, but that's funny. The Velocity Edition has nothing that increases velocity. Quite the opposite to the CS that has many performance enhancing elements, the CS is much more than just the bump in power.

I meant as far as it being a limited edition but you know what they say about opinions.

dude you are out to lunch. If BMW rolled out their regular M3/4 in batches of 20 "special editions" in single colours each run, while producing the exact same 20k M cars, what is so special now again? Anyone can order special paint and actually be even more unique than "1 in 20". Anyways the market will tell you how special the car is.

Right anyone can but 99% don't. Most people don't order individual options like this and those that do both have something that is rare and special. I had a M4 comp in chalk paint with individual black/ Sakhir orange interior that I got to drive for a couple months from a dealer in Munich. I would say that car was just as special as my M3 velocity edition. These cars will hold a slight premium over F8x comps without these added individual touches. That's all I'm saying.

Not really, this is a discussion forum not a FS one. And it puts the "value" of what the OP is selling in perspective for potential buyers.

If he would have posted in the correct section for cars for sale and not stated that the price was "ONLY" 71k it may not have been as bad. But then again this is also a community of BMW drivers.

The fact that it's "Edition Velocity" and not "Velocity Edition" bothers my OCD enough to not even consider one of these. GLWS though.

^This, most of the time a supposed rare/only appearance package does not automatically make something desirable or valuable. It is one of tens of thousands of other cars with different colors and some embroidery/meaningless badging.

But, it only takes one buyer and there are exceptions to every rule. GLWS OP.

Agree. Someone that's looking for a super clean, under warranty, unmolested, low mileage unique F80 because let's say he can't stand the new G80 grill, and maybe the OP comes down a few thousand. That one guy is going to be very happy with his purchase. I'll bet there is more than one out there too. Nice car OP. I'm sure you will sell.

I don’t think it’s anymore desirable than 30 Jahre edition M3. Those cars are not getting much of a premium if any vs regular M3 comp.

I prefer this one over the Jahre solely based on the color/interior of the Jahre is just plain awful. At least this one has one redeeming quality and that is its paint.
