I know, I know - the 911 is obviously in a league of its own, there’s really no comparison at all.
BUT I’m really torn about what to do. I love the m240i, and in terms of a bang for your buck car, it’s so practical and a great value!
The 911 of course is a dream car, but with a huge hefty price point, that on some level I just cannot justify paying. I can make the payments - but it would kinda be tough. But the heart wants what it wants?
I don’t even know what I want lol.
Kinda venting here, but also open to hear your thoughts as well. Not sure if anyone has been presented with an opportunity to keep their m240i with the prospect of potentially “trading-up” to another car.
Let me know your thoughts. Thanks fellas!

If it's a big financial lift then I wouldn't do it. Don't become "car poor" over a 911. It's not THAT special or going to change your life. I had two of them. They are nice cars, but I now have an M240 Vert 6-speed if that tells you anything. I know you don't know me from Adam or probably care, but don't get sucked too much into the 911 Cult.
Some 911s are worth it...others not so much. There have been lots of crappy 911s over the years. A base 911 or lower end model is not worth it.
Just my useless .02
