I am beating myself up over this same decision - I have a mint 2010 E93 - and I love the car, but I don't track the car, it recently came out from under warranty, and I find myself driving my beater pickup around town most days.
Sure I would lose some of the M magic, but pick up gas mileage, lower insurance (maybe?) roll back into bmw's excellent 4 year warranty program and hopefully be out less than 10k on the trade in to the new car..
But that M tho... lol
