So, I talked to my wife about this car over the weekend and I think there is a very high chance I'm going to buy a used 2020. Based off reviews and videos I think it fits what I'm looking for the best but I still need to test drive one to make sure.

It cost me $540 to do my 987 brakes and that was with OEM manufacturer pads and Bosch rotors. If you paid OEM pricing on a 987/981 it would be $1000 and on the flip side you could buy some of those cheap generic kits from Power Stop and the like for $350 which includes everything. Those same cheap kits can be bought for your X3 for $300+ off of Amazon and other sources. So if someone wanted to go cheap they could pay half of what you did. Though I also see you're in Canada so I'm not sure on the difference there.
