Most on my search out of curiosity are 8ZF with manuals not as prevalent as most in the USA seem 8ZF with my search. Another manual for you to consider. Private owner - https://www.cars.com/vehicledetail/d...0144/overview/ Last edited by DSTR; 12-31-2017 at 02:28 PM.. |

hey!
I've been driving a 2014 M235i for 4 years and have 27500 miles on it. The car is in perfect condition, fully loaded (52K MSRP). I use it mostly on weekends and did 4500 miles last year. I decided to put my car on sell because I ordered a Tesla Model 3. I should get my invitation to configure in the next 2-3 weeks. The KBB private value of my M235i is between 30K and 32K. In the last few weeks, I got contacted by a handful of people (mostly low ballers) but I just got a serious offer for $30750. But now I'm debating if I should sell my car and order the Model 3 or just keep the BMW for another 2 years. To decide I'm trying to look at the cash flow of both options. Any idea of the additional depreciation should I expect on my M235i in 2 years and 10'000 more miles?Will the car be easier to sell in one to two years because more accessible for buyers? |

Also I have great contacts within BMW and I was told at this moment here in the GTA, 2017 m240i’s are still floating around and until they sell my cars value is what it is. They did say it would be worth more by end of May onward but who really knows. Love the car so it just means I’m going to do some nice mods like the MPE,diffuser and mineral white mirror caps so that will be fun. |

You will always lose huge on the after tax amount, you can never hope to recover the taxes you paid since the next buyer has to pay them.
so your loss is probably more like 15k, excluding tax, which is not great but not horrible you always lose the most in the first year... In 2003 I bought a 2003 350Z and wasn't too happy with it after a few months, I looked at what I could get for it after 6 months and I would have lost 12k... and the 350Z's were very popular back then...so really the m240i's are not doing all that bad |

You’re also comparing apples to oranges by selling your Mustage privately vs a trade in on the BMW. You always get severely F’ED if you trade in. |

It will get way more attention than the 2 series though. People go nuts for the look of that car. |
