I'm with you (although mine is a 2008 with 230k km). I work with a guy who thinks that spending money maintaining "such an old car" is a waste. He buys a new car every 2 years and is constantly in debt and fighting depreciation. I picked up this car in 2012 and the cost of ownership is less than 20% of his payments for his economy cars.

Agreed. My 2005 545 has 337k kms. Its not what the car is worth that counts, but the cost of owning and maintaining the car and the reliability compared to a "newer" car of the same performance that matters. 3000K $ a year is still cheaper than buying or leasing a comparable performance car. Insurance costs are lower too!
