2) Pricing drops too quickly.
3) Extremely difficult to sell

BTW is the resell value a thing to consider?, so far which one has the best resell value?

Is that the GTS or GTSR?
I think you should consider the bodykit after you get the wheels
I dont think I will get it the no 1 make body kit to fit the LCI unless I pay even more $$$ for it.
I will stick to my roof and boot spoiler for now and save up for our Z4

The F01 will drop price quicker than S class, and of cos 550i will be harder to seller since it is not the popular choice.
You can see E60 525i dominated the market rather than 30i , 45i or even 50i. smaller engine is earlier to sell

Options 1 and 2 needs to come with chauffeur, or you will look like one.

Option 3... hope it will still be under $1M

I'd go for option 4.

if I am to place a bet, I guess Will will get BOTH 2 and 3 (with lot of options) within the coming few years.

pamper yourself and you will have more tolerance with your wife and kids, which leads to a merrier family.

I am "ok" with the handling of MB S class, I do drive my dad's S500 every now and then, but I can only say it is a good car for the passenger, and it is bloody easy to park and making a U-turn, but! It feels too much like driving a Wii car game (not even PS3!!)...
So, I think I have a battle inside me between the choice of pleasure for family and pleasure for myself

chauffeurs usually supply green cap to their employer instead of wear them.
