I took delivery in November, and I love the car, I just thought it would be cool to have a slightly more "mature" car than the sport sedans I normally drive...I want to pick up an E46 M and get back into the fun car scene.

Cool, drop you khaks, close your eyes and wait for the sound of the rubber gloves going on cos your are going to be truly rogered!!
but the reconciliation is that you are buying a far better car. assuming you have the money to look after it ?

I went from an e46 M3 ( purchased new and had for 3 years) to a new 550i. Now that I've upgraded the wheels and tires, I'd have to say I like the e60 bettter. It is fun when you want it to be, but also so smooth and comfortable with the convenience of Bluetooth, Comfort access, etc. etc. The M3 was on rails, and was fun on the rare occasions I really utilized it's capabilities, but it was not all that comfortable a daily driver. Maybe I am just getting old er.

alright, so in response to the last 4 posts, in order.
I'm aware I can't sell it as brand new...I was just stating that so people would exagerate how badly I will get raped.
as far as the model year 07, I did see a few 06's going for some steep prices on ebay...certainly not 12K off.
I really don't know what I would sell it for. It's Monaco Blue.
And finally, I know they are night and day between the M3 and E60, but I'm still fairly young. Although now that you mention it, The M isn't much of a family car, and the prego girlfriend probably wouldn't approve. damn.

My Ride: 750Li;CLK63 Black Series (Retired);
I tried selling my car with less than 1k and my dealer was going to give me 8k off the price I paid. So, I said said to myself hmm...I'll keep it for now and rape my dealer on a X5 4.8 off the lot. I'm thinkin buying @ cost. I'll let you know w/ the details when I execute this deal. I also want the M6 too. -_- ...will I soon be living in my cars w/ no home?
