M market watch

I wonder how much success sellers will have asking that sort of money for MCs with almost 6 figure mileages?

Not that I'm complaining as mine has done 102K now!
 
The 5-7k estimate even with 160k miles seemed cheap. Just the engine is probably 5k.
But it'll take £4-5k+ to get it right (espec with M tax) and then at that mileage worth what? £16k? I'm not saying it's right (I think they're criminally under-priced) but based on the economics, I wouldn't have paid that. Not the right colour for some either.

FWIW I think all Z4M should be £25k+. They're special enough to justify a premium over the likes of my 3.0Si which should be £13k-£15k. Not wishful thinking, just that I think they're worth it vs other shite on the road.

I still can't understand why people will pay so much more for an E46 M3 than for a Z4M. :confused:

Larger market IMO. The Z4 has always been very 'niche' whereas the 3 series is mainstream.

I have seen a few E46 M3s at car shows this year and a few E86Ms. The general public are much more interested in the M3s IME.

Not wanting to be controversial but at one of the shows this year there were two E86Ms parked near me. Everybody was walking straight past them to get to mine!! :rofl:

E46 are nice but for me, E86M every day. Maybe the market will catch on - very fickle world out there!

That's fair enough, but I've had a couple of E46s and while they were good cars they weren't a patch on an E86. Preferring an E46 seems a bit like choosing a Cortina instead of a Capri which nobody who had a choice has ever done!

TBF I'd walk past a Z4M to take a look at your handiwork.
 
Thanks for your kind offer but I buy my cars to drive, not look at, so if I had £80K for a toy I'd be wanting more performance than a 3 litre Z3 can offer! ;)
0-60 in 5.5 and 150 top speed. How much performance are you after (at your age)? :poke::poke::rofl:

I had that sort of performance in my 3 litre Coupes but wanted a bit more so I bought my M that does 0-62 in 5.0 seconds. 😝

It isn't easy trying to keep up with B21 on a deserted Scottish road when his yellow peril has 550bhp!
