Used prices

I randomly looked at used car prices and it seems that g29 z4 prices have gone up massively again? I assume because they have stopped production?
 
Prices of convertibles fluctuate throughout the year.

Spring - the prices trend up. It’s not just G29, it’s all convertibles. (More people looking to buy them)

Autumn / Winter - prices drop.
 
Asking prices for convertibles go up this time of year. Whether actual sale prices do, I'm not sure...
 
Prices have seemed to have stalled /slightly dipped... probably to do with whats going on with the conflict in Iran, the price of fuel/ energy security problems. Global EV/PHEV registrations are up 6% in April, in my street they seem to be going EV mad :oops:
 
As above. Most convertibles sell for a bit more at this time of year. End of production run is also going to move them up a bit.
 
As summer goes on convertibles get less and less, more want to buy, less sell. If you want to sell you wait until the open top driving season is over, more become available in October onwards but less buyers. Lowest prices December through March.
The G29 is a very good open top tourer, looks good, comfortable, plenty of space for full luggage, cars tend to change owners every 2 or 3 yrs as owners tire of the toy and move onto another. I plan to keep mine as long as we want to do open top touring, there isn't anything else that fits the bill for us

Because production has stopped good cars will depreciate less, mechanically they are good with very few issues showing yet
 
I’ve been watching prices to see if anything tempting appears.
I’ve not driven one so as an E89 owner I’m interested to hear opinions on them.
 
I've had mine for about a month and put on ~2k miles. Fun and comfortable car that is surprisingly more practical as a daily than I had expected.

If you are serious you need the Tech Pack with the HUD, standard instruments ain't great

Does the HUD work with prescription sunglasses?
On both BMWs I have had with HUD I just couldn't see it when wearing my sunglasses. It was fine with other makes of HUD; Ford, Mazda, etc.
 
I think it’s polarised glasses that won’t work. Others should be fine.

Not very well if yo have polarized sunglasses, but I can still see the speed limit flashing in the HUD when I exceed the speed limit:)

I think they are epic to drive. A lot more comfortable and practical. I do love the e89, but the g29 is much more complete car.
 
Think I've had my G29 2.5 years now, really like it (even though I was a critic when it was launched). Pick up one with all the gizmos.
