I typically get cars in the mid to upper 20s so this would be more than double what I normally spend. I can afford it but feel like it might be a mistake.

I could just drive my 2018 230i a year or two and wait for a CPO model. I have 56k on that car and unlimited mileage CPO til July 2024.

But this car is so fast and the upgraded interior is so nice and I am getting old and it would be really cool to get one more new car before I am done.
Plus, how long will it be before used car prices go down? I have looked for a 440xi coupe with manual and THP and they are like unicorns and when you find them they are asking mid 40s for them.

If there was one anywhere close to me I could buy off the lot I would probably do it on an impulse but I am living an an M240 desert.

Anyway, thanks for listening and any brilliant advice is welcome.

YOLO

Just do it.
