Did you pick it up yet?

No. They won't budge in price. They want more than KBB "sell" value.

I withdrew the deposit on the M6. Now have one on this:

<11K miles, 1 year CPO warranty, all inclusive service until May 2021, mineral white, extended leather. It is in perfect shape. Not as nice as the M6 but certainly good enough.

Fuck fuck fuck. You're right. I'm in Mexico City today. Just visited the dealer and sat in  and started the LAST available M3 CS in the country (of 7). Can't fucking resist. I am getting that bitch.

So this 'lack of interest in cars' was only a temporary thing?

I love it man.  You are such a fucking baller.  Best of luck and enjoy the new set of wheels.  Put up some pictures.  If you get arrested for driving it at highly illegal speeds, we'll take up a fund to bail you out.
A good friend will come bail you out of jail...BUT, a true friend will be sitting next to you saying, DAMN...that was fun!

Phew, and here I thought you were about to buy a CRV. 

Can you get the M2 Comp instead though?

I´ll have to just continue to hide my CRV-envy the best I can.

M2 Comp is nice two doors. See above. A 4 door will get used a lot more with my 2 kids and that's the whole point. To use it and enjoy it. Not a garage queen. I already have the other two-doors and those get used little because of that.

Also, we are getting an excellent deal on the CS so the price delta is worth it. The CS is the best current M car (for driver enjoyment). I am paying about 92K. It´s a lot but it´s a delta of less than 5K over a comparably equipped "normal" M3. (This car has the carbon brakes among other things).

The CRVenvy will only grow stronger.

Yea, I couldn't see a M2 comp as a daily driver... Just too harsh and the short wheel base is lively on a track but probably too busy on longer commutes.  Then the 2 door issue...

CS is a no brainer. I think it could replace the M5 too
