If you want to drive that car get a 135i with much greater marginal utility, or for 1M money, ridiculously higher performance. Seriously, do you know what $50K+ can do to a 135i, including the outright purchase of the car? Here's a list:
--Modify track and geometry to match or exceed 1M specs
--Modify with much better dampers than 1M
--Modify with much better aftermarket diff
--Change steering rack for tighter, if you're into that
--Ridiculous power. How much do you want?
--Optionally comes stock with dual clutch, blowing man trans out of the water for hard driving
--Money probably left over for other stuff, depending on how extravagant you went on the foregoing
Oh and if you want to invest long term look at the stock market.

Yes, I do know what $50K can do to a 135i.
I had a long reply written up to address your points, but I'll just say that the above, specifically "Owning a 1M for driving OR investment is really, really silly" is your opinion.
