+1 on your point.
the 1M is just a car where i can do everything, go anywhere, park anywhere and i love it that way. i can't do that with the gullwing. nor the M5 is sometimes to big to park with
This is a no brainer.

Sell the depreciating asset that is difficult to park in the M5 and get back to the limited edition 1M that thrilled you.


It's always depressing to see when guys indicate that they are making car decisions based on a girlfriend/spouse or significant other when generally the SO probably won't be around long and typically really doesn't have a financial interest and probably will never even do anything but sit in the right seat of the car.

When I bought my 1M my WIFE was dead set against it. I applied for the loan on my own and Did European delivery ( she actually refused to consider euro delivery trip up until the day I bought the plane tickets ) and we went and she has bought 3 BMWs since then. We have also since divorced!

So. Where the hell would I be now if I had listened to what she wanted ? Yep, you guessed it, i would be posting about how I missed out on one of the best M cars ever and complaining about the high price of finding one in the market today.

I also would have missed out on a ton of driving pleasure.
