The marketplace has been telling us that these 1-Series cars aren't worth jack shit for at least the last couple of years. Any highfalutin expectation that these cars would ultimately be valuable has been repeatedly shot down.

And yet, you can't find a good one, or at least not easily.

Someone please explain this to me.
Good ones are hard to come by, and when you do, you will pay to get one. Mine is a perfect example. I had convinced myself that I wanted to sell, so I put it in the classifieds for $18500 (2011 DCT, 17k). Within a week I had a full asking price offer from a guy in Chicago. Not bad for a car we bought for 37500 7 years ago. Ultimately, I decided that I'd miss it too much and even at that amount it isn't worth selling, so I kept it.
