That sounds like a contradictory story. He loves how it drives so much he doesn’t drive his Porsche but has only put 200 miles on his 1M.

I will say again, unless you’re buying this car strictly as a speculative investment, it’s not worth $92k to drive around. It’s special, just not that special. And I realize I’m posting in a 1M forum with fanboys who all fantasize their cars will be worth millions. But for just a few more grand, I bought a CPO Boxster and a new Corvette. I could buy a Z06 which I feel is an incredible car for less than an this aging 1M cost.

Ok we get it man you don't want a $90k 1M. That's fine. Lol...we aren't interested in your 4 banger Porsche or your Vette. This is about the 1M.

I agree. I believe that a car like this should be driven and enjoyed but I also believe that the few people in the car community that buy these cars and store them in private collections are like our historians. Eventually most M1 that are on the road will die out but people that garage them save that unique car for our history and generations to come. It's also helps make the car more unique and rare too. Overall I believe in driving a car like this all the time, but those few people that protect them in collections shouldn't be shamed. In the long run 30-70 years down the road(pun not intended) we can enjoy knowing that there are still original classics safe and preserved.

My car definitely won't be worth millions. I have driven it as intended, and am not shy about it. I could probably sell it for original MSRP give or take a few grand despite 7 years and 53k miles of pure enjoyment. Name another car that would do THAT for me. Not a fanboy....just a driving addict who found the perfect match.

30-70 years?!

My 1M currently has 90k miles. It will probably have 90 million miles by then!!!

The person who bought the car maybe richer than most of us, probably have more cars and boats than us and bigger house too.

Cant shame the person who kept it for years and had under 900 miles nor hate the buyer who you think over paid for it.

The value of the car is what someone is willing to pay. Shit, I can see someone having a M and super low mileage. How do I know, well because im one of them people.

Honestly and respectfully, that wasn’t my experience...in 2015. Much less now.

When I got my 981 CS in 2015, I also drove a base 991, 1M, and 991 CS...and the 1M was a distant 4th. A faaaaar distant 4th, from both a looks, tech, and (especially) driving experience perspective - it was a hell of a bargain in 2011, but it’s expensive now because it’s production numbers were artificially limited. It was an experiment, albeit a cool one, by BMW to see if people still wanted a small RWD M car. Turns out that about 6,000 (I forget the exact number) people worldwide were willing to pay for a MT only car with the 135 engine and bug eyes.

I’m glad that was the case, because we got the M2, M2C, and I’m sure the M2CS out of that experiment (all better cars in every objective test).

But don’t get it twisted...the 1M is not anywhere near the level of a car that can regularly command $92,000...and fun is a subjective application, not a factual one.

I never buy anything on looks alone so I still have yet to experience what makes these cars so desirable, maybe some that also loves to drive cars can enlighten me...

1m fanboys in this thread are getting really butthurt. relax guys no one said the 1m is a bad car, but no one can argue it's worth that much money. there are many better cars for better prices. if you love the 1m that is great and good for you for having one. stupid is still stupid.

People can’t respect other’s opinions without resorting to insults. I get it, you don’t like four cylinders.....again to each their own. 8 cylinder guys disparage six cylinder guys too. I love my Porsche much like you love your 1M. My 135is with Dinan tune is my daily driver and a blast, so I get the attachment, but I am just trying to inject a little logic.

If I said my 135is were worth $60k because low production numbers and due to increasing 1M prices, you guys would be all over me.

Wow! A lot of supposed M2 owners hating on our beloved 1M.

Hmmm 🤔 Jealousy does suck gentlemen.

But, no worries....... most of us will pick up a M2 on the cheap soon enough 🤣

You see the M2's are depreciating like crazy if you haven't already noticed. Sort of like the middle child syndrome/complex stuck between the 1M and the M2C.

Your M2 will be had in the 30's very soon 🤣

...and honestly that's probably what they are worth considering the M2C is out and superior.

Of course all you M2 owners are crying about how that should of been the original M2 from the start. No arguments there! You guys got screwed!

But, don't be so salty about it and don't take it out on us!

Peace ✌️

My impression is that you have never driven one, however opinions are like assholes, and everyone has one (unless, perhaps, one has had gender reassignment surgery). This is not to say that I'd pay 90 grand for one, or for any car, in fact.

almost bought one based on the hype, put a deposit down, drove it, wasn't blown away, and changed my mind. it was a modified version of the cheapest car in BMWs lineup. the M2 is better, and I cant stress this enough, in quite literally every possible way. The 1M is just rare. most of the people hyped on them have never driven one, and half the people that do own them and say they're the best car to drive but always drive one of their other cars instead.

It appears from your signature that you own NEITHER. So we will take your opinion for what it is worth.

I, along with a number of other people, happen to own both of them. The M2 is a fine, modern, car. I am liking it more than I did when I first acquired it, new, in March. It is, however, nowhere near as fun to drive as a 1M. I bought my 1M used, so I never did get to experience that new car smell, which I did get in spades from my M2, the first new BMW I have purchased since 1993.

The M2 is considerably more luxurious than a 1M; it is certainly more modern. It drives well. But is it inspiring like a 1M? No, it is not.

Peace ✌️
Actually, I don't regret my purchase of an LCI 2018 M2 in March, at MSRP, although I ordered my car and it has the desirable MG color, plus zero options. I didn't buy it as an investment, I bought it to drive, mostly in the winter and in conditions I would not drive my 1M through. It's a disposable car, like most any other.

I don't agree with your assessment of valuation, not because I think that the "regular" M2 will defy gravity when it comes to depreciation, but because I think that the M2C will likewise depreciate, like any other regular M Car. When they are 10 years old both will command about half of their original MSRPs, assuming that we are in a somewhat inflationary environment.

The M2C is not some sort of special supercar, it really isn't, and allusions to things like "middle children" are sort of silly. These things will trade based upon supply and demand, and I promise you that there will be adequate supply to meet the demand. The biggest threat to future valuations of all the versions of the M2 will be external factors, such as the desirability of small passenger cars 10 years from now, availability of fuel, restrictions on internal combustion engines, etc.

I have 6 cars and drive all of them combined less than 12,000 miles per year. I am also away from home quite a bit and drive rental cars a lot, which are not counted in this total. So unless I were to decide not to drive my other cars (some of which are also special), then I really don't have the opportunity to drive my 1M any more than I do.

But let's not focus on my situation. The 1M is a 7+ year old car, and it has value; it has become collectible. I own other collectible cars in my little stable and like the 1M, I drive them similarly a relatively modest number of miles annually. I would suppose that most people who can afford to own a 1M at this point are also in a position to have other cars to drive, and since the 1M (or an old Porsche or a Z3M Coupe, or whatever, fill in the blank with your preferred collectible and older car) isn't going to be a primary vehicle for most at this point, it will therefore not be driven all the time.

I don't see that you are making a real point; the 1M is an older collectible car now. Most owners are going to treat it like that. Perhaps that explains why there are tons of Z3M coupes out there that have less than 100K miles on them, in spite of being 20 or almost 20 years old. That is what happens with older, collectible, cars. People own them as second or third or 4th vehicles, that's part of the normal progression.

Back to the M2, it's not special; if you think it is, then you have very limited experience with special cars. There are quite a few older BMWs that I would much rather own, as a new car, than the M2 that I own now. But do you really know anything about either of these cars you are pontificating about? I doubt it.

And your point was?

The 1M is just rare. most of the people hyped on them have never driven one, and half the people that do own them and say they're the best car to drive but always drive one of their other cars instead.
I have 6 cars and drive all of them combined less than 12,000 miles per year. I am also away from home quite a bit and drive rental cars a lot, which are not counted in this total. So unless I were to decide not to drive my other cars (some of which are also special), then I really don't have the opportunity to drive my 1M any more than I do.

But let's not focus on my situation. The 1M is a 7+ year old car, and it has value; it has become collectible. I own other collectible cars in my little stable and like the 1M, I drive them similarly a relatively modest number of miles annually. I would suppose that most people who can afford to own a 1M at this point are also in a position to have other cars to drive, and since the 1M (or an old Porsche or a Z3M Coupe, or whatever, fill in the blank with your preferred collectible and older car) isn't going to be a primary vehicle for most at this point, it will therefore not be driven all the time.

I don't see that you are making a real point; the 1M is an older collectible car now. Most owners are going to treat it like that. Perhaps that explains why there are tons of Z3M coupes out there that have less than 100K miles on them, in spite of being 20 or almost 20 years old. That is what happens with older, collectible, cars. People own them as second or third or 4th vehicles, that's part of the normal progression.

Back to the M2, it's not special; if you think it is, then you have very limited experience with special cars. There are quite a few older BMWs that I would much rather own, as a new car, than the M2 that I own now. But do you really know anything about either of these cars you are pontificating about? I doubt it.

And your point was?
a car being a collector car doesnt make it inherently great. and I really dont gind the M2 all that special, but then neither is the 1M. you didnt say a single thing about the car other than it's a collectible car. big whoop, why tho? because it was rare.

theres a laundry list of bimmers I would buy before I even considered a 1m or an m2.

E36 and 46 are the best cars I've ever driven bar none. every M car since then has been in their shadow for me

Wow, I think this thread might be worse than the Giulia QV ones...

Pretty sure it was a fake ad posted by a dealer to get a bump in ratings and positive reviews. Dealer posts a for sale ad that is in the realm of believable, but certainly overpriced so that no one with knowledge of the car would actually buy it. After some believable time passes, an involved party "buys" the car so it shows as a legitimate sale, the dealer reports the car as sold, the dealer gets a ++++ rating and a positive review from the involved party. Happens all the time using ratings booster services. Go look at the reviews for some products on Amazon.
