Hence, as the 2018 models come out very soon, this 4 year old M6 with a $150K MSRP will be about $54K. Next year, will be mid 40's. Year after, mid 30's. The following year, upper 20's. Crazy, isn't it?

BTW, sounds like an awesome car. GLWS.
The only issue with what you wrote is that depreciation is not straight line. At one point, the value of the car will just hold, likely around the mid-30s in about 3 years.

But I agree. 2014s are valued at mid-$50s, next year, expect a $10k depreciation. That, you can bet on as 2018s are still being cranked out. I think by 2019, it'll be harder to predict the speed of the depreciation. I predict likely only a $5k-$7k drop from 2018 to 2019.

I'm using the E6X M5/6 as a gauge. I've also observed similar depreciation rates of the E9X M3.
