I won't be retiring here. No doubt about that.

Enjoy your new car (it's awesome).

BTW: Orange, Sakhir or otherwise, is not the new red.
Well, if you throw enough money at BMW, they'll paint you a 1/1 Melbourne Red M6 GC.

I need someone else to do that so I can get it later like you did with yours. Imolarot II is the first choice followed by brilliantrot.

So in other words, you don't get rich by writing a lot of checks?

I wise person once told me that it's not what you saved (when buying something at a discount), it's what you spent.

Massive shakeup in the top 5 and honorable mentions.

Houston car has been sold and a massive price drop on the SMB car. A new SMB has taken over #2 and 2 new can't miss CPOs now on the board.

Great job on with this thread. I'm looking to buy when it hits 50k for a non-cpo with full leather.

Impressive depreciation curves on these cars. Insane.

You're probably looking at winter 2018-19 for a 2014 for $50k.

As a current owner I think the proper word to use is "terrible" instead of "impressive"

I think it will be Summer 2018 or i might go auction route. I don't want B&O and don't need CPO. My only real requirement is full leather.

Auction, sure...but retail may be hard, not in 6 months. Do you want CP? What's your mileage you have in mind.

There are already cars in mid-$50s already with high mileage.

CP is nice but is not a must. I'm ok with a higher mileage car, it won't be my daily driver. No more than 65k miles.

Hi guys after a 4 year hiatus am I'm looking to get into a 14 or 15 coupe, I know I know, no one likes the coupes but I've had a 750I for the last couple of years and I'm over the 4 doors for now. If anyone has any good links to used coupes please let me know. Anyone have any thoughts on this one?

nice! It's a great car from the pictures and options list. Had my car's deal fell through, I would have surely went after this one hard as it was also in-state for me. This car literally posted 1 week after I closed my deal on my car. All things considered, I would have been 50-50 between my car and this car, so I love your car very much.

Can I ask how much you paid for it? (excluding tax)

Also, what's the car's overall condition? How many miles does the pads have left according to the CBS screen?

Hey Guys,

I currently have a 2015 Black/ black 650xi Gran Coupe -- love it -- only thing better would be a M6 GC

whomever started this Chat -- you're Awesome -- its great to see these cars and the talk -- as I'm just waiting for the Right price and the Right car ---
I'll probably pull the trigger in Spring and get the m6GC -- only thing i'm worried about is the current 650 has Full CPO until 2021 -- do i buy an M^ GC without full CPO?? I have owed bunch m5's and x5m in past -- so i know its very expensive once something goes!

So questions:
1. Anyone have any issues with cars? or are they know to have any issues/ hiccups that I should look out for?
2. CC Brakes: i love the Gold look -- my BMW Service Adviser says "Stay Away" because of the extreme cost to replace -- Has anyone had to replace the CC yet? can you do the Pads without the Rotors?
3. Flat/ Matte Paint: agin i'm a fan -- but Service Adviser saying its a PIA to take care of -- can't go through car wash etc... True? the car would be a Daily Driver for me -- so not being able to use a car was would suck

Also thoughts on this one?

Sedan Power! Soon I will publish a memoir of my struggles of finding my M6 GC. Hopefully my followers can pick it up and use it as a basis for living their lives and such.

Thinking of calling the book "Meine Limousinen-Suche kämpft"
