I just realized that even though the M3 says "Starting at $62,000 MSRP", it's literally impossible to spec out the M3 like that on the website.  Isn't that illegal?

How can they advertise "As low as $62K" then? They may as well advertise "As low as free!*" *not really.

And a relatively comfortable daily driver. And my fiance said if I bring home another car she's getting a pet pig. Pigs are adorable. Do it.

Anyone can drive a manual car if you put them in one and tell them it's their only way home. It's not some arcane magic knowledge.

Here's a mind gently caress - replacing my Focus RS with a brand new M4 with the same coverage will DECREASE my insurance premiums by ~$20, according to Geico.

Cojawfee posted:Also, insurance rates are based on how likely the insurance company is going to have to pay out for that car. For an Aston Martin, most issues are going to be maintenance related, so not the insurance company's problem. And it's likely to spend most of its time not being driven much, and parked in a garage or somewhere else safe. So the insurance company won't have to spend a bunch of money on Aston Martins being crashed. Whereas everyone has a 3 series and they are parking them on the street, or in sketchy parking lots, and driving them every day, so it's more likely that they will get into a situation that requires the insurance company to pay out. The thing I found truly crazy is I priced out a brand new M4, and the insurance on that would be less than my Focus RS. But an M5 would be like double.

You can CPO a car that's been in an accident as long as it can be repaired to factory specifications - which means not even a nick on the frame. Replacing a quarter panel doesn't affect the car in an appreciable way.

kronix posted:If you order this car the auto driving package you're an rear end in a top hat anyway. If you want to have the car drive you, go buy a 330i. That'll just make it easier to figure out the people who walked into the dealership and ask for the most expensive version of the car they wanted. Or you take the car on long highway trips. I will never own a GT car without ACC again.

Lord Ludikrous posted:I had a friend who used to work in insurance tell me that BMW, Audi, Mercedes and Range Rover were no longer considered prestige vehicles with the exception of the very top of the range (I.e. 7 Series, A8, S Class etc). Considering the M4 is 7 series money and the M5 comp is decked-out m840 grand coupe money, I'd assume they generally count as well, no?
