BMW should leave the toys to the 435. As it is now M stands for the most powerful MARKETING.
I would disagree - no pun intended, but the Porkie owners are probably higher up in the net worth ladder, thus they have alot more staying power when it comes to selling. I find that CSL owners (not all, just some on the margin) are having financial trouble in keeping her, thus reselling at less than desirable prices so to remove themselves from the debt burden. Just my observation from the UK market. Remember prices are determined at the margin and anyone who's selling at fire sale prices sets the market expectation.
