He/she can....it's just not terribly logical.

I’m looking now at a ‘23 M60i frozen marina bay blue, fully loaded with the exception of the trailer hitch, at 10k miles for $106k. Trying to bring that down to < $100k. No accident history, single owner, etc. The service records show that the seat motor had to be fixed, but other than that, nothing.

For the money I would recommend a pre LCI alpina xb7. Pro and cons on both sides. I’ve had 3 x7s.

I ended up passing - the marina bay blue frozen is beautiful but wayyyyy too loud of a color for my wife, and probably too flashy for work.

It’s like comparing a 430i to your M4C in acceleration and feeling the M4 is only marginally faster.

Just admit it, at 503hp/479lbft vs 523hp/553lbft you didn’t want your wife to have a more powerful vehicle than your M4C. ….

Notice he said 50i and not M50i
