It always seems that the modded cars sell for less than a complete stock one.

One can only speculate on the latter. As to the one being auctioned, owned by a forum member, it isn't over until it is over. There's a bit more than 10 minutes left. A popular technique on internet auctions is for serious bidders to remain unknown until the last few seconds and then to place a "sniping" bid. The theory is that bids attract other bids, so if you want the best price you don't bid until the very end. Alternatively, that might be what the people looking for this car this moment value it at. The current price isn't terrible, it's more than the car sold for when new.

Sold at $58,000 + BaT fee $2,900 = $60,900
I think market price based on mileage. |

The cars which would be considered "collectible" at this point in time, which I would personally define as those in good condition for age and whose mileage is under 50,000, would probably range from ~$50K upwards, probably peaking somewhere in the $60 thousands for your most museum-quality car with the lowest possible mileage. As "collectible" cars age, the "permissible" mileage to be considered "collectible" must by necessity go up, otherwise all "collectible" cars would need to reside in museums and not be driven further. So, in another 5 years your 1M with 60K miles on it could again be considered collectible, and so forth :-)

I think the Navi is the least desirable option on the car (or any potentially collectable car because it gets outdated so quickly).
Of course, I would take a mint navi car over a so-so non-navi car any day of the week.

The M2 has hardly any choices in the US at least, you can get the "Executive Package" or not, some extra black grills, a sunroof, a choice of exterior colors, and that is about it. The 1M offered a few more choices. With the 1M, the question is, "what are you going to be confronted with in the resale market?" There were some differences in the cars that were sold in Canada, vs. those sold in the USA, and a lot of the originally-Canadian cars have migrated south, like so many snowbirds in November, so that also needs to be considered :-) Basically, the car was not available with a sunroof, so they are all "slicktops," which type (without sunroof) would probably be considered more desirable except for the fact that all of them are that way. Navigation and "idrive" (they came together) are a biggie, and I for one don't care for the navigation system and screen in the 1-Series, which is the same in the 1M. So some might want the Nav, and many will not. The Nav can be easily and cheaply updated; there is a forum member who sells the download codes necessary to update the mapping, and the cost was $50 the last time I checked. I have Nav in my 135i Coupe; I don't like it, but I did update it last year because it is there. I believe that all, or nearly all, of the North American bound 1Ms came with the upgraded Harmon Kardon stereo, which is worth having in my opinion; the basic stereo in the 1 Series is nothing to write home about. Then we get to the whole notion of the "stripper" cars, which a handful might show up from time to time on the resale market. Personally speaking, I don't think that a stripper with manual seats is worth 10 cents more than one with power seats, and the 2 or 3 other things that were "stripped out" in the strippers can't possibly add up to enough weight to notice, unless you think that leaving the floor mats out will lighten up the car . . . . some will disagree. Basically, those are your choices.

I think time will be kinder to 1Ms with the least amount of tech? as the car itself (and those who seek it) are searching for something that can no longer be bought new. |
