What's market like for BMW M3 in America?
I'm looking at buying a 2011 BMW M3 to bring it back to America and sell. It's used with 561 miles and listed at $60,500. Just wondering what the market's like right now if I'd like to buy it, have fun with it, and sell it several months after my return to America. Do the options make a huge difference or would I be a guarentee profit/break even? It's 6spd of course, Alpine White, navi, and CF roof. Think there's a few other things. Not sure if I'm asking all the right questions, but I know nothing about BMW's. Someone said M1's are marked up in the U.S. and it'd be better to buy that instead.

I was looking at purchasing one next year but I think by next year i'll pick up a GTR instead. I would say just sell it before coming here.

Re: What's market like for BMW M3 in America?
Hey I work hard for my toys, I don't go out like I did in college, I'm not a kid who has his parents fork out that money, and as I get older there are a few things I'm willing to compromise with but what I drive isn't one of them.
I look at it as if I'm throwing that kind of money in a car if it's a 65k loaded m3 or 75k gtr it has to be something I enjoy driving.
Now back to the m3 topic it's not worth bringing here from Germany because after shipping you'll still sell the m3 for less than 60k as most m3 enthusiast will be awaiting the new m3 supposedly dropping in 2013. But if you want to bring it here and sell it cheap I'll scoop it up
