Just noticed that the ordering guy for the new M5 platform is out and ready to order for November Production. Anyone considering one?

never will i purchase a brand new M car.....i took a $40K depreciation poop in two years....can't stomach that again.

on the other hand, my almost 4 year old 911 "only" lost less than 20K. go figure.

I hear you. I think most cars will behave like that. Clearly M cars because of the price tag they carried the value of depreciation would be much higher, but I see it and imagine as I am paying for an experience. That depriciation I see it as I am paying for an experience. I rather pay a little more and have a great experience every time I get in my car. I feel is like going on vacation, would you be willing to pay a little more for a great vacation vs an ordinary one?

But I do understand and I am with you, Porsche market is and will always be strong on the 911s ( I had a Cayenne as some point and it tank in value). I am looking as we speak for a new GT3 allocation which I haven't had any luck. You can still see almost 2 year old GT3s, or GT3rs going for MSRP. Not to mentioned the 911R which is going for 2-2.5 have times MSRP.

Yes!!! I will upgrade from my old E60. Had to let it go since I move to South Korea. I guess we will not see any full pictures till after Frankfurt motor show. Will wait till then to place my order

I am the same way now after watching my X5M lose something like close to $30K in just one year. I know you gotta pay to play but seriously.

You got a GTS, which keeps r definitely keeping its value, but high mileage 911's depreciate quite a bit.

The 991.1 regular 911's are not keeping their values.

For Porsche, it really depends on the car, Cayenne's don't keep their value. I have a feeling the 4 cylinder Boxter/Cayman's base model won't keep value either.
