Thanks :ty:

I think it's prices.. try R250k

They were Willing to to R259 but without mplan extension.
Did not see the part about mplan extension.. these cars do hold their value, but only at the stealers.. I still think you can twist their arm a bit..

Price is high, spec is poor other than the performance goodies (and even so, why fit a BMW Performance wheel without paddles???)

I wouldn't.

I dont think the price is as high the previous posters have implied, yes the car does not have fancy extras( less to break), but it does have the dynamic option which is hard to come by. The mileage is low, which many of the lower priced cars are higher. Then theres the MP, most others dont have any MP left.

Theres also this one, at Zambesi, but no dynamic and not including MP extension.....

alternatively, get this one, out of plan and put the remainder towards a decent aftermarket warranty and still have cash left over for repairs.

You're kidding, right?

From both an ownership and a resale value standpoint, basic modern amenities like Electric Seats, Bluetooth and Pro Navigation would outweigh the intrinsic value of a relatively poverty spec "Dynamic Edition" with only carbon fiber bits, carpets and the wrong Performance steering wheel.

Had it come with the Alcantara seats and the right version of the steering wheel, as well as a few spec options, I'd agree that it's worth the money as something special...

But talking similar year & mileage E92 335i DCT money for this particular car is pushing things just a tad.

If was LCI E92 with DCT.. the e90 is not as popular and does not hold it's value like the coupe..

The only difference between the Dynamic and Sport Pack is carbon fiber spoilers and some decals.

Trust me you better off taking a sport pack with more extras at the same price.

Dealers will punt the exclusivity of a Dynamic now to sell the car, but just try to trade it in later and see then shy away from the fact its a dynamic.

Just my 2c

My problem is that i look at the value of what I am getting over what the value is in terms of resale and trading..., hence i drive an E60, only the third worst model in BMW's line up of depreciating assets.
