I was almost going to pick out a very closely spec'ed to my order car this morning but honestly I thought, eh I'm going to wait until my April delivery to see what's going to happen. There's a lot to be determined here, it's obvious, and it may end up having a review that rescinds/stalls etc. the grandstanding going on by this administration. Right now it's a lot of "We're big and bad look at us" decisions going on. I'll give it time when it comes to my m2 purchase. If it's marked up higher and I still want it, then i'll get it.

Otherwise, I'll check out lightly used ones.

Anyway, pretty clear explanation of what will happen due to tariffs, as unbiased a look as you could hope to get.

Very interesting video. Thanks for sharing

will used prices go up or down as an orphan model if this plays out to its logical conclusion (cancellation of the nameplate for the US market)? i think it will depend on BMWs response in the lineup. i've hypothesized previously that BMW might bring over G80/2 "pure" (read: stripper) models like they did down under for the F80s. i think if BMW appropriately fills the baby M car vacancy in such a fashion that used M2 prices might actually get weaker.

i would imagine the next 7 days will give us a lot of clarity. for all we know this tariff lasts about as long as the Columbian one did.

Hate to break it to any that is thinking of getting an M3/4 if the M2 is no longer feasible. Tariffs have also been proposed for the EU. No idea when those would go into effect through, but it appears it would be sometime in the very near future.

Porsche owners are going to start to argue over who paid the most ADM plus tariffs.

They should sponsor to pay for anyone buying an M2. Massive bragging right brah! Amirite?

There is about a $10-12K jump from M2 to M3/M4 based on my specs and that gets up to $90K or so. At that point I start thinking about getting back into a 718 Cayman or Spyder for a bit more money, or getting one of the collector cars on my wishlist like a first-gen NSX.

I guess I felt like the M2 was a good price point to be at (dare I use the phrase "good value") but the M3/M4 not so much.

Pre-owned M3/M4 may make more sense if I can find a nice one. They take a hefty depreciation hit in the first couple years.
