New Addition G87 Zandvoort Blue
Hi All – Got a new G87, here's a sneak peak before I share the story
 My second M340 xDrive (AW with Red interior) served me very well and for almost 18 months I loved it. The LCI looks good and attracts attention everywhere I go. I really liked it and was planning on keeping it for long time. Here’s a quick image from the day I traded it in  So, what is the story  I like browsing BMWs for sale and checking where the market stand at the moment. While doing do, I found a nice M4CS at a local dealer for sale. I decided to check it out. The car only has about 5k miles so I got excited about it. I checked it out and what a surprise.  The car was not in a good shape with lots of issues  I moved on immediately. However, next to it, I saw an M2 Zandvoort Blue Since it was a 1st time for me to see this car in person and in close proximity, I liked it a lot. The color was amazing. You know when BMW introduced this car in that color, I was disappointed and felt how wrong BMW was to introduce such an important car in a poor color, and man, was I totally wrong  The color is amazing. I decided to search for a car and see if I can find one in manual transmission.I found a car with the exact same configuration at BMW of Catonsville. I went to check the car and wow it was amazing  What’s next?! I was not ready to make to get a new car today, but now I’m ready for one. It was a manual transmission with carbon fiber roof. A short test drive got me convinced that I need to go home with this car today. Interior was great too with carbon fiber trim. So, decided to trade my one-year-old M340 and I can use my other car for commuting but I have to get this cool car BMW of Catonsville treated me very well  gave me a good offer and handled the whole transaction smoothly  The rep there is a nice guy, reach out to him he will help you out, Joe Fung Finally, drove home with the car and could not be happier. |

Nice pick up. I, too, traded in a 17-month old BMW 330e when I was just browsing slightly used M3/M4s and found I could get a brand new M2 for less. Did a several state search and found a "used" '23 with 430 miles on it with pretty much every item I wanted only 50 miles from me. I contacted the dealership while I was out of town and started the purchase process. They gave me a very fair value for my trade (a lot more than the local BMW dealerships), and I picked it up as soon as I got back into town. Now have 1,280 miles & just had the break-in service completed Friday. Very happy with this as my new daily driver.
