What would you say E92 residuals will be like over the next 2 years? I am currently weighing up whether to keep mine for another 2 years or replace. What would you expect my e92 frozen grey dct late 2010 car with a decent spec to be worth two years from now (currently 24k miles and do about 6-7k a year)? Today I would say its worth £32k on a forecourt and I have been offered £29k part ex against a new car.

It will be a 6 year old car in 2 years time. I would say around £20k. Maybe even less unfortunately as there are so many of them around at the moment.

£23k-£25k but the M4 has not yet been released so this will be a large factor?

2 months ago I got £18k for my 2008 e92 m3 , manual gearbox, 50000 miles when trading in against a new m135i.

I'm guessing that the new m3/4 is going to knock e92 m3's of this sort of age down by a grand or two more than they would go for if the new one wasnt around

Think few of us will be in this boat who have the E92 M3. Do we cash in now before the market will likely see a decrease when the M4 releases? I think well spec'd low milage examples in the right colours should still hold the money. If you look at 9yr old E46 M3s with low miles and good spec some are going for 16k and holding. Think I may go the AMG route next anyway as not found of the new engine note but we will see...

I don't think so totally different market, the M4 is a 56-65k car, and that's not going to effect the price of a 6 year old car at a third of the cost.

BMW have been giving away the last 18 months of production on the e92 m3 with heavy discounts on list so the gap between the 2 is already done.

E46 m3s bombed pretty hard when the e90 came along. They then bombed even harder after a few years of them being around. The.bottom then fell out them when the e90 became 3 years old.... Market was flooded with the end of pcp and lease deal cars which just pushed them down.

I can't give you a figure, but this is just what I remember from looking at e46, then buying one, then the value they were worth a few months after I bought it! smile
