Value of our 4.6is?

M3 has an element of collectivity.

X5 is disposable. As fans of the X5 we can bemoan that, but that doesn't change it.

I think the market for an exclusive (actual M car) coupe is wider and represents a group with much more disposable income than that of a 9 year old SUV (sorry- SAV). No discernible portion of the market buys an old SUV to sit in the garage on rainy days or hit the track on the weekends. The M3 was a car designed for a more exclusive type of service than the daily driver X5- no mater the motor. I think we're seeing that exclusivity persist in the used market.
