A dealer not too far from me has a leftover 2019 M850i convertible with no options, about a 123 MSRP, that I can have for $93,500 plus tax, etc. I'd likely lease it, since the depreciation on these things is massive, which would put me at around $1000 a month. Which is a lot of money, but not a bad deal for a car of this caliber. I'm trying to beat them down even more, but it's unlikely.

Problem is, I already have a perfectly good car (2019 540i) which is worth so little that there's no point in trading it in (it's a lease). And the wife likes the 850i but not enough to let it come out of her car budget. So I'll be paying for it. It will be a spare toy, for nice days, weekend drives, etc.

It's a great car - I borrowed one for a weekend, and really the only thing I didn't care for was the brakes, when coming to a stop, it's a little hard to make it smooth. I grew up with convertibles, and haven't had one for several years now.

So those of you who have, or had, the 8 convertible, help me out. Is it worth it, or should I just move on and buy something more affordable?

And yes, life is short. That's kind of my motto, especially now with this virus thing going around.
