Well they price B&O at $3500 above standard premium sound which itself is $1900 incremental pricing over regular sound. So if you are buying the system standalone, it's going to be $7000-8000. Then you have installation - probably 6-8 hours at $120 per hour. So it's going t o be $8000 and it won't add to the resale value of your car at all.

So do the TCO of owning your car for the next 3 years vs. buying a new one and owning that for 3 years. I reckon you will be better off buying a new one since the resale on these cars is very good right now because of the short supply.
