I went through the same thing as you. Forum members tried to help me out but I still haven't decided. Maybe it'll help you... http://f10.m5post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1349824 |

Just read through it. Looks like M5 probably makes the most sense for me.

Impressive garage at 25! What's your favorite? Notice you flip through cars pretty often.

35 M6GC here. Bought my E90 M3 at 28. All preowned.
Looking at the responses, I tend to be under the average age for the M5/6 and over the average age for the M3. I suppose people making jumps within the M range has an intermediate car of another brand they go to before going to the M5/6

Mid-20's currently as I'm looking to upgrade to my first M by next year.
Like others has stated, this is an interesting thread. And from my perspective (being on the younger side) is that its all about what lifestyle you have. I've gone to college and got my degree in Computer Information Science and my job pays well so for me, I know I can afford it. I want to get one before I settle down and have kids. At that point, my priorities might change. |

Speaking of...my first kid was born 3 days ago. This is on another level man. It's like going from a Civic to an M3. Don't think I have ever been this sleep deprived in my life, even having gone through medical school & residency. Up until his birth I was dreaming about driving my car to/from work, would just drive around aimlessly, and looking upgrading to M5s & M6GC. Now, other than reading these forums as an escape, I'm either passed out or changing wrecked diapers of epic proportions.

bruh! Firstly, congrats. Secondly, 3 days ago? How are you possibly on the internet surfing? Finally - You're right. I had my first kid 2 years ago. For a month, I didn't even drive my car as I was home with my wife. To be honest, it all started when I got my M3 10 years ago, well before I even got married. Once I started making more money to buy my toys, I've gotten busier. I can count on 1 hand the number of times I've gone out by myself and just drove my car for the fun of driving. And that's just my car. Forget Xbox! I bought the XboxOne, and turned it on less than 5 times over the last 2 years. Fast forward to today. Last week I just purchased a M6 GC. My wife is due with our 2nd kid in 25 days. I don't anticipate driving my car in any significant way until June 2018 at this rate! And btw, anyone want to buy my Xbox?

The forums app is my sanity. I go back to work next week. This little guy is apparently calm/collected from what my family is all telling me, but I'm still on the struggle-bus! Need to hit a day/night routine asap so I can go back to having ambition/life goals rather than living in perpetual fear of the next full diaper.

That's kind of what my girlfriend is trying to get me to get all this car stuff out of my system before kids but I keep telling her that isn't happening (I think). That being said, I did put away my coilovers and performance upgrade plan to get an engagement ring recently so life is starting to change. |

Life is too short
46 y/o. Started with new 2001 330I, upgraded to new 2007 335I (still daily driver), then 2013 M5. All great cars. Life is too short to drink bad wine and drive boring cars. You can't take the money with you.

I'm with you about having money work for you. I got into real estate and now money is like a game. The more money you have, the higher the score. It's hard to be patient and I can go pick up a CPO M5 right now, but like you said, real estate is just too juicy. I can wait until the F90 drops as I planned my budget for it already. As far as the getting along part... There's a ton of jackasses on here, depending on which perspective you're looking at. You levering up via real estate or throw you money into the markets?
