[QUOTE="nerraw, post: 568945, member: 1594"] Actually... the folks who can buy a 520d probably worked and invested really hard to be able to afford one, and they got where they are now by being smart. They can afford a 333k car, but they will need to "stick with the budget" and get a good deal because they aren't gazillionaires. So they'd put in that same smartness and wait a couple of months so that when they finally sell the car they wouldn't lose as much in depreciation. Now, if someone was, for example, buying a brand new M5... he'd probably be so rich that the "20% extra depreciation" is totally inconsequential to his pocket anyway, and he'd be someone who will "want it now" and buy a 2011 car in December, year of make be damned :) [/QUOTE]
