Assuming a 4-year lease cycle, there could be some decent off-lease MY2019s out there still. | this is a good idea
in the fall i visited several VW dealers with cars on lots and a chequebook in my hand.
the only guys that really worked w me on price were the crew at Vancouver VW. They were excellent.
Drop Bryant a line and tell him what you're looking for. I don't see anything listed right now, but they all maintain a book.
I took great pleasure in informing all of the salespeople that followed up after our visits that I'd made my deal w a more receptive dealership.

You may even find it quicker than we know it.

Stock wheels back on, much happier now that I've got them refinished and spacers in place. Excited for spring driving

I swear to God that E46 is the pinnacle of BMW's stylistic design. Looks so simple, clean, and classy all at the same time.
It's been all downhill after that.

after the e46, it's when the non M cars were no longer cool. You can see a clean e30, 36, 46, 39, 34 etc in non M spec and be like "holy fuck that's a cool car" but that ended with the e90 other than a few cool specific models.

They're not just not cool, they're straight up bland. iirc Top Gear described the E90 as "14 feet of car" and didn't even bother putting it on the Cool Wall.

Again, if I didn't already know this is a real life car (and the BC plate, I guess), my first thought would have been that this is a screen grab from some recent version of Gran Turismo. Quote:

Same. I thought it was from a SIM racing or Gran Turismo game screenshot.
