At least, that is what I do. Shopping these now and can get them in the $60K range (for a 2010 model)
No. In Texas you do not have to pay sales tax again on the valued trade in price. (in my case $81,000.00) This is if you PURCHASED the vehicle originally. Also people looking to buy a $100K+ Car frankly are not going to look for a used car. They are going to want new. BMW //M cars always have terrible resale value
