same, BMW's drop their value in half once their driven off the lot. They go for super cheap on the used market because they have lots of problems and service/maintenance is much more expensive than a domestic brand. It's always poorfags trying to look rich when they drive BMW's. My 2003 Toyota Corolla is worth more on the resale market than an equivalent 2003 BMW 3 series easily.

Do people actually think people are buying BMWs for the status? This has not been my experience with people shopping around for cars. I think there is an overwhelming belief that the cars are indeed superior for "le german engineering."

Actually, the back seats are nigh unusable for people to ride in on a regular basis. I'm considering doing Uber for a day for charity, and have quickly discovered that it kinda sucks to ride in the back. On the flip side, it's basically a sports equivalent of an A8, so the front is baller as fuck.
