I have an 2011 Audi A4 with 134000 miles, got offered 8100 which is a very good price given condition and miles, should I sell and maybe get a used bmw e46 for like 6k/ a clk320 from 2005 for 7k? I only need a car for the next 1 year. Or just keep the Audi and sell for 5/6k next year?

If your car is reliable just keep it. Other ones could cause you unknown trouble over the course of a year

I agree

Easy math here, right? If you assume the depreciation will be the same between your current car and the future car over the next year - then you’re selling for 8100, buying another car for $6k (not including tax/registration fees), so let’s call it $6500.

That means you have $1600 in potential profit, and you’re betting that the repairs on a 10 year old German car with unknown service history will be less than $1600 over the next year.

I’d stick with what you know if you’ve maintained the A4 well. You’re looking at this as though you’re going to pocket some money, and that just seems unlikely to me.

Is the E46 and M3? If not keep the Audi

I’d keep rocking the Audi if it’s holding up. Those 2.0Ts in those cars are rock solid if kept up maintenance wise
