Is it worth selling my 2018 C43 AMG with 53k miles for $30k to buy a 2017 M4 Comp with 70k miles for $38k? Open to thoughts.

F82 m4 is a pretty amazing car and will more than likely have a higher price floor than the baby amg. That said, the M markets started to be as pretentious as the Porsche market so spec is key, and maintenance history is the most critical. You and I both know it’s been used well.. cost might be higher for insurance/gas but I’ve heard good things reliability wise, so it may be a better long term repair play than the 43

If you are at all gear head, yes. The //M engine is much more supported and capable than the Merc.

If you don't plan to mod, both are good, fun cars.

Yes. The M4 comp is a much nicer platform. Probably hold value better than the C43 as well.

I admit I’m a little out of loop on European sports sedans but that sounds like a terrible effing deal

Probably not a great idea but it's also only an $8K difference. So why not if you want to. IDK about trading a car with 50K miles for 70k though

An M4 comp for $38k sounds like a killer deal I can’t believe you can get them for so cheap. I mean it’s almost a decade old and 70k mi but those cars are so dang good and good looking. That’s my favorite gen. Before the interior lost all its buttons and became frustrating too. Although that might be a year before they added CarPlay

Right?! I’m a fan of them
