With a market starting price new of $54, add some options maybe $58 it was crazy to see how many used ones are asking in the low to even mid $60's.

Like I said maybe the M2 comp will change that but the flood of used M2's at the current price point would make me buy new instead of used.
If you can, yes, definitely wait for the M2 whatever with the S55 engine to come out before buying a used N55 M2.

I think the best used value, though, would still be the 2016 M235 or even a lightly used M240 with the B58 engine. The latter is incredibly close in performance to the M2. Just add the LSD with the savings. You can also add a tune, if you're into such things...

So cheap! (weird colors, though): https://www.unitedbmw.com/detail-201...-17464109.html
For $20k more, the M4 version: https://www.nalleybmw.com/used-inven...nchor-model-22
