I bought a 1M for driving. I picked the color because it looks great (IMO).
I suspect the great majority of actual owners feel the same way.
I didn't buy it to think it could conceivably be worth a couple of more dollars if I ever want to let it go.

It's almost perverse to imagine buying this kind of car so an owner's fragile ego can be temporarily massaged by feeling superior because of ... a limited number? ... a color? You think people in Germany have spent decades of work for that?

It drives wonderfully. Near perfectly in most areas. Other people and I get to take advantage of that. End of story.
Absolutely brilliant response!
