CPO 2022 M340I vs trying to lease a 2023 m340i (current 13 months in x5 lease about to be totalled by insurance)

Hey all,

I have some questions and not sure if this is the right section, kind of a hybrid issue. apologies in advance.

My current lease on an X5 is actually being totaled out by the insurance company within the next 10 days or so. I am in an insurance covered rental car. I basically won’t have a car in the the next few weeks(although i mostly work remote and can survive a bit longer because my fiance has a vehicle and is full time remote)

I am in south Florida where I was under the impression is a horrible car market in general… Either way, I was looking at potentially buying (financing a bit of it) a 2022 m340i with 22k miles. not clear how important “CPO” is if it still has time in the manufacturers warranty though. link below:

financing a car is a bit out of my element since I have ALWAYS leased but not sure If it is time for a change. Does it make sense to look for deals on a 2023 M340I and lease it instead? I assume that trying to order/wait for a 2024 m340i would be too far out. I can borrow my fiance’s car when I go into office a few days a week but I can tell she is getting annoyed when I borrow it now because I hate the terrible hyundai rental car I have.

I am really asking for the expert opinions here on what you guys would do if you were in my situation and you really wanted a 2022+ m340i while also going to be without a car somewhat soon. Also, if there are any deals that make sense and if my financing idea makes no sense compared to just leasing again (will probably put 50+ percent money down on the finance but open to ideas )
800+ credit score currently if that matters

thanks!

Never, ever, ever buy from Off-Lease Only. There are so many horror stories about them. Run from this car.

I have a pretty base 2023 M340ix that is in transit and another one that is in production with a few more options. It just depends on what you want in the car.

i will PM you

Many of their cars have been in accidents. Although this one say it has not, I would be very suspicious. I don’t know how they can sell the car as CPO. I doubt it is BMW CPO.

My point exactly. That’s why I said stay away.

Just randomly pulled up a Acura Integra with 2900 miles, and a 8 month mileage gap…yup that car was wrecked.

this for that beamer. anything seem strange? I am likely going to lease at this point, just waiting on the A ok from insurance but still wonder if you guys see anything weird about below. somehow the car was only leased for 1 year 6 months when BMW doesn’t even offer that as a lease term. I assume the car got flooded or ruined somehow and they turned it in for a new lease/new year model but not sure.

Where does it say it’s wrecked?

It doesnt, the gap and the lack of mileage on a car that someone would drive daily is very sus

Wondering how this aged, now that Off-Lease Only has ceased operations.

I did not buy a car from them. I think the car was sold last week based on a car gurus notification I received…
