My budgeting is done in dollars not percent. So yeah I can and will look at the dollar amount and nothing else for a depreciating asset

Appreciating investments is the opposite, percentage is king.

You have been taken advantage of, $23k is very close to what I’ve seen over 4 years and 40k miles on my M3s. Brush up on your negotiation skills of purchase price and trade-in.
