I think it has more to do with the fact that these cars still cost $6k+ unlike the older Subaru's, Honda's, etc... that someone younger could easily afford. Not that $6k+ is a ton of money but most people 20 and younger are probably making minimum wage (or close to it) and it is a lot easier to save $2k and pick up a Honda rather than a car that costs $6k+ (not to mention the gas
)

(Mainly my Mother) The excuse was its a "V8". My dad had a SL55 at the time and knew I would mod the C43. His excuse was "just dont make it faster than mine" plus I did a lot of track days so I thought the M3 would be perfect.

Thats good I'm sure you will love it more because you bought it yourself! When I bought my M3 I took care of it like no other. My neighbors would tell me "that if I kept washing it 3 times a week the paint would wash off" hahaha But enjoy it buddy and keep up with maintenance and I am sure it will last you very long.
