I hear you. I think most of us struggle with the same kinds of tradeoffs when weighing options, or at least have at one time or another. I've learned over the years how to short circuit the analysis and not dwell too much on the intricacies of the decision. The first question I ask myself is "If someone offered me the M for the same money as the series car, would any of negatives even be an issue anymore?" The answer to that is always a definitive "No way!". That helps zero in on the real question - value. And that's where my "you only live once" philosophy kicks in. So there you have it. A nice tidy decision making process without letting the outside world talk me out of it.
