I'd get it instead if the 335i E92 wasn't such a sexy piece of ass.
Your parents sound very fiscally responsible. Getting older and keeping cars for 10 years doesn't mean they should throw away 60k each and treat themselves now. I may be 40 years away from retirement, but I figure if anything my consumption would taper off, not accelerate as I near retirement age. Hopefully you didn't use the word cheap in a bad context.
