They are comfy boats and great highway cruisers. Ultimately, I decided to go with the 4 series GC for something a little newer and sportier.

Yeah that seems to be the consensus that I hear on that platform: they're pretty solid. I'm going from a 535i xDrive weighing in at a whopping 4200lbs, it'll be more of a weekend car I take out for date nights and things of the like, not necessarily for back roads and stuff but I'm sure they handle just fine.
Depreciation is a blessing because I'm 21 and it looks like I'll easily be able to afford even a 4-5 year old model with low mileage easily 😅
