Depreciation Insight for the 2009 BMW M5
When you look at BMW M5 depreciation, the 2009 model bucks the trend seen in many late‑2000s luxury cars. Generally, a high‑performance vehicle with a strong brand loyalty profile can retain its value better than a mainstream sedan.
- Typically, a fully loaded 2009 BMW M5 would lose about 12‑18 % of its value in the first year if the car is new.
- From year three to five, the vehicle usually depreciates around 7‑10 % each year, assuming no major mechanical issues.
- By year ten, a clean, low‑mileage 2009 M5 can retain anywhere from 30‑40 % of its original MSRP, which compares favorably against many other luxury sedans that drop below 25 % by that time.
These percentages align with reported data from resale platforms and highlight the 2009 M5’s desirability among enthusiasts and collectors. While the depreciation curve is steeper for models with excessive mileage (>100,000 mi), a well‑maintained, factory‑service‑trace vehicle will often close only a 15‑22 % gap at 5 years relative to its launch price.
