Why not get a 2015-2017 F80 M3 with 10-25k miles for 50-60k, do bootmod3 stage 1 for 80 extra hp, and call it a day? Will even keep up with a G80 M3 on a highway.

Put snow tires on the M3 and you'll be fine.
M3 will depreciate less.
Drive the M3 for a year, wait for a 340i to drop 25% in year 1. Then pick one up used.

These 3 series have gotten so expensive you cannot buy one new, or take a 50% hit in 3 years. So $60k new, $34k depreciation and taxes, divided by 36 months = $850 a month not including tax. Lots of cash for a 3 series!
