Fleet Size and Availability
There are 47 Citation M2 & Gen2 for sale (16 off-market), 12.0% of fleet—the highest share among Citation light jets. Supply has expanded since summer, giving buyers broader choice.
Market Listings
Ask prices run $2,400,000–$6,800,000 with 69 average Days on Market—a sharp improvement from mid-year as sellers price to clear by year-end. Citation M2 Gen2 and late-build M2s command meaningful premiums.
Sales Activity
28 sales (4 off-market) were recorded in the last six months at $3,000,000 – ~$6,000,000, averaging 179 Days on Market. Despite growing inventory, absorption remains solid given the segment’s depth of demand.
Key Takeaways
• Inventory growth meets steady sales—balanced but competitive conditions.
• Clear bifurcation: legacy Citation M2s face more price competition, while Citation M2 Gen2s retain pricing power.
• Off-market accounts for a meaningful minority of trades, often for top-spec aircraft.
• Refreshed paint/interior, connectivity, and programs compress Days on Market materially.
• Buyers enjoy selection; sellers still achieve firm outcomes with market-aligned asks.
Key Insight
The Citation M2/Gen2 remains the liquidity leader in entry light jets: more listings haven’t weakened pricing for well-spec’d aircraft, but sharper pricing strategy is essential for older examples.
