2008 M3 E93 55k Miles, did i get a good deal?

xcsgenius · 02-09-2015, 01:51 PM

Hi there guys, first time posting here. I recently purchased a 2008 M3 Convertible with 55k miles for $33000 out the door. I purchased it from a BMW dealer and it's a 1 owner with 22 service records.
It has all the options that i wanted including DCT, Navi, PDC. Please tell me your opinion if I got ripped off or no. Thank you

Unfortunately, I think you overpaid for it. Keep in mind that used M3 verts are cheaper than coupe and sedan.

Anyhow, enjoy your new beast. What color is it btw?

xcsgenius · 02-09-2015, 02:05 PM

It is Sparkling Graphite with Fox Red Interior. The car was 30000 but with the dealer fees taxes and plates i got to $33000. I wanted a vert so i was only looking for them when researching. Thanks

If you can afford it and it has the options you wanted stop worrying about the price. Just enjoy the ride!

Check General Section. There is 7 pages thread about value of e93 and the reason why it is cheaper.

I think your about right on the money for what you paid maybe 1-2k less I would consider too cheap.

xcsgenius · 02-09-2015, 07:03 PM

Thank you for the replies. I can't hardly wait for it to get here. I am shipping it so i won't receive it until next week. I never driven a car like this before.

Wait until you decide to supercharge it..then you will literally say that I have never driven a car like this before

BTW, why did you decide to go with e93? Do you live in the south?

Actually I live in Michigan. I guess I am attracted to the hard top. It's just a preference as i don't really push cars to the limit.

I think you price is inline. I bought my 2008 e93 in November with 17,xxx miles for $40,000.

Jonnykin · 03-10-2015, 08:37 PM

I rink you did good. clean history. well serviced. nice color.

Enjoy the ride!

M3GarageKing · 03-11-2015, 06:10 PM

I check all over craigslist and auto trader in CA, it is a good price.

I have a 2008 e93- have fun with it!

They WERE worth more when they were new. Used M convertibles of every generation tend to be worth less as they are less desirable for enthusiasts.

OP, I think you did fine. $30k from a dealer is a totally fair price. Enjoy the new ride!

I think you got a pretty good deal. Enjoy!

You did good with the price. Naysayers are just convertible- or 08-haters. It's a great car, in any form. You won't be disappointed. Congratulations!
