Deal or No Deal - preowned M3

[Digitalwok]

I know there are other threads addressing this:

http://www.m3post.com/forums/showthr...=366319&page=1

But it seems to be all over the place. My summary of it is that for a 2008 M3 coupe with all options and avg miles (10k/year) the price is about $40-45K and for the same 2009 car its around $45-50K. I found these two Ms so wondering if they are good deals. If not, at what price then?

2008 M3
- White/extended Beige
- CPO
- 32K miles
- DCT with all options
- asking $47K and trying to get them to $45Kish

2009 M3
- Blue/Silver
- no CPO
- 23K miles
- DCT with all options
- asking $54K and trying to get them down to $50Kish

So Deal or No Deal to quote Mr. Mandell?

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Hard choice.

I think for you it should come down to the following:

- which color you like better?
- you like having an extended warranty? (ie CPO)

You can always get the 09 CPO'ed later on if you purchase that one (I would prefer a warranty on the car btw)

Also the iDrive is updated in the 09 compared to the 08, but at the end of the day that shouldn't be a that big of a driver.

Miles aren't that huge difference either, both have low mileage for their age.

So pick the better color car and go with that.

The 08 at $45k is a good deal, and the 09 at $50k is a good deal. anything higher for the two I wouldnt buy.

I am looking at an IDENTICAL 09 (silver/silver DCT Fully loaded with 22k miles) for $50.5k.

I am still trying to work on the price so it may come down to under $50k.

It all depends n how much you're willing to spend also. Either way good luck!

I just got mine last week for 45.5k with 40k miles, MB, tech pkg, DCT and everything was flawless. Looked like a brand new car.

Thats some high mileage you have there.. I won't pay that much for it, unless its OTD

I won't really be driving the car alot so to me its no big deal, I usually drive my cars only around 6k a year, if that. I ride my bike most of the time so over time I guess it'll even out

Go with the color you WANT.
