Ok, what gives???!!!:feels-hot

I have ad's all over the net and the local paper, but am getting no responce whatsoever! Am I not priced correctly? Here's the "Kelly's Blue Book" --> on it. Could it be "too clean"? Too many miles? What am I doing wrong here???


Here's my AutoTrader.com ad. --> I have ad's running with all the other car places too. Yahoo, roadfly, all the bmw boards, etc...

:helpme Any feedback on how to improve my chances of selling this thing would be greatly appreciated!

too gay

that is one hot ride:thumbsup

Just be patiant and stay firm. It takes time.

priced too high

Yeah a bit high I think if you want a quick sale.. if you want to stand firm you'll likely have a bit of a wait.

I'm sorry, but your price is wayyyy too high. The price of a car drops significantly the most the first year. Once you drive it out of the lot, consider 1K off that day alone. Retail Value3 $27,505... that's the msrp price I assum, what's the dealers price? I think you need to drop a few more K just so it gains a little more interest. :2 cents:

ida been interested in it for AZ if the timing was right

Nobody buys used cars when you can get 0% financing and $5,000 rebates. You should trade it in for something else if you want to get rid of it.

The private party value is about $24,500....that should be where you start.
If you read the fine print on the retail value you'll see why its more and why you can't offer the things included in that.

Also, Kelly Blue Book isn't always accurate for your area, check some of the other books out there like the yellow NADA book and the black book.

On another note, people want to be able to say the blue book on a car is X and I only paid Y....so you probably won't even get the $24,500 for it.

I'm Lenny2 and I approved this message

I realize the deprecation is large in the first few years... but I think you misunderstood the kellys-blue-book... if you look at the details, that's the dealer price on a 4 year old car with 45k miles. My car's original MSRP was over $50,000.

I'm priced exactly $1000 under retail.

Still think that's too high? The car is absolutely flawless.:helpme

Thanks for the input Lenny. I see your point.:(

I do not fit in them :(

damn that is such a hot car. Why do you want to get rid of it

nice car

Price is a little high for a 2000 manual, it's a nice car

If I were you, i would look at other similar BMW M's being sold in your area and compare the prices. Try to make it within the same price range, or try to make it the lowest and you'll get the most responces then

I actually prefer sports cars to be manuals. Manuals are way fun

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh

I buy car..paypal ok?

lower the price

I used to sell cars for a living. If you try and trade that car in you will be offered around 18K to 19K

The market is soft for this vehichle. You will get around 24k for that car max.

Take a look at www.NADA.com this is the REAL blue book..Not Kelly.. Kelly is made for dealers advatage.. its to fool the consumer



North American Automobile Dealers association is what the REAL car dealers use.

I used to sell cars too and I agree, good advice! :thumbsup

:thumbsup :thumbsup

Make sure you watch ebay as well as the market in your area. The Blue Book actually can almost be worthless in some cases.

16k on ebay

Good luck with the sales!:winkwink:

It's a sweet looking car. I'm sure with the right price you will have no trouble selling it.

good luck :) nice car.
