Trading in

ia12 · 06-01-2020, 08:33 PM

Well after 4.5 wonderful years, I am finally trading in this beauty. I was hoping to get the new M3 but sounds like its still a bit ways out so instead getting an M5 for now. I will miss my manual transmission though - have been driving a manual for the past 10+ years so the M5 will be my first non manual car in a while!

I am hoping someone here picks her up and if you do let me know! Its a great car and I've kept her in great shape!

Well your SMB is a beautiful car!
What specs are you getting in the M5?

That is a great value, and you SMB is a very beautiful car. I had '15 YMB.

I hope you enjoy M5. It will be a different feeling for sure.

Thank you. It is a beautiful car. Now it belongs to BMW Charlottesville waiting for its next owner to love and enjoy. Like I said if anyone here picks it up let me know.

I would suggest anyone in your shoes, with a particularly desired individual color test the private party market first. Just want to throw it out there in case someone reads your thread.

I don’t think $45K would be unreasonable for your car depending on options, condition, ownership history.

I totally agree and I should have done that. This was kind of out of the blue and short notice so hence I didnt even try it that way. Oh well learning experience. Maybe next time!
