Looking for honest valuation

Exactly what I was going to do, but was lucky enough to find someone who was interested and also had a car I wanted. Traded M4 for Cayenne GTS + cash, everyone saved taxes and doc fees.

Dealers want to charge ~$800 doc fee for that type of deal. And I was never able to find a large dealership (ie. official BMW or Lexus dealership) to do this, only smaller ones who resells used cars.

[18BSMF82](contact:560004), IMO if you have the adaptive LED headlights you can easily ask for 70k and end up selling for mid to high 60's if the repairs were done right and gaps are even on all sides with everything documented.
For some reason, most Canadians skimped on the comp pack so people will pay top dollar for that.

I agree with wonton^^^
Without seeing any pics of condition and if you have IKON headlights you should be asking 69k and settle for around 64-65k with this market right now.

Good luck with sale OP

Here is the competitive Retail landscape right now of active, live and available 2018 M4 Coupes (not digging in depth to check equipment and Carfax reports). I believe this is anything advertised currently on autotrader. This search is based on a 500 km radius from a random GTA postal code. I agree with shooting high, but asking $69k might not get any traction. If you can secure a $62-64k cash offer, take it and run

To my knowledge, all F8x's decode as BASE.

Really appreciate all the input here. I think I'm leaning towards the dealer route vs private sale just purely out of convenience.

IKON and COMP packages makes a huge difference.

Even in BC where used car prices are 15-20% higher, a base 2018 costs $62-65k and never sells. An ultimate pack for $75-80k sells within days.

That's roughly 20% increase if you have comp + ikons which usually would just be an ultimate package since price diff was tiny at that point.

Hell, if all you're getting is 52k + tax, I'll fly over from BC and buy it off you for $500 more if it has ikons and comp. I miss my M4, was going to re-buy when an ultimate package comes at a good price.
We can even do that "accommodation sale" so you save taxes from them.

Unfortunately it does not have the ikon lights (no exec package). But it has the comp pack and V2 titanium exhaust.

I'd consider the 52k offer if you are serious. PM if so.
