If i was to sell the car, what do you think is the optimal time to list it?

There's never a shortage of e9x cars for sale in the spring/summer so I'm guessing winter time then? Does that make sense?
I don't believe it matters, to me it's just a timing issue of serious buyers versus tire kickers. When I sold my last M3 I expected 2 months of time, it sold in 2 weeks and to the first person who came and looked at it. He was a serious buyer though. I have a tendency to go overboard when selling something though, I had the complete service from day 1 listed in chronological order (service receipts photocopied so he could take them to review, originals I kept until he bought the car), the spreadsheet from Drivvo printed as well as on a USB stick, the car was detailed, ceramic coated with a PPI pre done, all rod bearing parts and maintenance items you would do when doing a rod bearing job we're in the trunk ready to go, by this time I had stopped driving the car basically solely under the pretense to sell it. The guy who bought said he appreciated all the answers before asking the questions. He knew right away the car was well looked after and he was an enthusiast with an E46 M3 already in his driveway amongst other cars. He didn't haggle and he bought my HRE rims which in hindsight I regret selling now. Anything related to the car he bought. It was an awesome experience for selling and buying, so the season doesn't matter as much as having the car listed and waiting for the serious buyer.
