May have found my M3
Hey guys, I was just about to order a 2012 M3 when I found a 2011 with the exact color / package that I want a few states away. The dealer in question isn't willing to set up a dealer trade, but they said are willing to sell me the car and ship it. The only problem with this is my current 335, I already had a trade-in deal in place with my current dealer and will now have to find another way to get rid of my car in a relatively short period of time. I would do carmax, but the closest one is about 90 miles away.
Any suggestions? Or do you guys think I should just hold off and order the 2012? |

Don't sell your car to CARMAX. You'll get better value trading it in at a dealer, or do what I did and sell it private party.
Carmax offered me $4k less than what I was able to sell it for private party. BMW dealership did $2k more than Carmax. |

One thing I was wondering though in case I can't make the trip - do you guys think it would be feasible to have the M3 shipped to me and then ship my car back to them in turn for the trade? I was just trying to think outside the box a little... |

Thats possible but you will have to pay for shipping on both cars. I would just get all financial details done over the phone and go to the dealer just to sign paperwork and pick up the car. This way there are no surprises.
I would def. do the trek. I did 1500 miles from Dallas to Los Angeles and it was a great experience. Take a friend with you it makes for more of an exciting drive lol. |
