Good deal or...? 2011 E90 M3

[cmb5286]

Toying with the idea of selling my Golf R and scooping up a local E90 M3. I've had the Golf since November so it only has ~8k miles on it. Really the only reason I'm contemplating it is because the car is local to me. Still waiting on the Carfax but it looks clean.

2011.5 E90 M3
~54k miles
Asking $39.5k

Jerez Black/Fox Red
Convenience Package
Premium Package 2
Tech Package
Carbon leather
Heated seats (no cold weather pack)
Moonroof

What do you guys think is the going rate for this car?

Thanks for the help.

I think that's way too much. Should be around $35 with that mileage IMHO

Yeah it seemed a little high to me as well.

Ran the numbers through Edmunds, NADA, and KBB. I think Edmunds was lowest around ~$32k and KBB was highest around $35.5k.

Pretty light on features, I wouldn't pay over 35k including ttl.

Make sure it has good service history.

I also wouldn't buy a BMW without a thorough PPI done by a very good BMW independent shop or an amazingly rated BMW service center.

6MT or DCT? Manual E90s are harder to come by and thus command a premium. I think that price would be fair if the car had the ZCP package and 6MT...it's probably just a little high at $39.5k

Yes I was planning on it.

Guess I forgot that. 6MT.
