Someone buy this... 2008 E92 M3 - 8990 miles only.

Saw this posted on facebook, holy shit.
Someone buy this. If I lived in USA this would have been a no-brainer.
$40k is not bad considering this S65 isn't even really "broken-in" yet.

Nice low miles car, but still priced a bit high IMO

[Dlpfcb]

Priced high? It only has 9k miles. Your basically saving 35k off of new. I never understand saying it’s too high priced because it’s 9 years old. At the end of the day your basically getting a brand new car for half off.

As a comparison point, my Dad picked up an '08 with 15k miles on it for $34k. 6 speed, silverstone over silverstone, carbon roof. Seller was asking $37k.

Thought he got a steal on it, though.

[Bartledoo]

Not that good a deal. Got my 2011 E90 6mt stripper with 13k miles in Aug 2015 in D.C. for 41k from a BMW stealership.

Hey it has the same colour exterior and interior as my car

[Flying Ace]

Pricing is just fine. It's roughly how much I paid for my 8200 mile E90 M3....Back in 2010

[Spun Crankhub]

The mileage is great, but many plastic and rubber pieces are 9 years old. I would also struggle with paying $40 for a pre-lci car.

[TomHudson]

Wow, somebody paid big bucks for an M3 to look at?
Still not a bad deal...wonder if the rod bearings were done, lol.

Unless he parked it in the woods under a tree rubber pieces are fine. That's a steal.

Depends on when and how much he got in it for.

As I said above, back in 2010, I paid $45 for the same mileage 2008 sedan. If it was my experience, then he ate 5k for depreciation for looking at it for 7 years, not bad at all.

My car has 64k miles on it now and has depreciated to $27k or so.

You're still getting a 9-year-old car, regardless of the mileage.

Yes, this.

The tires are the most obvious (and most expensive) pieces of rubber and would be about ten years old at this point. Assuming they haven't been replaced with 9k miles on them, so that would be the first expense.

The other plastic/rubber pieces might technically be 'fine', but they're still ten years older than all the parts on a new(er) car.

Here's a '13 with 4k miles for $46k. I'd take this all day long over an '08 for $40k.

tires yes, if you wanted to do some track time etc but other rubbers/hoses etc should be fine this isn't a car built in the 60's. My 08 has sat in a garage for 5 years and only put almost 4k miles on it, but the tires are stamped from 2009 and guees what no dry rot, no flat spots nothing abnormal. I'm not saying I would go and take it to the track with those tires but storage purposes and occasional drive its fine. Its all where and how the car was stored believe me.

[Ab28]

It's all depreciation from here on out if you drive it.

Unless you're really itching for a like new E92, I would just buy a cream puff with ~40k miles, drive it for a few years, and then get most of the money back.

I'm also more a fan of cars that are driven and maintained than ones that sit around.

+1, I wouldn't track the tires but for daily drive... 10 years on a tire that shows no dry rot and properly care for in a climate controlled environment are absolutely fine. Might not do 150mph in them but for the occasional drive around the city no issues there.

[Raek]

Not bad. I paid 45k for my '08 with 9600 miles.
