and if you haven't done it yet, check the CarFax. I posted this yesterday after trying it - individual CarFax's for $4.98 here: https://www.autovhr.com/deal/

It works!

[Oli77]

Thank you all!

Bit of a sad face here as I am getting a vibe that this car should be valued at or under $10K!!!

[pedro2u]

where does that come from? KBB with 55K miles and just the M Package alone shows $11.1K to $12.8K when I run it.... https://www.kbb.com/bmw/3-series/201...|2955689|false

[pedro2u]

and NADA clean retail of $13,350...... https://www.nadaguides.com/Cars/2010...2D-328i/Values

There was a local, similar car for sale recently. The asking price was $10k but it had close to 100k miles. And it didn't look very sharp.

Thank you Pete for the links and making me realize that I was using the private seller price!!!
Thanks Fredo, I hope it's a sharp and clean car....

Next up, fing out how much they will pay for the audi.... Going there on Friday.

Any updates ?

[Oli77]

Thanks for asking Fredo. Yes.

The car is on its way and should be here next week. In the meantime I went to the local Audi dealer to get an idea on value for my A6, they said trade in value would be a whopping $12K. I test drove a Ford Focus RS and boy, that was fun, Recaro seats, pops and crackle in the back, 4 wheel drive... nice little thing. went on a joy right with it gave them the keys back.

Then I went to Carmax and they said $14.5K for the Audi.

I am hesitating going through the process of selling the Audi through the Audi Forum I am a member on. Audi world has not sold that car in the past year. Basically, I learned that no one drives the 2L T. And I doubt people would buy it. I could do that and put it up for sale at maybe 17K.... hesitating. Everything hinges on me falling in love (or not) with the E93 described above.

Welcome any thoughts, comments.....

Use the BC button to find out service status on the E93. Check this youtube video:
