Car Buying Question - BMW E70 X5 Diesel

tturedraider · 01-23-2025, 03:08 PM

I was curious about what Edmund’s would show and not surprisingly it’s right in the range you already know. I used a 2013 model with 80k miles and I chose every option available and these are the dealer retail value and private party value.

Do they have any explanation of their reasoning why anyone should pay at least a $6,000 premium?

Cause they overpaid at auction 3 years ago

I said that's not my issue and if they wanna make a deal, they have my contact info.

Crazy. Being that it’s a mom and pop operation it seems like they ought to just give up on selling it and make it a personal vehicle and just drive it.

Exactly. Oh well, not my loss. They can keep the X5 as a trophy.
