looking for a dealership thats good to trade with just got offered 12 grand for a 98m3 that retailed for just under 50grand.

 

Sell it you self, don't be in a rush. It took four months to sell my 94' 300zx and got 9500.00 for it. Little less of than a third of original value but had to find someone who appriciated the car.

 

Did you take it to a BMW dealer or Nissan dealer?

i took it to a nissan dealer ans tried to trade it in on a 2004 track model

 

If you're going the trade-in route, then it may be best to have a BMW dealer buy your M3. The BWM dealer should give you a higher resale value because they're more familiar w/ your car.

yeh im trying to sell the car on ebay now then go back and buy a track model. I found a 03 track just like i want for 32 out the door do you guys think that is a god buy

 

That is a good buy. Too good? Check the Odometer. How many miles does it have?

 

400 miles still seems a lil redicolous though when i can get a track for 35 or 36 for an 04

 

I don't know if by ridiculous you mean high or low. I bet those are 400 hard miles, though.

 

well the car has never been titled i just dont know hard its been test driven. I mean for 4 grand difference i could have a new track model with no miles. so 32 doesnt seem like that great of a price to me

 

If it has never been titled, that means it has been test-driven and salesman-driven the whole time.

It depends on your intentions. If you expect to keep the car long-term, don't get it. If you expect to sell it before the drivetrain warranty runs out, you're probably OK.

It all depends on what you can afford and what you're willing to accept. Follow your gut.
