very true...
Cars direct is selling new 09 LE for 18000 including destinantion in LA area.
With some negotiations I think one can pickup new 09 for 17K
 
So 15.5 is way TOO high

As Robbie said, books don't buy cars.
 
I always look at what the cars are doing at the auction when I give a value.
I could care less what KBB or Edmunds says.
 
I think $14,000 is probably best case, I could see it bringing a little less than that.

What's an A/C worth? by oldfarmer50

Occasionally, when browsing the want ads I'll see a car listed with "A/C not working, may need a charge". You have to assume that the A/C needs replacement not a charge.
 
How much would this devalue a car in the north?

BMW 525iT by stickguy

Might not be the brightest idea I ever had, but I am tempted.
 
What would be a reasonable price for:
 
2000 BMW 525iT (wagon). 74,000 miles. AT.
 
Silver, grey leather. All loaded up, including a heated steering wheel, premium package, roof, etc.
 
Clean, 1 owner, service records. Local trade to a Lexus dealer. No htis/runs/errors. Fresh tires.
 
Assuming it needs nothing, what would be a fair price to pa for this? It is at a used car place that is owned by the same chain that has Lexus and Toyota dealers.

I have no idea what this is worth but I like your thinking. I really like wagons. My dream car is a Mercedes wagon. However, I will likely never be able to pull the trigger on one because in order for me to afford one I would have to buy an older model and I would be terrified about looming repairs and maintenance.

Well, it's gonna be close.
I think $8,000 is the money, maybe $9,000

Actually, the W124 300TE wagons are pretty much bulletproof.
 
They were practically the lst of the real, overengineered, hewn from blocks of granite Mercedes.

Thank you. I'm going to give Carmax a shot and may try private party. If I pull the trigger and get lowballed i'll just finance the entire amount and sell the truck at my leisure.

Since you got sidetracked lavishing praise on a Benz!
