Hi guys, im looking at a pretty nice 2005 330xi with 6 speed manual, the owner asking $7500 minimum, it has 101600 miles with new brakes, tires, front axles, no leaks anywhere, pretty clean inside and out.
My question is: is this a good price??

Check Kelly Blue Book and other similar sites. Call your bank or credit union to see the loan values. Check Auto Trader and similar. BUT, have the car undergo a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI) performed by an independent (indie) BMW shop before making the final decision.

Yes.
But +1 on the PPI.

Don't focus too much on price. Focus on finding a great car. They are worth spending more on.

+1. There is no such thing as a "cheap BMW."
