    Did I make a good deal?

    I just bought a 325i 2006 automatic with only 24300 miles on it. I paid 15000 for it. It is loaded with a sport package and hardly used from the previous owner. Every service has been done in the BMW dealership and the car had only one owner. The only cosmetic wear is the driver's side handle from inside. Did I make a good deal?

    Carfax is super clean. It did belong to a very wealthy old lady who was moving to Mexico. She had just posted it in the local newspaper. It was an one day decision and so far I am very glad I made it.

    Hope it works out. It sounds suspicious to me, but deals like that do happen. Congrats.

    There's no way to say whether it is a good deal or not without knowing virtually everything about your car. I bet even you don't know much about it yet. Taking this into account, how do you expect people on the Net to know anything about it?

    The only way to tell whether you got a good deal or not is to drive the car for a certain period of time and see how it holds up. I surely wish you the best of luck and I hope your car will turn out fine.

    Everything is legit, that I am not worried. The lady is local and I did call the dealership where she took the car and after he asked me for part of the VinNumber he did confirm that services were done there (regular maintenance). True I dont know anything about BMWs but the person from the BMW dealership told me that all I had to do is change oil by the beginning of August and I am good to go for another 15000 miles. Hopefully it will turn out to be a good deal, time will tell. So far it rides beautifully. The only thing I replaced, I put a good set of high performance tires as the existing ones were very noisy and it was bothering me. Now everything is so smooth, it doesnt even feel I am riding it.

    How does this car handle snow as you are from NYC and have the same car? It snows quite a lot here in Cleveland

    I got snow wheels and drive to ski resorts during snow storms without any issues. All seasons might be ok if u stay around town. Drive on summers and you'll end up in a ditch.
