Looking to purchase '13 328, need input on price

Solidjake · 10-18-2017, 06:02 PM

Hey guys. There's someone selling a 2013 (9/12 build) 328i 6 speed msport 59k miles for 19.5k and I got him down to 18k (won't budge lower). He is including a set of wheels with snow tires, car has an injen exhaust and black grills.

Carfax shows 3 owners, one up to 33k, second up to 49 and current up to 59k. Car is estoril blue, looks very clean but driven in the northeast. Thoughts on the price? Thanks

Price sounds acceptable. Not too crazy about three owners.

I just did some research on Car Gurus, and the average price for a 2013 M sport was about 16k. an Injen is about 300ish if i remember correctly (Put one on my 328i 2012 sounds great with the mechanical waste gate).

Are the snow tires on the car or is he throwing them in as an extra set? (Part # available?)

I dont think the color of the kidney grills should effect the price of the car that much unless theyre made out of solid gold or something.

I wouldnt go much higher than 16K if it were me.... Unless im over looking something about the tires? (I live in Florida, dont know a whole lot about snow tires.)

where are you getting a 2013 msport w under 75k miles for 16k? no way.

bmwchue · 10-20-2017, 11:49 PM

thats a good price considering its a manual (hard to find) for 18k
in Ca a f30 328i 60k miles with m sport line automatic runs for 19-20k bone stock

Really depends on the location too. Cars here in the Bay Area is super steep.

CDJohn1223 · 10-21-2017, 01:16 PM

Sounds like a good price.

I bought my 2014 328i xdrive m sport with 49k. This summer for $23,000. It has all options except the backup camera.

Edited: I bought a 2014 not 2013

Price sounds good to me too, as one said above however the 3 owner history is a bit of a turn off but that aside sounds fair.

I will be sealing the deal on Tuesday/Wednesday with the owner. I took the car to BMW to get a PPI done but the hood cable snapped as we were all going to look under the hood... Owner will cover that and once it clears it will be mine.

I checked it out thoroughly minus under the hood and it's great. Taken care of and the history with the previous two owners is good. Thanks all, can't wait to have her.

Dude, that's really suspicious.

The hood cable snaps the very moment the buyer goes to examine the engine?

Imagine that, what are the chances?

Come on! I say no way. I smellz a rat.

The hood did pop open but the second pull didn't go through. The dealer has fixed it up and everything checks out.

Price sounds good but the fact that something like the hood cable snapping on a car that isn't all that old is kinda suspect to me too. Makes you wonder how often someone was looking under the hood.
