I was considering a new 328d and decided to see what I could get for the same money going CPO. Looking for a commuter car for my 3 hour daily commute.

Let me know what you guys think of this one

535i
CPO Lease Return
35k miles (most likely hwy)
1 owner
Steptronic
MSport
Driver
Cold Weather
Tech

Dealer has it listed for 43k. What would be considered a great deal on this car?
Anything I should know about 535i in general that I should look out for?

Thanks in advance

If it helps I paid just under $33K for a CPO 2012 535i w/~45K miles 4 weeks ago. It has Comfort Access, a Tech package (I don't remember which) and something else. No MSport or cold weather.

About a month ago, I got a CPO 2012 535I xdrive with 22k miles. M sport, comfort access, paddle shifter, etc for 44k. This seems to be similar if not just as good of a deal. Id say try to get another 1k off.

Should be $35-38k. They're ripping you off.

This 2012 550xi is only $43k.

From my research a month back, you can easily get 35-38k on a 535i xdrive with Msport on a non bmw dealer and non CPO. I think for a CPO with under 35k miles, you are looking at between 40-43k depending on the condition.

Here is my thought on thatthat 550 you linked. it looks like a good deal but it has 48k miles on it. very soon enough your new car warranty will be out and be on extended warranty.

1. CPO warranty isn't worth $5k. If you pay $44k for a 2011 535, then you are paying too much. BMW of Fairfax will sell you a nicely optioned CPO 535xi for less than $38k last year. This year, it would be even cheaper.

2. I linked that 550 as reference. Sure, it has more miles but it's a year newer and it is the top model with nearly every options checked. So it is a much better deal than a 2011 535xi for $43k.

If you paid too much, don't try to justify things and make other people fall for the same trap.

Excuse me... First off, you failed to read the entire thread in detail. I dont see where anybody referenced the 2011 model aside from you...

Second, I am NOT steering him in any direction unlike you. I have simply gave my experience. If I paid to much, then that is my problem but Im pretty happy with the condition of my car and was willing to pay a bit extra

CPO is very subject to the buyer. I personally think that a CPO BMW is well worth the extra. to your point, $5k is overpriced. CPO should only be $3k as that is what the dealer mark up for additional 2yrs and up to 100k Miles.

I think 40K is fair.
