Guys, this is a real good price for a car like mine - I've checked dealer auction prices and they go for about 23-24k at those - that's before any fees and taxes, so at the lot this is a 26-29k asking price car. Can someone give me some tips on how to better market the car, please?
So far, I have listed it on craigslist a few times and I have it up for sale in a couple of forums. I don't want to pay the ridiculous eBay fees, plus I'm told eBay Motors isn't even that effective. But I really do want to sell it and upgrade to a 535 already - can you guys help me out with some advice on how to get this done better?
Also, and this is only for this forum members, I'm asking 24,500 now

Seriously, V's ride is very nice (saw it all day at the June 6th meet) and it is priced well.

Someone buy V's ride so he can take the 535 on the next meet and keep up (sort of) with the 550s and M5s.

But yes, that's something I've been sort of pondering over - possibly just trading my car in and leasing a new one. I owe about what the car is worth right now, so its a good time too...

UPDATE:
The car is still for sale. Added a few mods though AND LOWERED THE PRICE - $23,500
Here's the pic of the headlight mod (tinted eyebrows and eurostickers):
Completely reversible mod, btw.
Here are a few more recent pics of the car:
Car is being sold with all the mods, EXCEPT: Sprintbooster, trunk finisher. Everything else is yours, if you want it. Have an extra couple of RFT tires too (used, but in usable condition).

My Ride: 2011 535I X-Drive - Space Grey / Black Dakota / M-Sport / Sport Auto Transmission with Paddles / Premium I / Premium II / Cold Weather
Gone: 2010 535I - Alpine White / Black / Sport, Premium & Cold Weather Packages / Anthracite liner / Sport Auto with Paddle Shifters / Navigation / Satellite, HD & I-pod
Gone: 2006 530XI - Monaco Blue / Creme Leather
Craig's List - crazy idea, but try it!
Your price is excellent.
I had a buyer within 48 hours of posting my 2006 530XI for sale on Craig's List!
Transferred title today. My car was higher mileage (65,---) but with BMW Certification and BMW Maintenance to 100K. Car was in excellent condition (Monaco Blue / Creme), but less options than yours - Premium, Cold Weather, Comfort Access, Satellite, (clear bra on front end and two sets of BMW mats). Sold for 10% above your asking price.
Now if the dealer could only locate me a suitable 2010 535I M-Sport or Sport... short of ordering and waiting!

My money is on Vlad getting a 335i Coupe. After having a blast in the 335xi loaner, I can understand someone wanting a 335 as the car is so much fun to drive. It just lacks the room, comfort and stability that I like -- this is the fact that I am much closer to my 40s than my 20s speaking.

Yes, Vlad's 530 is in great condition and runs well.
