Well I did it....I have listed my car for sale. What a weird/bad feeling...

Some may remember my "dilemma" when my company decided to stop paying me mileage for driving my personal car...this 535i...and provide me a company car instead. Well...it has happened. And as I figured it would...It's bothering me a LOT to now have both my 911 and the 535i sitting in the garage "for pleasure use only". So I am putting the 535i up for sale. It's a 6-speed, so I'm sure the buying market is narrowed significantly, but for someone looking for a 6-speed....it's definitely the car.

Anyway....it's in the Classified's section on here. Here is a link: '08 535i.

But what if you crashed the company car by accident the 1st day. You'd need a ride to get to work. Right?

Instead of driving a "free" car...for 100 miles/ 5 days a week?? That makes no sense at all. On the company car...I pay for no gas, no maintenance, no insurance, no tag...nothing...I even get it washed for free. No question it's not a BMW...but it's completely free. Besides, I wasn't given a choice NOT to take this car...I have it, like it or not. If I don't drive it, they're not gonna let me use the "fleet credit card" to put gas in my BMW...I asked that already.

Thanks for the idea though...please keep those coming!

Don't temp me......trust me...I only need about 0.001 inches of push to keep my car. My wife has someone interested...and I'm scared to death they're gonna buy it ...that would really suck. Wait......oh yeah...it's for sale...

Oh well, just a thought. Just make sure you sell to someone who knows and appreciate BMWs.
