Hello. I need your guys opinion. I was looking at 530xi and 550i for a while. Today i found 06 550i 51k miles, nice options, privet seller for $23,5k . What do you think sound right? I`m kind of suspicious. Thanks for any imput.

 

welcome to the forum

550 is a monster like on par with an ///M5 I dont know what problems the 2006 have though

 

i mean, doesn't sound too cheap? Well we called em and guy answered phone and i had to call back for address(meet point). Now no answer. I hope it`s not scam.

I know 550i is the beast. And suppose to be one of the best engines in BMW.

 

I live in Russia, Moscow I payed around $53,000 for a new 05/2008 525i Sport Limited Edition and they had discount on this car off $16,000

But your prices guys differ from ours so I dont know dude but it does sound WAY to cheap!

 

It`s in New York. I spoke with Turkish accent sounding guy he said to call him tomorrow for address . We`ll see .I`m bring my brothers with me(in case something wrong happens), because i`m originally from Lithuania ur neighbor, so you know that we are suspicious about that kind of business dealing. But hope everything is right.

 

safer to meet somewhere public

 

Almost exactly a year ago I paid 29k for an '06 550 with 22k miles(Nav, Sport, rear shade, no HUD, cold weather or Comfort Access). I'd think a year later with 30k more miles 23,500 would be about right. Are they going for more than that elsewhere?

 

dealers(non bmw) are 3-4k more, but you know dealers allways have higher prices.i`m not even looking and real BMW dealers..

 

1 more question... how 550i act in a winter snow? if you have descent winter tires on. How much snow it can handle? Tnx

 

6 month ago the wholesale of my 2007 550 with 45K miles was around $24-25. We are talking, 2006, 6 more miles and 6 more months. Wholesale is probably around $20K. $23.5 seems to cheap for CPO but if it is not a BMW who is selling it, $3.5K markup could be reasonable profit for the seller.
