Here's the story:

2007 BMW 550i
Sports Package
Premium
Navigation
Cold Weather
Comfort Access
31000 miles
6 year/75000 mile bumper to bumper full warranty
$36775, out the door cost including taxes, title, reg, etc.

They are giving me only $20,000 for my 07 TL Type S w/ 26,500 miles

Is it worth it?

Low miles, optioned out, AND a badass V-8 under the hood? Yeah, I'd do it in a heartbeat, providing it's CPO.

Seems like a pretty good deal to me considering that's the final final number. I'll take that TL Type-S off of your hands for $21,000 .

That sounds good to me. I got a CPO 2006 Sport, Premium and Comfort Access, but without the Nav and Cold Weather package. (Nav would have be GREAT!) Cost me just a tad less. Good thing for me is I got a 3.9 APR.

I need to see a list of things that are not covered under this B2B warranty? Bet it is impressive.

Isn't your TL Type S selling for at least $25k with that mileage?

Melvin, you'll never get full value on a trade-in.

Did you try selling it private before going to the dealer, because 20k for an Type S is pretty low. Pretty sure you can sell it for like 24k - 26k. And your millage is pretty low 26kMiles

Here's the story on the warranty:

It's optional. Without warranty, the car would be:

30,500 for the BMW - 20K for the TL = 10,500 + TTL

But now the warranty would be covered under original BMW full maintenance/warranty up to 50K or Jan 2011.

I think my numbers above might've been wrong. The warranty alone is 3200 to increase it to 75K or 6 years and it is full B2B from carchex.com
