When they got the car it was high price so they will not sell it at lower than they got it.
Just like your watches.
no 1 what the 2nd hand cars now unless it is a private sale, maybe you can sell the car 1st on 28car and car8
then get a private sale car.
I would not go throw the 2nd hand dealers now, not good prices.
BMWHK are giving alot on the trade-in right now try them and see what you will get for you car.
See if it is more than the 2nd hand dealers.
I ask a few weeks back on my e60 and the guy said 160k that a drop of 40% from 3 months ago.
:thumbsdown:

Watches is OK due to zero maintenance or operation cost. Also, vintage watches will not depreciate like cars. Afterall, I can sell them to every part of the world in a flash.
Though the watch business has all these advantage, we still have such a diffcult time. I wonder how the car dealers will survive in the coming time ?

its a great chance for you guys to test out your big brakes and hard suspension. most importantly, you can find out how your car handles without the worry of hitting something.
