Possibly thinking of selling my car.
The car is loaded with all options minus navigation.

2005 bmw 525i aw/auburn
sport pkg
cwp pkg (heated setas 3 stages & heated steering wheel)
prem. pkg
pdc (front & rear)
sun shade (rear power & side roll up)
automatic tranny
comfort seats
Logic 7 stereo
xenon lights
and more stuff like m5 rear spoiler & roof spoiler etc.

I have 100k CPO warranty that is transferrable.
I also have 100k service/maint. warranty on the car that I purchased seperately.

This is just a feeler as i might want to get something more powerful car (cls500/cls550 or m5).

No accident, no paint work. Absolutely no stories.
Original sticker was $54,xxx.

Please advise.

If the OP were doing a private sale that'd be about right .. but in this market the trade-in value would probably be closer to $16K

At those numbers it might be better to keep the 525 as a daily driver and buy a second "toy" to play with ... say an M3?

Nahhh bro. i just did some research and it can't be that low.
Let's see for starters this is pulled from the latest Manhiem Auction in Penn.
2004 525I 6G 4DSN 6 PS PB AC SR 4X2 42,352 SILVER $17,200
2007 525I 6G 4DSN A PS PB AC 13,407 BLACK $25,100
2006 525XI 6G 4DSN AWD 85,427 BLACK $18,800

* let's use the highlighted one as reference. My car is 05 one year newer but a little more mileage, but has CPO and maintenance.
CPOs always bring a little more even in the wholesale, plus my car has no issues and/or paintwork or damages.

I think I can pull 20 probably in trade in and about 21-23k private sale but no more.
Even that really sucks. WTF am i gonna get for 23k, can't even get a brand new loaded accord for that much.
shame

I have seen $23.5 for a loaded 2005 545i with sport package and navi. with 52 k miles and certified. So, I would say no more than $21k.
