Offer 15. E60s with over 100K tend to stay for sale for a long time...

He called the dealer and they lowered the price to 17,488. Their not willing to negotiate on the price of the car. We went to go check another similiar miles and similiar price but the car was really beat up. Any other deals out their that you guys can recomend. He only has 16,000 plus the fees to spend on a car.

The depreciation hit these cars took over the past couple of years is REALLY depressing

It is not out of the ordinary for a 5 series. Comparable to the way E39 depreciated and definitely not out of the norm. I expected it, so I'm not upset at all. Still a great car
