you are not going to find that car for that price... i just bought a 545 black/black from a dealership....first, white is a very rare color...also to find a car under 35k with under 50k miles is not an easy job.... these two things will make for a really hard search.... Where are you located? if your in the new york area try carbuyersmarket.com... they have alot of higher milage 545s in different colors.... silver and black and orient blue are the most popular used colors i have seen around....good luck man...

Where are you located at. If it is in the chicagoland area I have connections w/ a wholesaler who moves about 150 cars a month and can find any car you want. PM if you are interested

Oh he can find one at that price. The paint will be chipped to crap and the rims will be scraped up, but you can find one.

You are correct, but if the buyer is unrealistic in his goals he will be faced w/ what he gets. The wholesaler usually only deals w/ perfect cars but I am sure he could get him one that fits his budget. It took him 3 weeks to find my car but it was a perfect ultra low miles car. He said that most of the cars were exactly what he wants.

I don't even think it's possible. Unless the car has been in a accident or has a salvaged title. :thumbsdown: You will have to spend more money to get what you want.

Well looking at the Blackbook (NOT Kelly Blue Book which is not even close to auction prices) and recent e60 auction prices, your looking at a 2004 50k miles w/ out nav is about $33,500.00-34,500 w/ clean titles So I disagree with you about your comment. The car may have some imperfections but it will not be salvaged title or accident car.

Hopefully he did not mean Alpine White is a heavily discounted color
