Have been looking at the same car you have been for some time. Not to hott on the colour but not too many choices in Ottawa and the surrounding area.
They are over pricing it for the year it is; and the kilometers it has. Im sure some one will buy it soley because it was bought from a certified BMW dealership. Rather than from a used car dealership in the states.

I agree - the colour is not very inspiring and the price is out of line.

I know these guys too! I've been there a couple of times man. And to tell you the truth most of there cars were into small accident claims, repainted, from quebec and US. I looked at a couple of cars that i liked they had and over the past years none of them were clean bro. I dont know if its just me but i'd stay away.
any used car dealership is the same. These guys are one of the best dealerships in Tdot.

Thats true too, but the customers ask for it, usually trade ins. Venus was the only one to have 2 Alpinas B7 in Toronto selling them. Really sweet cars, 1 black other white.

I also am looking:
06 M5 (Clean Carfax/ 2 Owners)
35K miles
$35,088 OTD
HUD
Rear Shades Sepang/ Sepang Perforated Leather/Mediera Walnut trim
Smokers Pkg
Sat. Radio
Split rear seats
6 Disc Changer
I'm just waiting until Monday for my back to talk to the dealer and it's time for me to take a flight. Maintenace history is pretty clean. 2 Oil changes, Brake fluid change, and Standard scopes.

and an M5. Someone forgot the annual oil service (regardless of mileage indicated in the CBS iDrive). 
If I were the anticipated buyer I'd require a thorough engine examination to ensure that excessive wear resulting from abuse was not present. And no way would I offer anything close to average retail for a car with that service record no matter how clean it looked. And I'd require significant warranty on the engine or I'd walk. But that's just me ...
