Maybe the market is different in Canada, but expect $20,000-$22,000 for your 2006 530xi if you're lucky. I tried selling my 2007 530xi privately last month, asking $30,000. I got 2 offers, one for $23,500 and one for $24,100. Wound up trading it in for $24,000 to a dealer.
I don't mean to rain on your parade, but it would be quite a long shot to get that amount for a 2006. The depreciation on these cars is murder.![Angry](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/angry.gif)

Talk to me about the Easy Care warranty. What does it cover? what are the terms? Hows your experience with them? Are they reliable and trustworthy? Do you have deductibles?
I'm always nervous about 3rd party, but my OEM warranty and maint runs out in a few months, and BMW wants 6350 for an additinal 3 yrs/100K miles.
Any input is greatly valued. Thanks.

I got the warranty when I had only 80 miles left to 50K miles on my OEM warranty. I paid about $3100 for an additional 3yrs/36K miles with a $500 deductable. I had some issues with a High Battery Drain warning and my dealer had to replace several things (CAS module, IBS...) and the claims process went smoothly. I think the key is that I bought the Easy Care warranty through my dealer so both companies already have a relationship which makes the claims process much smoother.
