I have a 2007 550i Sport, Monaco Blue with Grey Dakota - In service date of 3/31/06
6 speed manual
20,xxx miles
Factory options include:
Cold Weather package
Premium Sound Logic 7
Sport Package
Comfort Access
$66,845.00 sticker
Aftermarket options
see my signature

Car is in excellent condition

Owned by adult car enthusiast (my way of saying I am older than most here )

It's easy to find asking prices which ranges from $42,000 - $50,000 but hard to find many completed sales.

What would be a fair asking price and at what price point would it sell?

Feel free to throw any numbers out there, I won't be insulted. Those who provide a realistic assessment will get a prize.

thanks

And what do you have an "itch" to get into next? (If I may ask)


Checked KBB, it listed your car for about ~$49,400 in California...

If your trying to sell in a hurry, 41-43k will definitely be an eye catcher. If your looking for a better return, I would start around high 40s but maybe mid 40k is the way to go (ie: 44,950, or 45,800)

Thanks all

about what I expected and it helps not being in a hurry.

thanks monster, but I will respectfully decline your offer.

Still on the fence. The 550 is a great car and I really don't need 2 more cylinders, but sometimes the itch gets the better of me.
