Re: 530i-e39

hi all,

i'm interested 530i (coming to 4th year and ard 76k milege) and the paper value is ard 97k. wat would be the good price for me to get ? any known problems with this model ? appreciate any comments, thanks 8)

I think the average depreciation for such a ride shd be $13k p.a. or less. Also dependent on other factors like no. of owners, whether accident free, GPS, high end stereo, body-kitted, nice rims, nice number plate etc.

Good luck to your car-hunting. The 530i wld be a great car to own and drive. Juz the right size and power.

Hi sounds like someone i know, a car i test drove

its a apple green/grey 2 owner 12/00 530 stock condition

Owner has a 745/SC430 + 3 other beemer ithink (all 3 series) if i am not wrong

Well its good car. If paper is 97K -- 94K(after 3%) + body 20-25k
so should be selling abt 114-119K. aLthough one dealer claimed body was 36K.

dep for 530 for the cars i mentioned above were bet 11.5 to 14.8K

accessories are important

ever thought of 728, you could get at the same price with higher OMV, ride is quite good

just a few differnces

728 (after 8/00 facelifted)

SEDC- Electronic Dampner Control
14 speaker DSP
Suction boot
18 " rims
M steering
side blinds
GPS (after 9/01)
0-100 (8+) on paper


530

S/roof
17" rims
0-100 (7+) on paper
Xenon (in later models)


Std on Both

Electrical Steering Column
DSC
PDC
Electrical Rear Blind


Besides this greater interior space. Best buy is 728 with GPS. you should try the DSP sound system its


Maybe i am biased
cheers
