And I don't have to get a x5 but I know I'll be stressed if I keep the x3.

Well, now I learned that buying a car need some serious research and consideration of different aspects.
No-one is going to buy a used vehicle for only $2 -3k less than they can just get it brand new, untouched. Especially when you're talking about a 60k vehicle. They won't get more than 55 - 57k would be my guess. Private party is probably your best way to go, unless you know someone that can sell it retail. Try ebay and whatever other outlets you have up there to sell it privately. You might be able to get 55 or so, since it's practically brand new and the warranty is so good, people won't be as concerned about it not being Certified Pre-Owned.
