Low mileage examples will be going up regardless of market these days. Old models are getting desirable

I got a 4.8is in 2015 with 51,000 just under $20k. A bit high, but basically 1 of 2 sub 55k cars in CA at the time.

A silver 06 4.8is with 85k miles 1 owner and pretty clean just sold for 14k in Chicago, so I'd say yours is worth easily 15k. I have my eye on an 06 black on black 2 owner with around 89k miles for 11k gonna go take a look tomorrow.

Thanks everyone for the feedback! High teens would be nice, but would anyone have a lead on an OEM tow package by chance?

This may be the best route considering it will only be 4 or 5 weekends a year and we love the 4.8is otherwise!

Eddie, seems you have a bead on a nice one! Congrats!

They are a little hard to find nowadays, but they are out there. Gotta be patient and diligent in searching.

Thanks! Yeah it seems pretty nice, athough it just had the 'pre purchase inspection' completed today by their local BMW dealership which they informed me that the vacuum pump is leaking oil pretty bad ($800 job parts and labor) and the air pump as well as the air valve block are both leaking air pretty bad for the air suspension ($2500-3000 job). So trying to negotiate down on the price some to cover the repair(s). Good luck with finding a tow package!

FYI - there's an 2006 4.8is (le Mans blue) with only 51k miles on eBay right now, trying to get $20k. Looks clean just not a fan of that interior if I were to acquire it.

Nope, but just purchased an Escalade since it will be used for a tow vehicle, so my 60K mile Imola Red 4.8is will be hitting the market in the next 2 week!

Thanks to everyone in this thread, I felt a little more comfortable that there was a decent market with how rare these models are so I appreciate everyone's feedback as it gave me the courage to get a tow rig. I love the 4.8 to death, but didn't feel the need to go all out to retro-fit our current vehicle when a stock escalade has a 8300 lb tow rating!

Thanks XOUTPOST!
