As an FYI in So Ca a clean imola red 4.8is with tan interior and only 52k miles sat for well over a month before selling. Listed for only $10000. Clean carfax. I almost bought it and now wish I had. There is also a silver 4.8is with 109k miles or so, looks clean and the price is well under $8k now. Been dropped a few times in the past 2 months. I would prefer a stock car over someone playing with mods.

Worth and value are two different things, depending on whether we are the buyer or seller.

When my I am ready to part with my X5 I will likely just give it to charity for the tax benefit. Avoid dealing with tire kickers and there are a ton of E53's on the market at any one time.

My X5 4.8is is all oem with ththe exception of the dynavin radio. VSS was done with oem parts and all parts that are replaced are with OEM parts. I know what my truck is worth and I have already decided to stay with it.

I bought imola/creme beige @ 80k miles in San Jose for $15000 + TTL. There was a line out the door to buy it... so either those trucks you mention are in horrible condition... or the So Cal market is the best place ever to buy a 4.8is.
