That 4.6 is down to $10,800 if anyone is interested. Looks like he may be in a mood to bargain?

If anyone is really serious about it, I could go check it out for you? I will be down in the valley on Sunday evening and could swing by?

No association, but had to share, since I love the color here. Needs some work, but could be a sweet ride for someone looking to get into a 4.8is on the cheap:

That thing needs lots of love. Probably much more so under the hood, could be a bargain, could be a curse.

That one is pretty clean, but that 'M' badge on the tailgate has got to go.

Not sure about that '15 & later question. Maybe the maintenance is too high?

My question: Why are there more '15 and later X5 on Craigstlist than E53s?
I'm going to guess a few reasons:
1) Production is a lot higher now., so there are more recent X5s than original.
2) E53s get totaled in basically any accident.
3) E53s are at a point in their price / maintenance cost curve where it frequently makes sense to junk them rather than put money in.

Net-net, E53 numbers are rapidly decreasing. New X5s keep pouring off the line. And people largely lease new ones, so the turnover rate is very high.
