WTF? Check out Dinan's profile and be on the board for more the 20 posts then tell us how he doesn't own a X5

The KBB trade-in's on the X aren't that high:

Excellent
$30,125

Good
$28,600

Fair
$25,750

And the seller was most likely either paid off or a wholesaler for the value which, at $25,000 is not that much of a price hit. Just because you paid a marked up cost doesn't mean someone else needs to.

Thats is a great deal...Sometimes you get people who just want to sell a car no matter what...Who knows what the real reason is...You hear all kinds of stuff, but it all comes down to what the person wants to achieve...Either he paid for it already and the 25K is going something he really wants, or the payments are killing him, and he just wants out of the deal...Who knows..

Anyway D, is your friend going to be our newest member?

there are three books...galves, KBB, and Edmunds....KKB is the highest.

Wags you have to compare all three.

Roc3b, you're right which makes my point even more...that 25K, while rarely seen, isn't that huge of a deal on a 2003 X5.

WTF are you talking about. Are you actually trying to say i dont really own an X5. First of all I own an X5 and second of all im buying a second one in a couple of months. But that is besides the point. Since ive onwned dozens of BMWs over the past 15 years. And my first car was a BMW.
Now ive bben on this website for about a year now and have come to know many of the people on here. I also have over 1200 posts.
You have like 10 posts and noone knows you. How do we know you have an
X5. Memers here have seen countless pics of mine where is yours. Do you have an X5?
Just because my friend got a smokin deal by luck on a X5 you think i dont own one. What are you talking about.
The fact is as Wagner and others have correctly stated gas prices and a new X5 model coming out is driving down our resale values drastically. Its a reality and thats life. So accept it. My buddy got a better deal than you did. I think it was mostly being the right person in the right place at the right time and the fact that he has tha ability to pay cash all helps.

Who really cares how many BMWs you own, or how many posts you wrote, how much money you have. Geez man, stop showing off. I am new here and I worked hard to own my first X5. I just said i don't believe the guy and there you go showing off your stuff. Please.

You said you didnt believe i owned an X5. Im not showing off anything. I just get really F#$%ing pist off when people call me a liar. And i assumed you were calling me a liar. Dont try to turn this around on me. I dont need to show off anything especially to people i have never met face to face before. I worked hard for everythin ive ever bought. Be it my first BMW or my latest. You started this bullshit. Where did you get the balls to say I dont really own an X5 and you didnt believe the deal my buddy got. I have nothing to lie about. and no reason to show off.

For god's sake, forget what I have said and move on.

"WTF" "F%ING" "BS" shouldn't be used. Thanks and be nice. Don't pour your anger here please. I just expressed my opions thats all. Profanity is not recommended. Still don't believe in such deal period. I dont accuse no one and didn't even directly mention anyone name. "YOU" in my post meaning "WHOEVER". Dont get offended and personal. Once again, forget what I have said and move on.

I don't know what your problem is. DINANM3 has been on this board a very long time; he's established alot of credibiity here providing both technical advice and X5 owner comraderie, so he's earned the respect of the people who are on this board day in and day out.

But you come in here and flat out accuse him of lying. So DINANM3's buddy got a great deal. Just because you weren't fortunate enough to find such a great deal, there's no reason to turn it into a personal attack.

Take a chill pill and enjoy the forum. You're not going to find alot of stuffed shirts and pretentious people here, so don't even bother playing that card either. And take the time to know your audience.
