Feeler: Thinking about selling my 05 4.8is...

I'm thinking about selling my Silver on Black 2005 4.8is, and I'm wondering what everyone thinks the car is worth and would be a fair price for it. I absolutely love this car, but my job just changed and I will be on the road a lot more, so I will probably end up with a 335 Sedan or a 5 series again!

It has 59,900 miles, a Clean Carfax, and I've always garaged it (in San Diego) and had it profesionally detailed. Like most 4.8is's, it is loaded with options:

Navi, 20 inch wheels, comfort seats, adjustable suspension, front and rear heated seats, front and rear park distance control, panoramic sunroof.

In addition to these options, it has the following upgrades:

CPO Extended Warranty through 06/11
BMW Tow Hitch (with a slick look, see picture)
BSW Subwoofer and front sound stage
BMW Ipod adaptor
Auxiliary Input (slick install in the front tray see picture
Tinted Windows
Rubber front and cargo mats

It also has brand new Toyo ST II Proxes tires.

Please let me know what you think!

Thanks

I just fixed it, 59,900 miles

I'm not sure how about the $$, that's why I started this thread, since I'm just getting started to find out!

Thanks

I checked Auto Trader and a few other sites and it seems like my baby has some decent upgrades on top of the usual stuff, the CPO, Tow Hitch, BSW Sound, new tires...

CPO is not really going to be a factor, it expires in 3 months. The hitch is nice if you tow. If not, it's not worth much to the buyer. Even so, I used hitch is only worth $200 at most. New tires are an add and the stereo may have added value as well.

Good point about the CPO, I didn't realize it only has a few more months left, time to take it in for the "invisible leak"...

2006 BMW X5 4.8IS !!! M/// !!! FAST !!! LEGENDERY PERFORMANCE

for comparison purposes only - same car, 12K more miles and 1 year newer for $26,999 (and I'd probably offer $25K if I was in the market with cash in hand).
