Used X5 prices

[Daka]

Trying to sell my 06 X5, 3.0, 66,000 miles sport, prem, rear comfort, park assist.
I am 2nd owner, was a CPO. Car is really a 9.9 all over (no dents dings etc) new tires. Black Saphire/Tan
Always a Florida car....
Realistically what should it bring?

A car like that should only be sold on an enthusiast site, only they would appreciate it but I'm gonna say around 16k

[four.8is]

No offense but a 8 year old car can't be a 9.9 whichever way you look at it..
Brand new cars are 9.9..
I say 13000$

I paid top of the market last Fall for the stick version, otherwise similar, slightly higher mileage, from a specialty dealer who put 4k+ [retail] into it for sale; I paid 18.5? for it, plus tax, etc. I'm thinking its worth 13-15k; kbb would tell you less. I expect it will sell for 12-13k if its in great shape and you can document service history. FYI, we made a good deal to buy a low mileage 2001 3.0L auto, some repairs done by the seller, for 9.5 in Houston.

OK OK, maybe it's a 9.8....but seriously it's really nice, and I'm fussy.
I just came back from a 1 3/4 hour ride to look at a 92 911 (964) that the owner claimed was close to mint....as my buddy who looks at cars with me said, that car should come with a BIG piece of cheese....it's a rat....
So, it's all in the eyes of the looker.....

Are you looking for a private sale value or what you think a dealer is gonna give you in trade on a new X?

If the latter, I would expect a dealer to maybe give 8-9 tops

...So, it's all in the eyes of the looker.....

In my experience of looking at cars for 60+ years, no 8 yr old used car is a "9.8" unless its been stored for the duration, occasionally driven to full hot, and hand cleaned between being covered/stored.

It is indeed "all in the eyes of the looker", but imo, a Dlr won't care much as they will probably wholesale it out, after you gotten beaten up via a trade in.

A private party may be enchanted by it's condition, however.

The prices quoted by previous posters are in the ballpark, imo.

It is an 8+ year old model X, that may find the 'perfect interested buyer', or it may not.

PS: You regularly mention that you have been a BMWCCA member for decades; I rec'd driving your X to the next cars & coffee/meet and seeing if any other local chapter members are interested.

PSS: when it comes to cars, motorcycles, boats, et al, one always tends to have an inflated value of what their stuff is worth, in my experience.

with mD as well, in real estate too, everyone's value perception is about 15-20% higher than true market value.

Kbb your 06 3.0 in very good condition with the mileage, and get the private party and trade in values and go from there. In my experience if you get blue book you are doing alright. Dealers will laugh at you if you ask to be appraised at blue book value

I leased a....gasp....2014 GLK for my wife, couldn't beat the deal...( she likes it....as it is primarily her car)...IMHO it aint' an X5, but the lease is about $200 a month less.
I have been toying with the idea of keeping it, but...really..do we need a 2nd SUV?
I mostly use the Z3...
I am going to try to get $13 for it...so if it sells, OK, if not no biggie for a while.
