about to buy a used 2012 x5d, your input ?

[jeremym]

If you're going to pay that much for a used vehicle, why not just pony up the extra dough and grab a brand new one? One no one else farted in, etc...

I realize budget constraints are budget constraints...but with the new X5 around the corner, as you stated, even buying used (no matter the price) doesn't make much sense (unless you don't like the new one?)

Right, and then everyone will be saying "don;t buy first year", then "wait till LCI"...

This X5 has already taken the hit of the first year depreciation. It will take few more, be at least OP will save $15K or so on an almost new vehicle.
