Feeler: Selling/Trading the X

Well, for various reasons that I won't go into here, I'm entertaining the thought of selling/trading the X. I'm still at the stage of feeling things out on whether I want to trade it in or sell it. I'd like to sell it as is and keep parting it out to a minimum. Well, here is goes, what do you think I could get for her?

LeMans Blue
NAV
Heated Steering Wheel
Retractable Rear cargo floor
comfort seats
15,000 miles (going in for first service next week).had oil changes at 1000, 7500, and 12000 (just before X5World meet in DC).
aFe CAI
Angelibright AE upgrade
Aluminum running boards
V1 / S1 combo
JL Audio 12w6 (no amp)
Winter tires (1 season on them)
BMW Aux input
Uninstalled items to go too:

In today's market, the dealers will give you low BB, completely ignoring your upgrades. There are alot of CPO X5's sitting in the BMW lots here in L.A. - they have not been moving since gas prices climbed over $3.00. But if you trade it in, you might be able to make it up on whatever vehicle you purchase.

You could get a better deal selling private party, but it could take a long time to find a buyer. It is also a hassle to advertise and show the car.

If you go the dealer/trade-in route, part out everything, even the AE's and RB's if you have the OEM parts. You'll get nothing for these from the dealer. I went through this same exercise when I traded in my 540i which had Dinan Stage 2 + M5 body kit and ACS wheels (which I kept and sold).

Post some pics Eric. Let's check it out.

low to mid $50's my guess but i dont understand why people think that the upgrades they do make it worth more.
this makes no difference to price.
aFe CAI
Angelibright AE upgrade
Aluminum running boards
V1 / S1 combo
JL Audio 12w6 (no amp)
Winter tires (1 season on them)
BMW Aux input
Uninstalled items to go too:
Icelink Plus
ACS Replica Pedals

it will be priced the same if not lower than standard some people dont like the car to be messed with your better off removing AFE ANGELIBRIGHT ETC and selling.

I understand the whole upgrade thing. However, if someone on the board here is interested in the X, I will leave it as is. It also saves me the trouble of having to replace everything. If I do sell it as-is, I will include the stock parts (with exception to the exhaust)
