Started a new thread to reply to #20

Mercedes GL 550 it is. After a few hours of research I kept coming back to the GL. Not exactly the best looking one but the GL 550 looks sportier than the bland looking 350 and 450's.plus it's the most spacious one compared to the q7 and the x5.

Taking pictures of my x5 tomorrow.Those interested , check back in the for sale forum.

I still enjoy this car and would like to keep it but there's no way around it.

We found a really nice 7 seater...2012 Audi Q7 s line 3.0 supercharged in the area and we're thinking about trading in our x5 . At 130k miles, with 2 owners and full service records from 0 miles, what should I realistically expect from dealers to pay for my car? I guess they don't care about slotted brake discs and the Dynavin N6, but at least a rough estimate?

I'm trying to be realistic and not expect too much. I found KBB to be pretty inaccurate on trade ins with the previous cars I had...dealers either surprised me with good offers or I walked out thinking they're crazy.

Some actually ask how much you want for it. So I wanna be prepared.

Thanks for your help!

Come on Man, you've got a decently cared for 4.8is X5 E53, LeMans blue. Sell and market the vehicle to someone who will appreciate it. The dealer is only going to give you wholesale trade in value for your vehicle and then turn around and make thousands from trade in and thousands for selling. You should be able to find a good home for this rig outside of the dealership zone.

The Mercedes GL550 is the best looking out of the bunch. They are very spacious and the Q7 feels like a mini-suv on the inside as opposed to the GL550. Good family Rig

Good call - best option based on what you stated your needs were (and if going non-diesel). They are really nice all around vehicles.

Don't sell it!!! Nothing compares.
