me too...THAT'S MY FAV COLOR!!! :(

Hahahaha, congrats! I knew it ... gotta have an X and can't get rid of the bug!:D :rofl:

Hey .. ur missing the x-pipe ... wait a minute ... nevermind ... here comes da full exhaust! :thumbup: :popcorn:

lol sorry - didn't see this. No can't get this one CPO'd - bmw doesn't do that, that's what they told me. But i can get a full warranty for $2500 from Fidelity through them.. and maint warranty for $1895.

The CPOs are $37-39k with 35k miles - on avg that i'm seeing. I'd rather spend less $ and have less miles to start.

lol - no.. going to keep them for the new X... even if i get another set, i'll keep these to have my options.

LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEEE the new X! Congrats!

It sounds like a deal but you have to wonder why no cpo, are you buying from a BMW dealer?

No i'm not. But BMW simply can't CPO every vehicle that comes off lease. My first BMW wasn't purchased on CPO and i had no major issues in the first 1.5 yrs.. things started to go because of old age.

I did share the same skepticism as well though - the "too good to be true" syndrome.. it has 17k miles.. and it's not on BMWs lot... has to be a problem with it.. So i called BMW and got the service record info over the phone. in the last 3 yrs it's been in the shop 3 times... for minor things. 1 visit was to adjust the seatbelt..

I do know that here in the northeast BMW has an auction that dealers go to, and i imagine that alot of the cars there don't go CPO, but to other dealers. A friend of mine is a dealer and bought my brother in law's 2006 530xi from the BMW auction. His wasn't CPOd but he hasn't had any issues yet (knock on wood).

Not that this makes a difference, but i hope it is evidence that the dealership has pride in their cars, they sell high end cars.. i was even thinking of getting the 2006 Bentley coupe, but couldnt get him to budge from $90k to $33k.. :-D

Thanks M - love the avatar.. hopefully i'll be at the meet with my new chic...

LOVE the interior! congrats on a sweet new ride!

Most of the lease return at my dealer go straight to auction, especially the X5's. The only reason I was able to buy the one I have was that they knew what I was looking for and held it for me.

Sounds like you got an awesome truck at a good price, so don't fret over the CPO. Does it still have a bit of warranty left anyways or is it just out...?
