Hey BMW gurus,

Alright so I am finally thinking of getting a BMW, and i wanted to make sure i was getting a good deal. So therefore, i would like to enlist your knowledge and experience to help me price this car out.

Situation:
Car started out as $22k (including extended BMW warranty)
after initial negotiation $21k (including extended BMW warranty)
then i told him NO ... take out the extended warranty ... he said $18k -- "absolute best" according to him

2006 BMW 325xi
55k miles
Ext: Black
Int: Maroon
Navi
Cold pkg
Premium pkg
xenon

Notes:
1. car had small scratches on bumper
2. paint dings
3. small grind marks on the rims (front)

Simply ... what would you pay for the car?
FYI: I can walk out with the car for - $19700 (with title, tax, registration & documentation fee)

I think $18K is a fair price. I paid $22K 18 months ago for a 06 325xi with same options and 37K miles. What maintenace has been performed? New tires are expensive. I just had to get brakes/rotors all around and it cost almost $1K. Great car but expensive. The more maintenace that has been done will certainly help. From what I have seen on this site, there is a lot of recommended scheduled maintenance at 60K miles.

Sounds like a good price to me.
