Guaging Interest - 2011 335i Touring

[networkn 1]

Hi There!

I am looking at upgrading my 2011 Touring 335i.

Wanting 65K for it, and looking to offload it perhaps End of January. Can be a little flexible on timing.

It is an M-Sport and runs 18" Michellin ZP RFT's.

It's Silver. Done 35000KM's

Was originally imported from the UK. No issues I am aware of other than the coin holder is broken.

I'll post a picture a little later.

Are you really surprised? You are trying to sell a high value vehicle and can't even be bothered to put up a photo of car.

As a member of the forum you have made a grand total of 8 posts, so no-one knows you from a bar of soap.

Without any further details price looks to be well above the market value for a UK import.

Don't be upset if people aren't queuing up to throw 65k your way.

May I ask what you are basing that on ?

Well, to be fair I wasn't trying to sell it actively, I was trying to gauge interest, of which it seems there is little. The lack of a photo wouldn't stop a genuinely interested party from expressing interest I wouldn't have thought, however, it's certainly possible to put one up. Is there a reason you are suggesting it's priced too high?

Selling a car, you're doing it wrong.

I would think even with the low mileage and 2011 model 335i Msport, price range would be 45-55K. This is purely my opinion. GLWTS.

Possibly the fact that you've somehow done 350000km in a 4 year old car and are still for some reason selling it for 65k..

Err it says I have done 35,000 KM's

I did inform a friend of mine who is actively looking for a vehicle like this.

Not sure where he is getting his prices from but seems to think it is nearly $15K over priced.

He is negotiating to import one from the UK himself.

Just some feedback if you are interested.

Not the photo on it's own, more the lack of details - silver colour, which one? Interior - leather? Nav system? Which 18" wheels, what options fitted, etc. All quite important for someone looking at a premium used vehicle.

Car may not be over priced, if it has a very good spec, lots of options and is in exceptionally good condition.

However, when there are slightly older, but still LCI examples available for $30k less it is still going to be a hard sell...

Plus the forum rules state a photo must be included... at least you have made it over the 10 post count now!!

Just a tip. "gauging interest / not in a hurry to sell / if I don't get my price I will keep" doesn't work. You paint yourself as an 'unmotivated seller' and people are discouraged from this.

If you want more interest from the forum, this is how you list a vehicle.

Well it's a little hard not to paint it like this, when this is simply the case (I am trying to get an idea of ballpark so I can work out what upgrade cost may be). When I get home tonight I'll put together a proper listing.

Thanks for the information.

Saw this when you first posted it and first thought was nobody will pay $65K for a 335i. Just checked TradeMe briefly and the most expensive 335i Msport was 45K (Jap Import, LCI, 9,500km) There are numerous for sub-30K, and a number of M3s for less than $65K.

I'd suggest looking at the market to get an accurate gauge of what you car is worth.

That's why I didn't reply.
