Kees 598 Report post Posted November 10, 2021 Just spotted this on marketplace. 6 Speed manual 2011 BMW 535i. UK Import that came into NZ in late 2012. Interesting car but $37.5K seems very steep, especially since its almost F10 M5 money. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sammo 2550 Report post Posted November 10, 2021 $15k plus premium, don't really get it with the ZF 8 speed being so good and well suited to a boat like the F10... Not even Msport. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But this is nothing like an m5. And with 535is available for 15k odd, certainly not worth it in a car like this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GorGasm 563 Report post Posted November 11, 2021 Yeah, could make a cool car out of it but better off with a M5. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2313 Report post Posted November 11, 2021 Looks like such a boring model though, especially with those wheels. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trying to cash into the die hards that won’t give up on manuals. Even though it would be slower 0-100 and less economical as a manual… And yep it’s a pretty weird spec, no M Sport kit and old man beige interior so a real odd ball combination. Some UK dealer probably had to cut it loose and it ended up here. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smiddy 76 Report post Posted November 11, 2021 Those wheels? Would struggle to look good on a trailer, imo. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodachrome 158 Report post Posted November 12, 2021 Pretty much doubled the price due to manual but took nothing off for lack of MSport and those wheels... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelvinfitz 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2023 So funnily enough. I'm looking at the same car that's up for sale now with 100k on the clock, what is is actually worth Dudes asking 25k which is also steep. Similar spec autos with 30-50k more kms on clock are 15k But I'm thinking trade for a 2010 commodore gtr sport wagon? But he's wanting cash his way?

GorGasm 563 Report post Posted July 18, 2023 Seems fair. I would value a manual 535i more than a Commodore. A manual F10 is a rare thing, I think 20-25k isn't out of the realm of reasonable, but it may need the right buyer to come along. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Driftit 2093 Report post Posted July 18, 2023 Wasn't this car quite low spec for a F10 535i. I feel like it didn't have any motorsport options and some cheap aftermarket wheels. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
