Not really for sale 135 N54 w/ Mods

I'm about to take delivery of a 2011 328ix Msport wagon and had hoped it would become my daily and my 2010 135 could be relegated to a track/weekend cruiser but my wife has given me the "one-car-only" ultimatum.

I'm placed a poorly written For Sale sign behind the tinted rear window and placed a Craigslist add with no contact information, but fear at some point I may have to seriously list the car.

I'm wondering if $15k with the below modifications on a 2010 E82 (N54) and 68,000 miles is a price point that will scare anyone off.

Car is N54 Twin turbo with Sport Package, auto, Navigation and sunroof, and has the following mods:
  • ER Charge Pipe with Forge Diverters
  • Corsa Exhaust System
  • Arma Carbon Fiber Intake
  • Cobb AccessPort
  • VSRF Stepped Intercooler
  • Hybrid Audio/Audison/ - 800w Stereo
  • ECS 2 piece Brake Rotors w/ cool carbon pads
  • Vargas PCV valve upgrade
  • Stett performance billet vacuum canisters
  • Mirror, Wheels, 1M Style Spoiler and Side Skit trim painted to match Brake Calipers

Nice car. I would say convince her otherwise. Maybe offer her something in trade. Like allowing her to keep her present or future first born (you won't sell him/her in to slavery) and you get to keep your 1er.

Yeah that's about right for an auto. MT would go for a little more.

DCT is a little more than an auto. A total blast in manual mode. Plus I can shift much faster than a manual transmission driver. With that said, I would always prefer a standard manual, but as I've stated many times on this forum, I severely broke my left ankle in 2008 and it never healed properly and still causes me a lot of pain, so no more clutch for me. Thanks for asking. lol
