Good Price for 2010 135 M-Sport

Boomstick1491 · 06-13-2011, 05:48 AM

I am looking for a late model 2010 M-Sport in 6MT with low miles. I recently found one at the CarMax very close to my house. Although I do not really want to deal with CarMax because you cannot negotiate and I am sure their price is higher than it should be, I am curious what you all think of this price. It has all of the options I want and the exterior color I want, but I would have preferred the black interior. The car has the following setup:

2010 135
6800 miles
LeMans/Gray/Poplar
M-Sport
Premium
Cold Weather
I-Drive
iPod
Rear Park Assist
Sirius

CarMax has the price listed for 35800. What do you think? Thanks!

Used vehicles are sky high across the country making it difficult to bargain. Almost all prices are well above retail.

Go to KBB and see what the trade-in and the retail value is. That should give you an idea of what they paid and if their price is close.

I have looked at a few Carmax 135's and they are usually right in between trade-in and retail.

Unfortunately bargaining is not an option with CarMax. I have seen a bunch of similarly equipped cars available from private party sellers on this forum and elsewhere, but none are in the DC area, which would make buying them a pain... Is the extra 1-2k worth the ease of purchase?

It's a little high. If they dropped 2.5k then I would say deal. I paid 30k for a CPO 09 convertible with 8000k miles with the sport package.

According to KBB, the retail price is 40,005 and trade-in is 35,400. From those numbers, it looks like a really good deal. Maybe I am missing something. Thoughts?

I just bought my 2010 AW 135i w 9400 miles, Nav, Sport, Premium, Comfort Access, Hi-Fi, Sirius, Heated Seats, Steptronic etc.for $34,500 and it is CPO'd

Best bet is to be patient and get what you want.
