Hello. Advice needed for purchasing 335I.

blaquem5 · 09-02-2010, 09:20 AM

Hello all. Hope I'm posting in the right section. I been looking at a few 335's and this one really caught my eye. 2007 335I Alpine White with "peanut butter" interior. It has sport package and Nav.

Did anyone here own this? It seems like a good deal. Thanks in advance.

It's the best color combination for the e92. One of my favorite combination.

Yeah looks good to me. That's a pretty good price. I'd buy it.

The price isn't bad. You can check Kelly Blue Book to get a sense of what a reasonable price should be. I, however, would not buy a used BMW if it's not sold to me by a BMW dealer as a CPO vehicle....that's just for my own piece of mind. If not buying from a BMW dealer, you should base your price assessment on the "private party" value.

BTW...I don't even recall BMW using a color name of "peanut butter." I thought it was called "Saddle Brown." But it probably doesn't matter what color they call it as long as you like the color. Good luck with your purchase and welcome in advance.

Actually, the Best Buy on that site is the 07 328 Cpe. http://www.staffordautosales.com/det...d-5527773.html

Without a CPO on an 07 335i with 40,000 miles I'd be hesitant to bite at that price.

What kind of a moron lists the interior color as "peanut butter" on a sale page?

that's clearly saddle...same wood/leather combo i have. It is a fantastic combo and I get compliments on it connnnnnnnnnnstantly.

I really would have reservations about buying a 40k 335i without it being CPO. Maybe you're a gamblin' man, but I'm not. The N54 is a phenomenal engine....

....when it works right.

Thanks for all the advice!! I will keep searching. Hopefully I can find one thats CPO. I know it won't be that price though.
