Re: [MBZ] BMW For Sale

[Dan Penoff via Mercedes]

You should contact BAT and see if they’re interested in selling it for you.  
Fees are cheap ($200?) and the potential for realizing more than you’re asking 
might be good, too.  Don’t cost nothin’ to ask:

LOL! VERY TRUE!  Actually, she is already asking for that.  But, when we do the 
kitchen it will require knocking down some walls.  Our house was built in 1979, 
so it has a living room (what is the point of that!) and a small hearth room, 
small dining room and big kitchen.  BUT, the wife wants to enlarge dining room, 
eliminate formal living room and have a larger kitchen and family room area.

By the way, the old dining room has Mirrors on one whole wall (its so 1970's 
disco). If anyone would like 3 LARGE floor to ceiling mirrors that are 5 feet 
wide and 8 feet tall, you can have them if you take them down!

Re: [MBZ] BMW for Sale

[Dan Penoff]

Not necessarily. I watch the local CarMax inventories, and they appear to do a 
big business in buying cars through wholesalers and private parties.

I would consider a car from them as long as it was a mainstream vehicle. They 
seem to fall down when they have something unusual or unique.

There is a lot to be said for the no-haggle approach, but that sort of takes 
the fun out of buying the car, I think.

 I am going to be putting my BMW up for sale this week because I am traveling 
 this weekend to pick up my new to me car.   So, here's the info on the BMW.
 
 2000 BMW 740iL Black exterior/ grey interior.  VERY nice shape.   The L 
 model indicates it is the long version just like the Mercedes L models.  It 
 has every option (or nearly every option) available in 2000 including 
 Navigation, premium sound, EDC (electronic damping control) as well as the 
 DTC (dynamic stability and traction control).  It also has one very 
 interesting special order option.  It has the security glass windows (very 
 thick) and the STEEL sunroof rather than the glass sunroof.  The paint is in 
 excellent shape and the interior is also VERY CLEAN.  All the options work.  
 It has a cassette and 6 disc CD changer in the trunk.
 
 The car had about 160,000 miles when I bought it.  It now has 192,000 miles.  
 So, I have driven it 32,000 in one year!  It has been perfect.  BMW requires 
 synthetic oil and the previous owner had ALL of his maintenance work done at 
 the BMW dealer in St. Louis.  In fact, at 160,000 miles he did ALL of the 
 recommended maintenance items and spent nearly $4000 getting everything 
 flushed, filled, adjusted, replaced, inspected, etc.  I spoke to the Service 
 Manager when I bought the car and he said the previous owner was a fanatic 
 about maintenance.  This was the previous owner's 3rd 7 series and he traded 
 it on a new BMW 7 Series active Hybrid. The Michelin tires on it are fairly 
 new and have lots of tread.  The cooling system has only had the BMW approved 
 blue coolant.  I have had it serviced at my local Indy who specializes in 
 MB and BMW.  I will be parking it at his lot if it doesn't sell this week.
 
 I get 25 mpg on trips when I keep the cruise at less than 80.  Over 30,000 
 miles of driving, I have average 18-19 mpg combined.  It will cruise all day 
 long at 100 mph.  The front and rear suspension were all rebuilt already and 
 it drives like one of the best driving cars in the world - as a 7 series 
 should.   I will be taking pictures later today and can send them to anyone 
 interested.
 
 In 1998, the 7 series received a facelift as well as getting lots of standard 
 features that were previously options.  It also has the newer 4.4L engine 
 that produces approx. 300 HP.  It is a big improvement over the 4.0L engines 
 in the previous models.
 
 2001 was the last year for the E38 Chassis and the 2000 and 2001 are the most 
 highly sought after.   You can probably find a cheaper 7 series, but not one 
 in this shape with this maintenance.

I am giving the Lexus a try. I'm sure it will be fine for a while.  Then, you 
are probably right, I will be looking for a BMW or Mercedes.  I just couldn't 
pass up the opportunity to buy the lexus.  I am getting a GREAT DEAL on it.

about where the law in Kansas stands on one particular issue, I will be looking 
for a much newer BMW or Mercedes.  Perhaps a 2013 BMW 750Li with twin turbo V-8 
(445 HP and 480 lb.ft. Torque)?  Or perhaps a 2013 S550?

No. Probably not.   I would probably buy a 2-3 year old S-Class or 7 series and 
save myself a $30,000 in depreciation.   For example, I found a 2010 Mercedes 
S550 with only 12,000 miles for sale on Car Max for $68,000.  The car sold for 
$95,000.  So, $27,000 loss in value in 2 years and 12,000 miles!  HOLY COW!

The BMW didn't fare much better.  I found a 2010 750Li with 16K miles for 
$65,000.  Original price, $90,000!

Re: [MBZ] BMW for Sale

[Kaleb C. Striplin]

If you are looking for a newer car, Carmax is actually a good way 
to go.  They are not the typical car business so you can feel free 
to test drive whatever you want and they do not pressure you.  If 
you find something out of state and one of their other stores, you 
can have it transferred.

I am giving the Lexus a try. I'm sure it will be fine for a while.  Then, you 
are probably right, I will be looking for a BMW or Mercedes.  I just couldn't 
pass up the opportunity to buy the lexus.  I am getting a GREAT DEAL on it.  
So, I will drive it for a while and then sell it.  I am currently working on a 
case that could be one of those cases lawyers talk about 20 years later.  I am 
representing 6 firefighters that were injured in an explosion.  If I am right 
about where the law in Kansas stands on one particular issue, I will be looking 
for a much newer BMW or Mercedes.  Perhaps a 2013 BMW 750Li with twin turbo V-8 
(445 HP and 480 lb.ft. Torque)?  Or perhaps a 2013 S550?

No. Probably not.   I would probably buy a 2-3 year old S-Class or 7 series and 
save myself a $30,000 in depreciation.   For example, I found a 2010 Mercedes 
S550 with only 12,000 miles for sale on Car Max for $68,000.  The car sold for 
$95,000.  So, $27,000 loss in value in 2 years and 12,000 miles!  HOLY COW!

The BMW didn't fare much better.  I found a 2010 750Li with 16K miles for 
$65,000.  Original price, $90,000!
