A CPO base 335i for $30k or a new one for 25% more?

Would you get a cpo 2007 335i sedan, with absolutely no options for $30k or would you shell out the extra $7-8k and get a brand new one?

I'm very tempted by this CPO. about 20k miles.

Get the new one if the difference is so minute.

You can find optioned 335's for $30K. I posted a couple in another thread. Also I don't know where you will find a bone stock 335 new on a lot for $37K.

This is the one I linked:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/07-33...1%7C240%3A1318

under 20K miles, CPO with Sport package.

I wouldnt want a CPO one bc who knows what tune was in that thing before it was returned to the dealer. So many piggybacks available that it seems like the chances are you're getting a once-tuned car. But if it bone stock since delivery then get that thing asap! you lose so much value from a new car the SECOND you drive it off the lot. not really worth it unless you want diff options or a car that is solely "yours" with no prior owners. my .02

I would look at what options you really want. Are you leaving out the option of Euro deliery? Are you liking the LCI design over the pre?

I would bet that less than 10% of all 335's have a tune. This entire forum represents a very small percentage of 335 owners.

Look for leftover 08s. I've seen a number of reports of people getting leftover 08 335s with 45k sticker (not a totally stripped car) for 35k.
