Need help! 2011 335is Good deal?
I came across this beauty yesterday and really considering buying outright. This is at a Mbenz dealer locally.
A few questions: What should my OTD price be? The BMW 4 year warranty should be good until 2015 is this transferrable and be applicable at my local bmw dealer? Can I upgrade the warranty for longer? Should I take into my bmw dealer to look it over? Anybody that has a biz and uses a car as expense, can you describe mile tracking and how much of the cost is used as a deductible (depreciation, mileage, costs, etc)? 2011 335is Convertible M sport Milage: 3624 (apparently the guy that had it never drove it); flawless condition. Test Drive: I was looking at a 2013 335i but this felt so much tighter with the old steering, and the IS is fast. Options: It has black M sport exhaust tips. M performance package? It definitely sounds great. Pics: Thanks for the advice/help in advance! Dr. Bhoom |

Your 1st set of pics made me dizzy.......
Great car, I'm a bit confused about the price, 59k? How much is that off the sticker price? is it worth 2-3 years less on the warranty/free maintenance? Some items on N54 are notorious for failure such as the turbos, longer warranty is a good thing to have in those cases. And usually yes you can add a CPO warranty on a used car as long as you are in the warranty. |

Probably stickered for $63kish but it's still 2 years old. I have a similar spec 2011 (non-vert IS) that I bought new for just under $58k. I'd say just $48k would be a better price.

One thing is for sure, if you get it remove that god awful ///M badge beneath the radio controls. It looks like there is some kind of badge next to the '335is' on the dash as well.

no, no that was just the new car price. I wanted to show the options it has. I was offered 45,500 +tax/fees. I was trying to get it to 45 OTD. They said it has a warranty until 2015, but I was going to take it to a local bmw dealer and have them look over it. How much is a CPO warranty usually run? |

You ought to have the dealer check the maintenance records. I only have 11k on my car and the oil has been changed 3 times and brake fluid flushed. They'll do it annually as well as by usage.

Oh wow, I didn't expect that low of value but dealers make it on used cars! I was thinking about the ext. warranty isn't it 7 years/100? What's the usual price of these? I looked at the carfax and it has been serviced once by my local bmw dealer after it was bought by mbenz. So I definitely want to get a warranty. Do the dinan upgrades void the warranty? I was thinking of doing suspension and exhaust as the first mods, if I ended up getting this. Thanks for the help man. |

The M3 would be nice, but the gas costs + insurance is not something I want to spend right now. I feel the 335is still can give me a good mpg and good insurance rates haha.

I believe you should be able to get the 45k OTD. BMW were discounting the 335is for 10k+ back in 2011/12. Just straight up with the dealership 45k OTD is the most you would pay for the car and walk out after. They will call you back.
