[chewable]

Hi,

I'm eyeing a 2011 e90 328i, N51 with nav , 88k.

Any advice on how much this should go for? I'm assuming the owners have done the regular maintenance at the dealership (requesting records). kbb shows 5.5 - 9k, wide range. just hoping to get more practical advice.

This will be my first bmw and I am hoping to learn more DIY for it, but also banking on the SULEV warranty for a lot of the components to limit my maintenance costs. Water pump/thermostat hasn't been replaced so I have that number in the back of my mind. Will have to fix daytime running lights, some minor interior usb issues, update maps.

Is this even a good idea? Hoping to have this car for the next 5-6 years but don't want to have to drop a ton on repairs for a higher mileage bmw.

appreciate any input

8-9k is a fair price

I paid 7200.00 for a 2011 328i xDrive with 103,000 miles but it's fully loaded with Nav and all power options. It was in KBB good condition and has new tires and sport rims. I felt like I got a pretty good deal. It has the N51 engine and it's already paid off as I had a hose on my secondary fuel pump go bad within the first month of ownership. It would have cost me 170.00 at the BMW dealership for a 7 inch plastic hose that took 15 mins to replace.
