Advice on Trade

Guys,

My wife has a 2008 328i convertible, hard loaded with every option (except for park distance and comfort access), black sapphire/black, 21,000 miles. She is pregnant so at some point we will need to trade her car for a bigger vehicle.

We were wanting to wait until the fall, but with the refreshed 3 coming we are wondering if we should go ahead and trade her car now?

Our thought was that if we wait we could pay the car down that much more between now and September. My only concern is what it's value will be in the fall. Right now dealers in Texas are offering $34,000-35,000 on trade.

Any advice would be appreciated it.

I think that is a great price for a 2008. I will take it.

Since you have time try to sell it private party, you stand to make more $$$. Cars.com has worked great for me in the past.

This is trade so hard to say until you tell us what the price you are paying for the new car, or is this 34k-35K cash price dealer give you?
I've seen people get high trade value but get jacked on the new car price, remember you need to cover both ends (OK no riske joke on that)
