2018 F80 M3 - 12.4k miles - 6MT Comp & Exec with warranty left

Details and photos here:

https://f80.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...7#post28709607

One-owner, late 2018 (June production) F80 that I custom-ordered for ED pick-up in early July 2018, so factory warranty is good until then.

- June 2018 production
- 12.4k miles
- Sunroof
- Manual transmission
- Sakhir Orange with black full leather interior
- Competition package
- Executive package (ICON LED lights, HUD, Full Leather, cameras, etc.)
- Completely stock except for Apple Carplay retrofit last year.
- Full Expel front end wrap added late 2020.
- No accidents, no dents. A couple of minor scratches in hard to spot areas. Wheels are immaculate.
- Car has had zero issues and has never been to the dealer for anything other than service or Mass. inspection stickers.
- Clean title in hand. All records and receipts.
- Non-smoker, no pets, no winters. Always garaged. Has never spent a night outside while in my possession. No track days, no launches, etc. It has been babied. Heck, I've always driven it with leather gloves on.
- Due to European Delivery, car came from the factory with a warning triangle and a first aid kit.

I also have an OEM windshield sunscreen and all OEM parts for a yearly oil change that is due in July.

I have an offer for 62k from someone (presumably the guy who owns this: https://beckseuropean.com/ ).

I may just take it. I don't want to sit on this too long. Thoughts? Realistically I never expected more than 63-64. Do I want to hold out over $1k?

I think so too. Let’s see how that goes. He wants the paint measured and I don’t have a meter and he’s offering to send his. I may just buy one.

Any recommendations? They seem to be <$100 or >$500.

This is what I have ($65ish)

It's not great, but is pretty consistent and seems to be good enough

Only you can answer that question.

Once I've emotionally "moved-on" from a car, I mostly just want it gone. If the transaction feels right, holding out for another $1k on a $62k deal wouldn't be something I'd do. If I were selling to someone that I felt was just going to flip the car I would probably hold out.

Car is tentatively sold. I put the car on the lift and sent phots of the underside and and close up photo of the scuff. He seems happy. He is willing to wire the funds and then send for transport to AZ. He just wants a photo of the title.
