I LOVE MY A/C, but circumstances require me to sell it.

2008 3.5SE, CVT, Percision Gray, options are VDC, Bluetooth and Alumunum Kickplates, 9500 miles.

My aftermarket parts are also posted.

What do you think a good price will be and should I sell it with the parts or put it back to stock?

nope, he's got the premium package with VDC... you should get ~ 25K for that... with only 9500 miles too!

If it's fully loaded, Prem + Tech, GPS, leather, etc. I'd say $25 is the going price...

I don't have the premium package. The Bluetooth is aftermarket.

I'll make the exhaust and rear sway bar stock, but it's not worth it to take off the Eibachs.

I'm hoping to get about 21,000. The Dealership was going to give me 17,000.

I'm looking at a 2006 BMW 330i with 32,000 miles.

bah, keep the alty and cut back on something if you're thinking 06 330I. if your that low on cash you should be stepping into something cheaper than a bwm.

It's not the cash flow. It's the family.

I do love the new maxima, but i'm trying to keep the price of the new vehicle in the lower 20's.

the new maxima is nice but not worth it in my opinion. i saw a nice one the other day at my dealership for $40,000!!! you could go 330i OR you could get a 05 545i (04 was the start of the new body style but its best to get 1 year after the next gen)... 545i is quicker then the A/C with more room and looks nice.... or if you really wanted to go all out, you could get a used E55 AMG that would be insanely fast and still under 30k if you look for a good deal.

oh i just saw that you said LOW 20's lol well the E55 is out but you could always go with a E500, my dad and a bunch of my friends have em.... very nice and fast... or a 545i (which is a tad bit faster) or the 330i you were talking about

I am stuck on the BMW and an '05 545 would be nice, BUT for some reason BMW is offering 0.9% financing only on their 2006's.

It looks like it will be a 2006 330i, sports package, premium package, 32000 miles for $22,000.

Sounds pretty close to a break-even deal, money-wise. But how did you get VDC on the A/C without the Premium/Leather package?

I believe in the US VDC is an option of its own, but in Canada is only comes in the package.

That is correct. My only factory options were: VDC, Aluminum Kickplates, and Floormats.

they have the 09 maximas going for 26k over here now and the 350z for 24k but im sure they are just the base models. im hoping the 370z will get like that by the end of the year

i was checking out the 370Z at my local dealership.... guy said they got a crappy insurance policy on it and you got to be 25 to test drive it and i'm only 20 so he just took me for a ride lol he said they'll get a new insurance policy on the car soon... it was a nice car though. the only thing i didn't like is that when i was sitting in the driver seat my right knee was pushed into the dash.... i'm only 5'7 so tall ppl will have issues with the new Z. larger trunk though, and a much more luxurious interior

Yes, I am going to take off the RSB, Nismo cat back, and the K&N drop in.

The Eibachs will be too much of a pain in the a** to put back to stock.

I WILL KEEP EVERYTHING ON THE CAR IF SOMEONE WANTS IT FOR $21,000!

Yeah bro, for $200 eibachs, is it not worth to take them off. I left the hid lights and eibachs when I traded my altima for a 350Z.

How much do you pay for your A/C? I bought my 350z Enthusiast used with 5K miles for $21,000.

I paid $24,600 plus tax and registration.

I listed my A/C on Autotrader, Cars.com, Craigslist, and of course here on NICO. All places for $21,000. If someone fron NICO buys it I will leave all parts on and give the stock parts with it if they want. If someone from one of the other sites buys it, I will make the car stock.

It should sell quick because for the mileage (9600) I have the least priced 3.5SE A/C out there.

I am going to try to sell it locally first so I don't have to mess with shipping. I will keep you in mind though.

Sell the mods seperate, they add zero value to the car. Private Party Value in CA is 21,685. Ask 23K take 21

You would think in 4 days I would at least get ONE call. Maybe I should lower the price to 20,500.

Any psychology majors out there. Does $20,499 really make that big of a differance than $20,500?

I can't believe it, two weeks and no hits. I'm not buying anything new, I'm just going to sell the A/C and buy something when I get back from my one year deployment to Bahrain. I figured I don't want a car to sit for a year while I'm making payments.

I dropped the price to $19,999. I hope it sells before I leave, because I do NOT want to leave the task of selling it to my wife. Here's the link to my A/C in the classifieds.
