Holy price tag batman! It does only have 25.5k miles on it though... Nice condition, but not worth nearly 30k...

I know that ZHPMafia.com has been good for resale prices but, wow. Not that good. Haha.

Fact is, it doesn't have the original wheels, it has a less popular (I suspect) interior combination, and, finally, the price can only be considered aspirational at best. A price drop of $8000 is warranted.

My sense suggests they know $28k is too high. But, I could see them getting $24k from the right buyer. Never doubt; there are persons who will pay up for a car like this assuming it is completely pristine, all keys and manuals, documented maintenance, etc. Accordingly, cars commanding a significant up-market price generally have the these attributes. Ultimately, and including the above assumptions, the key is waiting for the right buyer.

Tomorrow morning. 6:45 AM departure.

Wash, it could be one of those deals where the owner says: screw it. Let's see if someone is crazy enough to pay $28K. And even if they are not, maybe someone will pay $24K -- which is still overpriced.

I've been looking for a ZHP for about a month now and if the seller is a dealer it's usually priced $22,000 to $25,000 regardless of year or miles. I mostly just look at private sellers now.

I'm sure they'll get it as lots of people go to Buick dealers to purchase BMWs. I know that's my go to place. LOL!

I agree 100% Marcus. I'm personally not a fan of the light grey int, or chrome wheels...but to each their own. If it was in OEM stock condition with black/alcantara and the 135's, and maybe nav, then I might pay $20k for it. Maybe I'll go drive it this weekend haha...
