Purchasing 13' 328i M sport coupe

maxdylan · 08-20-2016, 08:16 AM

How's it going guys, I've been looking around for a new car (new to me) for the past few weeks and I finally think I found the right one, and wanted to see what you guys think its worth. It is a 2013 328 M sport coupe alpine white with red leather with 28,000 miles. It still has a full 12 months on the factory bumper to bumper warranty. looks like I'm getting it for $21,000 plus taxes sounds like a good deal to me but never bought a BMW so i figured I'd ask the experts! The reason the trigger hasn't been pulled yet is becasue originally i went in to see a '13 sedan same color combo but the guy sold it before I got there. So he mentioned he just received a coupe but its at the body shop, he didn't want to show it to me but I got him to take me there. the damage wasn't bad at all it was just a front bumper. The previous owner hit a curb while parking and ripped the front bumper off. The car should be finished in the next day or two then I will give him payment after I get it checked out. Other then that the car is clean no accidents and one owner.

SO WHAT YALL THINK THIS IS WORTH!

Plastic bumper cover is really a non-issue if no other damage was done. Price is also pretty good for that mileage.

Do note though that a 2013 sedan is the F series with a turbo charged 4 cylinder. The 2013 e92 has a NA 6 cylinder motor.

Yes, Im aware of that. I honestly still haven't drove the 328 yet. I actually leased a cla250 which was also a turbo 4 cyl. Wasn't a big fan of the lag, are the 6 cylinders good engines? Going to take it for a test drive soon. Was hoping for something a little faster but cant see spending the same amount of money on an older 335 and having to worry about reliability issues. This car is super clean on the inside looks and smells new.

It's no where near as fast as the 335 or even the 228 but it's plenty quick.
