If you are seriously thinking of CPO....

Hello guys, I think buying a certified pre owned bmw is a no-brainer. You get the experience of a new car, for the price of a used car. On top of that since maintenance is free all issues will have been attended to already. My goal with this thread is to lower the average price that a bimmerpost member pays by giving them more leverage. I will be using this thread as a beta test and will appreciate all feedback and advice. Once it gets going I want everyone to know that I spent a lot of time and effort on this, I do not have a job, and if you save a couple of hundred dollars I am sure you won't mind helping me out. Rules are as follow:

Please Post:
-Zip Code
-How far you are willing to travel in miles
-Model and Year or put any
-Transmission say A M or either
-If you are having trouble deciding you can say all coupes or all suvs or any car with awd (ie 335xi, x5, x3 etc)
-If you will only buy one color or whatever include that.
-If it HAS to have an option include that

Remember an option you want may not be an option you need when you realize its gonna cost you 500 more on average.

I know I am being vague but after my first reply you will see what I mean. Thank You, and hopefully this will be a good learning experience for all

Yeh, I am sorry, maybe Mers wont get full bang for the buck. There are only 6 e90/e92/e93 M3s CPO in the whole country right now.I have included all z4m and m6 and m5 and filtered out for m3s enjoy and good luck. I cant attach xls files so change the txt extension to xls and then open with excel.

PS I higly recommend this method:

Ignorance is Bliss. Who would pay 300 for a excel sheet? On the other hand would you work long and hard to help people without getting paid. I am offering a service and one that I feel is worthwhile to people. Now if I am wrong guys just say the word and I'll disappear. Thank You.

Interesting facts, there are 4,034 3series for sale in the country, 1036 within 500 miles and with an automatic transmission. There were only 33 335xi's but 100 330xi's I have included all and filtered out for 335xi and I believe anything with premium has heated seats by default?? Correct me if I am wrong Thanks. Please follow directions from my last post.

Willing to try this out for a family member:

78750, 500mi, 335i E90/92 , Auto.


Few reservations though:

Pardon me if mistaken but all you plan to do is provide us with a list of CPO cars that match our requirements? I could do most of that here {http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Content/CPO/ModelSearch.aspx} and the rest by visiting the selling dealer's website if a certain car piques my curiosity.

The thing is, if we do save a few hundred quid buying something from your list instead of my local, we would have spent that money going to wherever that car is anyway. Sympathies on your redundancy but i don't think this would work well.

I appreciate the feedback. I prepped your request I was hoping the all in one page solution would work better for people.You cant put vehicles in order by sports package and premium package on bmwusa.com

There were only 5 328i with black interior and sport package in your area. You may want to remove some of the filters I set and have a look around. PS What the f*** are CA dealers smoking charging 56000 for a 328i???????

Since people have developed an affinity for fact here are a few for you...
-There were 1340 3-Series within 500 miles of 91765
-158 were 335i's
-22 of which are convertibles (sad)
-29 Matched your description

Just as an FYI I have Office 2007 and it allows me to do multiple filters. Other versions will not so sorry.

For a person with upwards of 2000 posts you sure haven't started many useful threads. Wait 19 threads, 0 useful. and about 60 percent of your post looks like what you said above. And let me see if I get this right, you were taking delivery of an e90 in 2007, and you still dont have it soooo..... Ship got lost?? BTW FYE
