Selling my Z4M40i...what should I expect value wise
So I really really like my 2020 Z4 but due to a D I lost my access to an SUV and my new post-Dlifestyle is hampered by having only the Z4. I have two dogs (one is 50 lbs) so its the dogs or a passenger. I have no way to take my bike or kayak out.
I am getting carmax and edmunds offer of $45,000. Seems a bit low, but when you factor in sales tax savings on a trade in of $3,000, maybe $48k isn't too bad. Do you think $50k retail is possible or am I wasting my time?

To me, a major factor in determining the value of a used car is the mileage and how much time remains on the warranty.
Also, have you considered listing it privately which I know is a PIA but you will be paid more for the Z4? |

Try WeBuyAnyCar, if there is one near you. You have to look online, their physical locations are not large or easy find. But, they have a broker network that usually pays more than anyone else. I sold my Mustang GT for $5k more than CarMax offered. As mentioned, mileage and any remaining warranty, will be big factors. Most people will not buy a BMW without a warranty or CPO. Without any warranty, you may not get more than what you have been offered.

Car has a clean Carfax Report.
Regular warranty through May 2024 Its a cpo car with cpo warranty through May 2025 (not sure if it can be transferred). Mileage is 29,400 and going up slowly. Assuming I can get $48k from dealer with sales tax, can I get much more selling private?

Yeah, from my experience different companies are all over the board when doing this. I reached out to everyone I could find to get the best price. I wouldn't look at one low offer as the market being bad.

Speaking of auctions, there is always BAT. Z3/Z4 models do well there. |

I agree and based on what WeBuyAnyCar offered, I'd say the Carmax offer is about as good as it gets.

The market is always so volatile, last Sept, a 2019 S30i was going for $50k

Sold mine last year for 58k (2020 15k miles) but that was in the middle of the shortage.

Values are trending down fast. If you are going to make a change I would not linger over it. The '24 LCI's are already in the mix which will further depress the originals value.
