Post Pulled the trigger today

After going back and forth for a couple weeks now, I made the drive up to Rhode Island today ( 4 hours ) and back ( 4 hours ) to pick up the following:

2007 335i Alpine White/Terra, 6spd, sport, premium, cold, ambient light, adaptive xenon, etc..... 11k miles and CPO'd for 6 years and 100k miles. The deal was to good to pass up. Paid $36,900 and they gave me $11k for my 06 Corolla. I now have the s2000 listed for sale. Had to consolidate my three cars into two ( 335 and wifes subie ), so the S has to go.

I know. That's why I spent 8 hours driving today. No problems with the vehicle. Was a two year lease that they guy turned in early on an x5. This car is exactly what I was looking for. I did not want to spend $45k on a new one as an 07 CPO is a much much better deal in my opinion.

Even the local comparables asking more weren't CPO'd. I highly recommend BMW of Newport Rhode Island. The entire process was conducted internet up until today.

Great cars and CPO'd BMW's are definitely better deals than buying new...they also carry a longer warranty than new which I find odd. I have an 07 Titanium Silver w/black equipped very smilarly and they are great cars....I have 10K miles on mine and it hasn't had any issues and my car is 'enhanced'. The Logic 7 Sound System is great...much better than the HK 'upgraded' system that's in my E46 M3. Seats are much more comfortabel than my M3 as well...the M3 hasn't seen much road time in the last 6-8 months because the 335 is just more enjoyable to drive. Sounds like you got a really good deal too...enjoy the new car.
