i made the purchase about two and a half years ago, it was much higher then. it was just an example of how bb doesn't necessarily dictate the value. damn ! when i purchased it b.b. was 16,500. depreciation is a *****!

The BMW is NO beast. I've beaten just about every BMW that has tried to race me. Besides e92 m3's or 335i. People underestimate the power of the GS400

Uh...pretty vague post.

How much are you looking to spend? Color preferences? Does it matter where in the country it is? Certain mileage?
