    Default Contemplating a sale...what's it worth?

    Well,

    Son #2 just turned 16. There's a '97 Avalon with 108K needing brakes for his use. I've got a '97 F150 Supercab XLT to pull the boat. The wife has an '04 Avalon for her needs.

    I'm also putting 4-5 K miles on my 1150GS.....so the '95 530i seems to be collecting dust. I've seriously only put 15K on it in the last 2.5 years since I found it and brought it home. It's sitting with just under 74K at this point.

    EVERYTHING works.

    It's all stock with no problems, I have records from the PO (first owner) a Carfax when I bought it and records of my own.

    How the H... do I go about pricing it and selling it........?

    Comments solicited. Thanks

    You don't want to sell the Avalon and give your son the Bimmer?

    If not, then just go on Autotrader and see what other similar 530s are fetching. '95 is a great year too.

    I'd say $6-ish.

    After this wet noodle whipping, I'm just going to drive the Bimmer for another 6 months and decide in the spring..........by then it might have 78K on it...........



    Thanks for the thoughts.
