How much did you pay for your used M3?

Use autotempest.com

I'm looking in the same places, basically. I also do CarsDirect, occasionally Autolist (though I'm really started to mistrust their customers), and statewide searches on CL.

Up until a month ago, I lived on these searches and knew every car available in great detail. I finally had to take a break. After I get a couple of business deals completed, I'm going to get involved again. By then the cold weather will be at our door - at least up north - and people will be faced with either selling their cars before the winter dead time, or storing them for next spring. Traditionally, the E36 and E46 M3 met this pattern and good deals could be had in the fall. I notice that last winter, the E92 actually rose towards December, so I'm interested in seeing where the prices go this year.

Thank you, I’ll try those too. I feel like the prices will drop down a bit coming closer to 2019

Autotempest will surf all the listing services for you and aggregate the results.

If you have an iPhone and install the apps for every car listing service that offers one, clicking on a car you find in an Autotempest search will bring the actual listing up from whatever service its posted on. For instance, I click on a car Autotempest found in CarGurus, the Carguru app opens and goes to the proper ad. I'm pretty sure it'll send your search terms to each app as well, so you can fine tune your search for each service.

Possibly...but I don’t think they will, look at E46 M3 for example, somewhat just recently prices started to go up for a low mileage ones. I think E92 platform will get there but it’s still too early for it..that’s just my opinion ofcourse

With the comp package, extra wheels, eisenmann exhaust and a small amount of cert warranty, not a bad price for a 2013 with 2 owners. How's the maintenance record?

It’s been maintained at the local bmw dealer with just regular inspections

Car is also lowered on Kw sleeve kit, cf high kick spoiler, brakes and tires were replaced less then a year ago at the dealer.

(Purchased 8/31)

2013 e92 m3
45k miles
One owner
Alpine white
ZCP
6MT
Manual full leather seats
$38k sticker at dealer

Wow....either you all are paying WAY over sticker or crazy hah!

2013 M3 Alpine White
$35K
27K Miles
2 Owners and both took stupid care of the car - I have a manilla folder with about 50ish records.

But I'm usually the exception. I'll travel to the midwest/wherever and drive most my cars back (MD) to find amazing deals. Fly out, do final inspection of car, and drive back over a day or two.

I was searching for my M3 for about 9-12 months before I found the perfect deal, so I guess a lot of patience.

You nailed it. Patience pays off. There are a couple of cars I wished I had gone for in the same time period, but they didn't match my needs precisely. Ultimately I will land a deal like yours.

Nice and good luck!

I picked up my Silver '08 E93 DCT with 71K miles for 19,500. Based on the average prices I was seeing and the mileage and condition... this was a good deal.

$19k? How much was the asking price?

Did it have 18 inch wheels, what packages/options?

It's stock (18" wheels). Nothing changed or upgraded on it. Had it inspected at BMW dealership and it checked out great. The Top and components are great, The Clutch is great, Tranny solid, engine runs and sound great, suspension good, frame great (no accidents, etc.), driveline good, wheels have minimal to no curb rash, tires were around 60% and needed rebalancing, but I was putting some Conti DWS's on so I got the balancing taken care of. All in all, for a 10 year old M3 Convertible, I honestly got a very nice deal. Te exterior isn't mint... there's a few tiny knicks here and there, but nothing visible without "close" inspection.

Asking price was 19,500. They had just lowered it to that. The Jaguar/Landrover dealership I purchased it from had it on their lot for longer than they needed it to be. For where I live, this car is averaging 22-23 from private sellers and similar ranges up to 24/25 from dealerships.

2012 e92 M3
48K miles
All options save for ZCP
19" Forged 220s
2 owners with clean history.
Carmax bought with 30 day warranty

$32,998 plus all associated taxes.

Paint had been through a lot through Florida, but the car has overall been in fantastic shape through ownership of 4 months. Already put around 1.5K miles with several 'enthusiastic' cruises with the local CCA clubs.
