Possible 2017 X3 CPO purchase

etinifni · 06-19-2018, 06:13 PM

I am looking to trade in my 2012 328i f30 on a 2017 X3 xDrive28i. The asking price seems a little high being that it is old generation and I am looking for advice on this model. What do you guys think?

I can't help but think that you'd be missing out on so many design, technology, and safety improvements that were introduced with the latest generation X3. Have you test driven a 2018 model as a comparison? The resale values would likely be higher in the future too, given the redesign. At least with a test drive, you'd know what you'd be missing out on.

Also, on AutoTrader, there are 2018 X3s at the $42k price range as well, and with similar options as the 2017 model, around $48k.

Agree with @abcsoup

Maybe a dealer vehicle, loaner or demo model if a lower price is what you’re looking at paying to be able to get into gen 3

Too high. There are quite a few cpo g01 x3’s now in my city that are between $40-45k. I agree with others that the new design is such an upgrade to the previous bodydtule that it is worth the search for the new design.

It’s too high. If you go to cars.com there is a handful of 2018 X3 with good pricing.
