Hey guys - I am thinking of buying an used e90 from the Manheim auction in PA in the next couple of months. From what I've gathered from comments on this forum, good deals can still be had but one has to be pretty careful picking up a car from an auction. It does bother me that I'm going to have to trust another person to potentially pick out my car for me, so I'm weighing of the price difference if worth going the Manheim route, or if I should just pay a bit extra to a dealer and actually get to see/drive the car beforehand.

To that end, would someone that has access to the Manheim auctions post what 06-07 325, 328 (sedan), or 330's are going for? I'm looking for black, monaco, SG or Titanium with under 30k miles.

Thanks in advance.

If you are working with a dealer who will buy the car for you and charge $500 for their services, you should already have this information from previous auction sales. This is the guide that you should be using to buy the car. I do believe Manheim auctions are opened only to dealers, correct ?

Yeah, you're right. Well I haven't gotten that far and have yet to contact the guy. I don't want to waste my time and his if the prices aren't substantially better on a Manheim vs. dealer car.
