VTGT Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I actually bought my current car through a Manheim Highline auction. I was searching for a E60 M5 for about 4 months, unfortunately I could not find the combo I wanted in good condition within my budget. They were out there, I just missed the boat a few times... I did have some opportunities to buy a few with very light cosmetic damage (front and rear bumper needed to be repaired/replaced etc.) and they were stupid cheap; I am kicking myself now for not doing it but I did not want to go through the hassle of all that at the time. Anyways, when buying from an auction keep in mind that a lot of time the car will need some servicing and/or TLC i.e. new tires, brakes, timing belt, paint touch-up etc. this can really add up on highline cars as you can probably imagine. Overall, definitely a fun experience. But can be kind of a pain in the ass and in my opinion it only really pays off if you are buying high-line vehicles i.e. BMW, Audi, Merc, etc. because they will have the largest mark up at dealerships. Not to say there are not great deals to be had on all makes and models if you are in the right place at the right time, but in general my last statement seems pretty valid after attending a few auctions. FYI, my friend charges me 5% commission on the winning bid, what is your going rate Naylor I think thats it, sorry for the long post haha Happy Bidding!

Naylor Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 i'm just going to charge 500 bucks...that covers my time (maybe) and i'm also splitting that cost with my partner. I have a mechanic lined up to do any repairs, if needed. this is really just something to help fellow members out. i posted a simple reply in a local nasioc thread in SCIC and I already have 10 guys wanting STi's...

Longitude Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 an '08 sti went for 22k today... You mean sold as that price? or just posted for sale today? --Long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 sold at that price. the average for an 08 is around 26k. The sti's hold their value a lot better than the evo's from what i've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rommel Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 what's the going price for an 04-06 M3 convertible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 in the mid twenties is what the averages are showing, keep in mind that's before auction fees, tax and license. couple of things i'm quickly learning...its hard to find one specific color or settle on an absolute price. the best thing to expect is the car to cost right around private party value, but including the tax. so, you typically save a couple grand (if buying from a personal owner) when buying a car that's in the 20k range...you'll save closer to 3-4 grand vs. buying at a dealership. another thing is that Subies really hold their value in the auctions, pretty impressive.

MiniStiGuy Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 what are 07+ Tundra's with the 5.7L and Limited going for? Not the Crew Cab though. Just the regular extended Cab. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 g, you are looking at an avg of 26-30k for crew and 20-23k for double cab...those were the only 2007 trims i could find with a 5.7L. those price ranges represent avg-above mileage.

MiniStiGuy Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Ok thanks. A guy at my work got a 2008 with 36k limited with 5.7L for 23k. What a great deal he got. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor Posted July 19, 2010 Author Share Posted July 19, 2010 that's a really good deal. when did he buy it? also, those prices are for a 4wd too. the avg. for an 08 double cab w/ 40k miles shows 28,950 and that's before auction costs, dealer mark up, yadda yadda...

MiniStiGuy Posted July 20, 2010 Share Posted July 20, 2010 He bought it about 3 weeks ago from a dealer down here. Its the 2WD version which is all that I want. It was priced at $28k but he got them down to $23k on it. OEM HID's Rx330 Retro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor Posted July 20, 2010 Author Share Posted July 20, 2010 just double checked 2wd and they average 24-26k...he got a smokin' deal. especially, if it was 23k out the door. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew888 Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 I'm seeing 26k for the last body style M3 low mi. and $40k for an M5 with about 60k mi.

VTGT Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I'm seeing 26k for the last body style M3 low mi. and $40k for an M5 with about 60k mi. Hmmmm....M5, M5 Get the M5 like I should have. If you are buying one without getting an aftermarket warranty try and get a 2007 with a 6-speed manual. The SMG repair is about $15k. If you haven't test driven one, don't......unless you plan on buying one because it is that fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
