Hang in --- price is more than fair --- there's a *** for every seat!

GLWS - I personally love the black exterior with terracotta interior. Our X3 has this combo and gets lots of compliments

If I was looking for one of these, I'd be all over it.

TC is a select audience color. Be patient.

stand firm - your price is really quite fair (if not low).

you'll get it, someone will LOVE that interior and buy for that alone. and they'll be getting a steal of a deal

+1... Stand your ground... my wife and I test drove an M3 with TC and we both loved it. I won out and bought a red on blk C2s but would have considered(potentially have bought) yours had it been available back in FEB at this price. It's all timing and finding the right customer... GLWS.

It's tough to say what a realistic price is in this economy?

6 weeks is a long time if you only got a few leads. I think Autotrader has a "count" for how many people who have searched and looked at your ad. How is that number? Re-write your ad and take better pictures if the number of "counts" is high and inquires are low. My guess is you have a unique interior color and will have to wait for the right buyer. Or you can lower your price to see if you get more leads? Shop your car around to dealers and wholesalers to get an idea of what a true wholesale number is in your area. I would even try Caramax for a buy number, you can go up from there.

Best of luck!

put an ad on cars.com and other resources. rennlist alone is not enough. your price is right. may be it will work better if you will match asking price exactly with ads in your region so car would not look offset from other offers. buyer will try to negotiate lower buy price anyway.

Spend 30 minutes of you time abd have Carmax give you a price. Carmax paid me $1,200 more for my 2008 Honda than the Porsche dealer was willing to give me on trade in.

They may not offer what you want, but then again, maybe they will.
