I have an opportunity to purchase from a private party an 04 330cic with only 21k miles, SMG, Dark Blue with tan interior, for about $26,500. The car looks brand new. I think it's a good price, but I'm not certain, and would like to have some opinions.
Also, while I happen to like the SMG, I'm concerned about future resale, as it seems not to be very popular, and I'm sure I'll have to find a buyer who really understands and appreciates it when the time comes to sell. This could be a problem...
The car's warranty has only a few months left, so in the event I do choose to buy it, I'd like to take it to the dealer for an in-warranty check up to ensure everything is in good working order: Will BMW do that for me in the absence of any specific issues?
Finally, are there any specific issues I should be aware of with the 04 330cic models? Should I expect a problem-free relationship with the SMG?
Thanks in advance - your replies are appreciated.
