E46 coupe value, opinons please

[claude]

I need to know what is the realistic selling price or value of a 2003 e46 coupé m sport 318ci 98.000 miles and fsh with leather and full history, i cannot gauge any accuracy from done deal or carzone because they vary from 3000 to 5900. any advice please as im possibly selling the e46 and would like to know what you would "really get for it"?.

Maybe start at 4k and take it from there

[claude]

Really
I was offered 3600 for it
Not sure if it was good or not
Car is really immaculate as I have it 7 years now

Is it pre or post facelift claudio I cant find your thread on it

[claude]

its prefacelift gar,
only found one pic from an old thread

so if i got that kind of money i should take it ?

if so why do these dreamers on carzone ask 5k ?
whats the point?

[Gar]

5k is very optimistic and iv noticed the cars on carzone sit there for an awful long time id stand by my first guesstimate maybe start at 4,250 for a few days and if no calls drop the price bit by bit

3600 is definitely worth considering for a quick pain free sale though
