Every price is negotiable.  The worst they can say is no.  Toyota has their Access pricing for their new cars but that is starting to lose momentum with it's legality issues.  With used cars, negotiations are a lot more flexible...especially when you looking into buying a car that is pretty common.  It's all about suppy and demand.  The 330 is a popular car but there are a few of them to be found so if you think the price is high, negotiate.  If they say no....go look for another one.

i would like my dads 330i but the damn thing is automatic, theres only one with the configuration i want and its in vancouver, its selling for 39,000 which im hoping to lower to around 32,000-35,000. i can settle with the AWD version with automatic but i dont like paying the extra for gas
The most wanted cars of my uber uber list
4th generation supra with twin turbo which is the most affordable/practical on the list
If i had all the money in the world, i would buy an army of Supras and crash them into the tree stumps

there are alot of 320i and 325i and even those are pretty high, but i think what makes the 330i more in demand is that not alot of people buy the 330i compared to the other 2 mostly because its out of their budget.  

if i was living in the states i can pick one up easily for about 20,000USD which is roughly 27,000-29,000CDN

dont know why canadians sell cars for more

If you don't like the price...wait for another one to come to market.  

Just a quick search:

They aren't that hard to find.

wow
31,900 for a 330i with the options i want is really cheap even for the amount of kilometers on it. the only tihng im wondering is, is that the real leather or the leatherette because ive seen alot of people putting their 320i for sale with leather which isnt even available for that model.  

the price is right, i think im gonna go check it out when i have the time.  

the only beef i have with a private sale is both parties might not know how to properly sell the car, which is why id prefer dealers, but either way ill gonna try to find the time to check it out.  

thanks big time mdxtasy
