bought the 07 Tl-s about a year ago, 15000 on it and i owe 31000. the 535 you can finally get a AWD with a clutch.

thinking about trading her in...i know ill get racked over the coals but they have a good lease out now for about 650. right know im payin 720. just curious what ya think the hit would be...im thinking around a trade in 27000.

just curious...i usualy do this 2 years before i trade em in..

 

wait you bought the TL a year ago and upgrading already? nice

you owe 31k? not nice

wait so ur paying 720 a month on the TL?! or on a 535 that you already own?

 

535i=turbo=hot as balls.

 

so the real question is how much you can get for the 07 TL-s.

1) try to sell the tl privately
2) if that doesnt pander out, see what carmax will give you
3) last resort should be the dealer.

 

The 535 is without a doubt a fine car, but in the end is it worth it? You're going to lose alot of money, but if it's what you want,

I agree with Lee, dealer=last resort.

 

sell the type s privately...get the cash and lease the beamer. Engine wise the 5 is way better but i still prefer the look of the 3G. Something about the body and shape makes me feel good inside.

 

idk about you guys but i think almost anyone would take the 535i over the TL-S without a thought lol.

those striated LED tail lights are amazing..

 

Don't forget to factor in more fuel cost and higher insurance. Audio system sucks.
Be sure to lease. By the end, you'll be ready for the RL.

 

I drove a 545 before, it's a great car, but 2x the price.
The TL-S is a lot more fun to drive plus you'll have a lot of extra cash left over

 

535i is $$$$$$ Why not checkout a 335xi sedan, sport pkg. leather stick for $45k.

 

335xi sedan manual, leather. OH can't forget MUST HAVE sport pkg.
