Questions

What is a BMW E9x M3 worth?

The median 2007–2013 BMW M3 (E9x) sold for $32,850 over the last 24 months, across 308 recorded auction sales. The middle half sold between $25,000 and $40,500, and the full range ran from $12,121 to $200,000. Mileage moves the price most: cars with 0 to 25,000 miles sold for a median of $45,694, and cars with 175,000 to 200,000 miles for $16,750.

Are E9x M3 prices going up or down?

Over the last 12 months the median sale was $35,000 across 157 sales, against $30,614 across 151 sales in the 12 months before: a change of +14.3%. That compares every sale in each period, so a change in the mileage or condition of the cars offered moves it as well as the market does.

Which E9x M3 colors are worth the most?

With mileage, sale year, model year, gearbox, body and trim held equal, Fire Orange sells for +20.3% against the average E9x M3 (32 sales). At the other end, Jerez Black sells for -5.1% (128 sales) and Jet Black sells for -4.7% (74 sales).

Is a manual E9x M3 worth more than an automatic?

Among coupes within 20,000 miles of 61,000 miles, manual cars sold for a median of $39,500 (33 sales) and automatic cars sold for a median of $34,042 (32 sales). That puts the manual $5,458 higher, or +16.0%. The valuation tool can price your own car by gearbox, mileage and year.

Where do these E9x M3 prices come from?

From 853 completed auction sales of the E9x M3 on Bring a Trailer and Cars & Bids, each a public record with photographs, mileage and a final price. Asking prices are not used. Special variants, race and project cars, branded titles, parts and museum-mileage examples are left out so they cannot skew a median.

My E9x M3 was totaled. How do I show the insurer what it was worth?

Look up your car in the valuation tool with its year and mileage, then start the Total Loss Market Valuation Report from there. It lists the comparable sales with links, itemizes every adjustment in dollars, states what your color, gearbox and trim are worth, and opens with a letter to your adjuster. The preview is free and the report is $199.
