Is anyone able to get the NADA value of their E90. I'm trying to get the value of my car but they are showing N/A as the price when all is configured. Thanks!!

[canucklion]

haha, for a sec, I thought you were saying you're getting nada, zip, crappy trade-in value for your E90

I would guess that not enough E90s have gone through the auctions in order for NADA to give accurate figures.

Trying to determine at what point it is considered totalled? Have you found out how much $$ damages for your accident?

[thd13]

Not yet. But my insurance company told me when the damages accumulate over 75% of the NADA and surveyed value of the car, they will total the vehicle.

Im not sure bout NADA, but I recently found out the Kelly Blue Book 06 Trade-in, Private Party and Retail prices of our 2006 e90s are out and the prices are pretty fair. KBB has been my norm is selling and buying, NADA is pretty much used for Bank loans and to assess us taxes due the State or DMV, w/c is not fair I feel

At kbb.com, I used Private Party Value at "Good" Condition and the nos. I got, Im pretty happy with.
"Excellent" condition is seldom used in the real world, however much we value our cars.

I say hold on to these treasures for awhile, since you know the 328i/335i 2007 prices will be quite an increase from our 325i/330i 06 prices. Im guesssng because of that, folks who like to be seen on a new e90 body style, but cant fork out the high 30s and 40s cash for them will definitely consider our 2006 as a compromise, but lets not give it away for Donut prices

And whos cares about HP/Torque difference, most of these folk hardly know and care, for the matter.

I've look at cars.com and hardly did I see a e90(325i) in the high 20s, and e90-330 in the very lows 30s.

Haha, sorry about the scare. I wasn't even thinking about that when writing the title.

Yikes I just did KBB on my car and selected Good and Private Party Value like ase2dais mentioned. They are saying I could sell my car for $2190 less than I paid for it last year. I would have thought it would have depreciated more than that!

[thd13]

Wow! That's real nice! How many miles do you have (but shouldn't matter too much)? I put my car in with "Excellent Condition" and am still getting about $6-7K less than what I paid for my car.

In my experience no one will use "excellent" no matter how excellent your car is. Use "good" for a real-world number.

[thd13]

Thanks, I understand. I was just using "excellent" to put emphasis on how low the value of my car is.

[DFW_M]

So, I paid $32,400 + tax (total about $35k) for my car 16 months ago (9500 miles on it, not a scratch inside or out).
KBB gives me the number (Good Cond.) of $29,420 for trade-in and 31,785 for the Private Sale.
I would think they are off by about $2k.

[Gitta]

I paid $38,870 for my e90 330i (see sig for options) which listed for around $43k. I have less than 8900 miles on my car and KBB gave me a price of $36,680 with my options and mileage for private party sale. I didn't include the tax and fees.
