When is it a good time to sell my 2012 X5M?

guys,

i see the new x5 out around town and pretty soon the new x5m will follow. i really enjoy my ride and not in a rush to sell but if there is a right time to sell, when is it?

any advise or suggestions will greatly be appreciated.

thanks,
john

Before the new one comes out and before you develop a history of problems by taking it in to the dealer too many times to fix them Spring is a good time for selling.

My buddy thinks I should list it. I would but there isn't anything out there that interests me. I need a SUV for the kids. My neighbor recently got a Porsche Cayenne Turbo so don't want to get the same SUV as him. Just wanted to see what the forum guys thought.

I'm almost certain you're the guy I made a thread about a month or two ago! If you live around the City Center area, did you park at the Lifetime a Fitness garage? I remember seeing one with those wheels. Great looking ride! We should put together a little meeting for Houston X5M's, although I can only count 3-4 members here in Houston...

i go to Coffee and Cars every now and then, and I go pro around town as well on occasion. I live near I-10 and Fry, so its not too far. We should definitely set something up, taking 3 of these things to the next C&C would be dope haha.

i have a buddy who's into cars but he has a GTR, I'm sure he would be down to come as well. I can bring a few other friends too, just not with these types of cars, but they're into them for sure. whatever works, city centre is fine for me to come by because its not that far and its somewhat central. windtendo what part of town are you on?

i don't mind driving out to any location. gives me a reason to drive the x5m. citycentre is a little too busy. maybe find a place with a large parking lot and lot less traffic? any ideas?

my friends usually meet out by some burger joint or something out in katy. i think he goes out to Freddy's Frozen Custard & Steakburgers by katy mills mall. kinda out there but easy to find and large parking. we can also grab something to eat and chat. OR over by HEB @ bunker hill. not sure how they feel about cars gathering over there. OR by a starbucks, we can have our own mini coffee and cars.

what do you guys think?

I'd love to go if anyone else wants to roll out together! I saw that there's a dyno day on Friday I think and any car that dynos over 425rwhp doesn't pay

Who's down and what day?
