Looking at buying a 650I is this a good deal?

So looks like I am going with a used 650I, I found a like new 650I with 3,800miles and bang and olufsen system, m sport, executive, etc for $68K. Put the deposit down and going to go look at it on friday.

Looks like a great deal. Hate to see prices fall so far so fast...

I don't know where the car is located but make sure you check the service records to make sure it wasn't a lemon or anything before purchase. Also do the math on a lease of a 2015 vs. the depreciation of this one over 3 years. Remember, the prices of more expensive cars falls the quickest in the first 3 years so this one still has 2 years of depreciation. For example you can buy a 2010 650i convertible for $20k these days so if you're gonna lose $40k either way, wouldn't you rather lose it on a 2015 driving the newest possible with no maintenance or warranty worries? Just how I look at buying vs. leasing.

Auctions are fetching around that so it looks like a pretty good deal if it checks out in person.

It is a nice car - sticker looks to have been $102,400. The RWD coupes do not hold their value so it is a great buy. And unlike nmstough's "awesome deal GC", this one has LED lights

Also has...
Exec Package
M Sport
Active Cruise
and B&O

Went to see the car today and I didn't like what I saw. Interior leather (doors, center console) had lots of wear and passenger door and rear bumper had a deep scratch. I didn't go forward with the deal but went down the street and purchased this one. Love the interior but no BO . Many people on the forums says BO is not worth it but I wanted it badly because of coolness factor. Decided to go with overall car condition and this car is in mint condition inside and out, very happy.

Beautiful car. She's got so much going for her. Don't worry about the B&O. Enjoy the sound of that V8 instead!!

I guess that is why it was priced so low

The B&O is really nice -but like you said, mostly from the coolness perspective. The sound is good, but not mind blowing. They have fixed the base stereo in the 2015s (HK standard now) and I probably would have gone with that had I ordered.

You still got a great looking car for a great price. Enjoy!

PS - the B&O in the Audi is almost double the price and sounds even worse!

Way better wheels on the one you got too :-)
(I might be biased though, I have the same ones)
