Good Deal on 745Li??

Hey fellow owners...as many of you may already know from my previous post, I totaled my 745i last week (3/27). Now I'm looking to get another one, need your thoughts...

2004 745Li with 111k on it for $14k

I understand it's not exactly "low" mileage, but my budget is $14-$15k. The carfax looks great! 1 owner and at BMW for service 2 times a year.

I think you should get something else. you already had a 7 why do you want the same thing again?

Oh that's a different story I thought you had it longer.

Well my 7 is costing me around 13k with all the upgrades included 2005 74k miles. But I am doing everything on it so if you like the one in the pix then go for it

That's a good price. From the research I've done, they seem cheaper on the west coast.

I wouldn't even consider a 7 without the comfort seats.

I thought the same thing. From what I've researched, the body is the same from 2002-2005.
