2011 BMW 3 Series, used · 6th generation
A fair price at 60,000 km is $13,222 to $18,537, from 34 similar cars in Ontario this month (5 already sold).
Right in line with the market. You might get a few hundred off, but there is no big overcharge here.
Hi, I am interested in the 2011 3 Series listed at $16,995. Comparable ones in Ontario have been selling between $13,222 and $18,537 at this mileage, typically around $15,879. Would you take $15,879? I can come in this week.
476 used 3 Seriess (2011 and newer) in Ontario right now. Here are the 20 most recently listed, each checked against the fair range for its own year and mileage. 2 look like good deals.
Tags use the fair range for the region selected above. Hybrids and plug-ins tend to sit above the all-powertrain range until the powertrain filter is live. Prices as listed by the dealer; no photos, no dealer-paid placement.

Before you negotiate
- Anything under $13,222 at this mileage is a good deal. Get the history report before you go.
- 5 of the 34 comparable cars sold in the last 30 days, so this range reflects real transactions, not just asking prices.
Confidence: low (2 comparable cars at this mileage). Prices are per vehicle; the same car listed at several rooftops is counted once. Sold cars are kept in because a car that sold at a price is evidence about that price.
