2011 BMW 5 Series, used · 6th generation
A fair price at 60,000 km is $13,537 to $17,632 (estimated), from 9 similar cars in Canada this month (1 already sold).
Right in line with the market. You might get a few hundred off, but there is no big overcharge here.
Only 1 2011 5 Series listed near 60,000 km, so this is estimated from the nearest listed mileage (100 to 150k km, 2 cars) using how 6th generation 5 Series prices fall with mileage.
Hi, I am interested in the 2011 5 Series listed at $16,995. Comparable ones in Canada have been selling between $13,537 and $17,632 at this mileage, typically around $15,584. Would you take $15,584? I can come in this week.

Before you negotiate
- Anything under $13,537 at this mileage is a good deal. Get the history report before you go.
- Stepping back one year to a 2010 saves about $5,016 for the same generation. Worth a look if mileage is similar.
- 1 of the 9 comparable cars sold in the last 30 days, so this range reflects real transactions, not just asking prices.
Confidence: low (estimated, 2 cars at the nearest 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.
