There is a reason it is not selling. I've sent you a PM so not to be harsh on the public forum.

Thanks for sharing the opinion. Totally respect that some people find Nav, backup camera, etc important but having been a huge car nut for 20+ years and knowing tons here in SoCal, I know there are a good percentage (especially 6MT purists) that primarily buy a car based on performance/looks/fun-to-drive and don’t care much for the tech gadgets.

Felt the need to respond publicly so people didn’t assume there was something wrong with the car. It is super clean, drives great, and needs nothing.

Correct, I had PMed that the need for back up camera, park distance, and nav are essential to many/most people, including me. There is no reason to compromise safety and convenience, especially when the driving experience is 100% not altered with that tech. Plus, the larger screen is nice. Back up camera is the law for all new cars next year.

Also, surprisingly, people may love manuals, but few are buying them...much to my chagrin as well.

Great color combo and GLWS.

Damn, there is going to be absolutely no hope when I go to sell mine...similar specs, mileage, etc for my '14 6MT m235i here in NJ - can't believe you haven't gotten any bites on this yet...the brown leather combo with the Estoril blue is killer...I spent 5 months searching for one and finally had to settle on black interior.

Good luck - I'm going to be following this!

Thanks for the kind words! Yeah, I’m pretty shocked it hasn’t sold yet too. No worries though...it’s still a blast to drive and I still enjoy it.

Why don't you just trade the car in for a AT M235/M240?

Cause dealers don’t give anywhere near fair market value on trades. It would be like throwing away $4K.

True...or maybe even more. Wholesale is down in the $25k range now. I bet dealers are offering even less than that now. Did you notice that virtually all the m235i on sale on the forums right now are in California. Very weird.

I've tried CarMax a few times in the past but not with this car. I've heard others have done ok with them but I've never gotten an offer that was anywhere close to what I ultimately sold the car for.

Where would be the best place to post a BMW for sale? This site you think?

I know it's been a while, but I love that interior and exterior combo. I'm not too well versed on the 2 series specs, what is that interior color called? I know BMW made a couple different browns--terra and saddle but this looks darker than the terra I've seen but maybe its the lighting or my computer?

Looking to buy a 2 series in Estoril blue on brown or oyster and I love this color.
