I'd like to think that the optioned-out 325ix will continue to fetch around 12k for a very good, average mileage, example with a lengthy history..but i think thats the top dollar for these cars. yes, most tourings are fairly resonalby price here for good examples starting at 2500 euros(.94:1 on the dollar right now), but these are your 316/318 cars. A 320 can be thrown in the same price range although with considerable more mileage or less options. Where the real money is though are factory 325 cars that were loaded..which still command pretty good money. Factor in shipping and import fees, you could possibly get a 4cyl over to the states for about $5500 all in and have a decent car that need the usual maintenance.
Now these are your run of the mill tourings. For a car to be worth it to me, it would have to have a lot going for it and the price would reflect that. I lucked out and found mine down in Munich..in great condition, low/average miles, and with quite a bit done to it that made it more desireable in my opinion. I wont disclose what I paid for it(basically paid for parts and got a free car), but I got a pretty damn good deal on it; and, if I were to ever sell it at this point in time, I'd like to think I would be able to walk away from it with $11k in my pocket.
Thats just me though, I love this little wagon and I doubt it'll be leaving my possession anytime soon.
