    BMW Center Console Armrest/Cup Holder

    I just picked up this new BMW Armrest/Cupholder (one that comes with the BMW mug) and it is really nice. A very fine piece of BMW accessory indeed. However, judging by a couple of threads, it seems I turn a nice profit by reselling it; mainly on Ebay. Furthermore, it seems this armrest can't even be found on Ebay right now.

    So I face a dilemma, keep and enjoy or resell for a nice profit which would be used for other needed and long awaited mods to the car....? Shi'ite!!!

    I say use it yourself. On my long 7 hour drives to and from school I really wish I had an armrest, let alone a cup holder. It gets old holding up a drink while your driving.

        I kind of want to keep it just for the cool factor, as a collector's item more than anything. I don't eat or drink in my car so it would solely play the role of an armrest. According to a previous FS thread, someone mentioned it could be sold for $300 plus on Ebay. If that's really the case, I will more than likely sale it.

          Put it on eBay. Collect the $300. Use $100-150 of that to buy a used one from eBay or anywhere else. If your car is not mint, you don't need a brand new mint Trac-Top armrest...but someone out there with a mint E30 would probably want that thing and would pay good money for it.

          I have one in my iX that is used and has some wear on the front edge of it; I'd sell it to you for around $100 I think.

                damn, that thing sold within hours. I feel like I should have asked for more but humility is in order; I made a ridiculous profit.....

                      you are right, the cup holders are shi'ite. I can't believe that thing actually sales for that much. I would imagine some company could easily make a knock-off of that thing for less than $20. And that's with a sturdier cup holder.... One has to ask themselves why hasn't anyone done it yet...

                            Would you if you could make over $200 by reselling it?

                              I had one on my car... damn thing drove me nuts. i took it out and haven't missed it at all. I don't eat or drink in my car anyway, and if I do happen to stop at a coffee stand I usually just cram it between the center console and ebrake handle.
