Default Buying Advice

I was hoping some people with first hand knowledge could weigh in with some advice. I'm trading in my 2008 bmw 328i with 105k miles. I've decided on the 2014/15 is350 f sport. Their are two near me that tick most of what I want.

First option : 2015/obsidian/red interior
30k miles, no nav, no ML, heated and ventilated seats.

Second Option: 2015/nebula, red
42k miles, nav, has ML, heated and ventilated seats.

any insight or advice is appreciated

what are the price difference? regarding the price i would jump right away for the nebula with nav/ml, ML is a must for me, all my other cars have their signature sound system.
I am pretty sure its a rear wheel drive since your in FL, ML are hard to come by, depending on which coast you are on. When i was looking for my CPO it took nearly 8 months to find mine with NAV/ML AWD which are super rare, At the time only 5 cars came up on my full search within the US, 2 had accidents 2, was across the US way too far and 1 was 5 hour drive and i jump on it right away.

The black is with 30k miles is $24,900.
Nebula gray with 42k miles is $25900.
So, is the mark levinson system and nav worth 12k miles and $1k essentially.

well for 1k is well worth it cause the package alone is worth more than 1k, but mileage wise not so much. If mileage is not an issue then by all means go for it, see if they can drop the price a bit to make it worth your while.
