The median 2001 BMW 540i Sport sold for $14,250 in 2024, against $16,250 in 2020. Each row is the median of the verified sales recorded in that calendar year, so it moves with the mix of mileages and options that came to market as well as with the market itself.
| Year | Median sale | Sales |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | $14,250 | 3 |
| 2022 | $14,000 | 5 |
| 2020 | $16,250 | 3 |
Years with fewer than three verified USD sales are omitted — a one-sale “median” is a single car, not a market.
