2014 BMW 535i As-Is Value?

Trying to figure out what my car could realistically sell for in Pennsylvania.

2014 BMW 535i (F10) ~130k miles (Black on black)
Originally bought used in California years ago

Pros:
Somewhat newer brakes
New coolant reservoir
Still drivable on freeway/highway

Cons:
Haven’t done the PA inspection/emissions stuff yet since moving
3 front left headlight malfunction warnings
Can still drive at night using low beam setting
Recently got a parking brake error
Car doesn’t accelerate as fast anymore, but still drives and gets on freeway fine

Trying to get realistic opinions on value if sold as-is in PA.

Cosmetic condition is good overall. What would you guys list it for and what do you think it would actually sell for?

I already met with my recruiter in April/2026 and told him about my recent thc use and a 1-time use of mushrooms for fun in February/2026.

I am assuming my recruiter at our first meeting would have told me that mushrooms are DQ.

Currently I am waiting to clear THC out of my body, so I don't show a positive thc test at MEPS in June/July.

My questions are:

  1. Am I disqualified from the air force for the recent mushroom use? Or is that only if it comes up positive in MEPS.

  2. Will I be able to get a waiver for the 1-time mushroom use?

I am a 6'0 24-year-old 165lbs male, very low body fat. I have smoked occasionally from age 20-24 but it has been pretty recent in the past 1-2 months.

I meant my recruiter 4/20 and smoked 4/19 last.

I assume I will pass the 15 ng tests soon since I am very low body fat.

Do you guys think I should take the 15 ng/ml until I piss clean or has anyone still failed MEPs even with passing the 15 ng/ml THC tests?

I am not sure if I should wait 60-90 days or trust the negative DrugExam 15 ng tests. I would rather ship sooner than later.

My plan is to pass 3 of the at home 15 ng tests before I head into MEPS.
