A 2012 BMW 7-Series in the Canadian market sits at a median of $9,777. For a flagship luxury sedan that once stickered north of six figures, that's where depreciation lands a car this age. The typical asking range runs from $9,500 to $17,500, so most examples cluster right around that median with a longer tail on the upper end.
Median mileage is 201,000 km. That's a lot of road, and it explains why the floor of the range hugs the median so tightly. Cars near that mileage anchor the bottom of the market. The ones asking closer to $17,500 are almost certainly the lower-km, cleaner-history examples.
What to actually pay
If you're looking at anything priced near the $9,500 low, treat it as a high-mileage car and budget accordingly. Spending toward the top of the range should buy you meaningfully fewer kilometres than that 201,000 km midpoint. Anything asking above $17,500 is outside the normal band for this year, and the seller needs to justify it with condition or history.
One thing worth flagging on the demand side. We've flagged just 1 deal on this model year in the last 90 days. That points to a quiet, patient market rather than a fast-moving one, which means a buyer has room to negotiate and wait for the right car instead of chasing the first listing.
