I certainly would make an effort to prepare the car for sale in the spring, more eyes, bigger pockets, etc.
A dealer, wholesaler, etc. is not going to see huge value in the car and will ultimately offer you ~$3K under where they expect to sell it at. If you are preparing it for that type of sale, give it a thorough wash outside, inside and in the engine bay.
If you want to try private sale start digging up maintenance history, a recent Carfax report and good quality pictures. These forums, BMW classifieds or Facebook Marketplace will be your best chance of finding an enthusiast buyer. Since the car is 10+ years old an informed buyer would also want to know the status of bushings, belts, trim, etc. A little bit of effort can go a long way.
