Ok, I need an experts oppionion and thought u guys would be best to ask. For 25k out the door, what kind of used 350 could I get? Preferbly buying from a dealer or other established lot (or should i consider buying from an individual?) any info would be great please

 

go to carmax.com

that should give you a good comparison

 

the prices on carmax are outrageous it seems, i could get a new one for what they are asking on most of those

 

i am not saying get it there, i am saying use it as a comparison because different regions have different prices

 

Dude, you could probably get an enthusiast used, or talk down a touring without nav. I asked the same questioon 2 weeks ago, so i know. Carmax are some bitches

 

also, i am not buying untill late Augest, early sept. if that makes a diff

 

For $25k out the door from a dealer, I would say a 03 base or enthusiast. Maybe a performance with higher miles but a Touring would probably be a stretch.

 

There's a guy here in Milwaukee that's selling his practically brand new Enthusiast for around 27k... not even 1800 miles on it I think.

 

Amnesiac19 - When you do buy one, dont do it in FLorida. I did my shopping for my performance on the whole east side, from NH to FL, and by far the dealers in Florida were the most pricey and inflexible. They have no trouble selling sports cars where it never snows.

Do this: Give a dealer up in the N-E a call. Se somethin up, fly in, whatever. Break it in on the 1200 miles back to FL. Then, you have your car, ya saved a bunch, and your past the break-in period.

PS - I got my 04 performance in CT for 500 over invoice. Ask any dealer in FL if he can even spell "invoice"

 

Buy an 03. The prices of "new 03" models will be less in 04. To me a brand new car has less then 50 miles on it. Even if what I was buying was a 2002 model car with 50 miles on it, it's still basically a brand new car in 2005.

But thats how "I" see things.
