It's a 2005 touring with 30k miles, no nav. What would be a great deal on it? I am in a fairly cheap/low COL market.

 

look up kelly blue book or carmax
then low ball it slightly to make the process of negotiating a bit longer. it feels knowing that you got a good deal, so a bit of negotiating can't hurt.

 

Well, the car was already being offered at around 2500-3000 under the kbb private party value...the price is right around the tradein at kbb, nada, edmunds...so it's already a decent deal that I'm considering. I wanted to see if I could get another 1000 off, so I was thinking of offering 1500 under their asking price to give room for me to go up some. I just want to make sure that wouldn't be so lowball that the seller would be insulted.

 

Don't worry about it. Give the seller the option of accepting or refusing your offer. Make an offer.

 

Well, I actually ended up getting a very good price because the seller had gotten a good deal before and wanted to pass it on...really nice guy, I didn't even really have to haggle to get a good deal.

I'm getting a 2005 with the touring package and 30k miles for just over $20,000. It also has chrome wheels. I think that's about as good as I could hope to find on a clean car with no problems, so I gladly took it.

 

So how do you like the 350Z?

 

He must have insulted the guy.

 

Looks like we lost another new member to the mighty RSX.

 

RSX are taking over the world

 

how do you loose him to the RSX if he doesn't respond?
