Default Good Deal?

Hey guys,

I'm looking at an 08 enthusiast model with AT for purchase. It's sitting on about 39000 miles and seems to be very well taken care of. The interior is in great condition considering all the other used models with scratched side panels and radios. I can pick it up for 17500 and there is no mechanical issues right now. What do you think?

Sounds good. Personally I wouldn't go for the automatics due to they just don't have as much "fun" factor, but it's really just personal opinion. If you do any serious power upgrades you're going to need a valve body transmission upgrade.

'08 are good though. Deal sounds good. If you like it go for it. Certain interior panels will scratch and chip though at some point. You'll need to respray it with a vinyl paint from any auto store.

no way you can get under 17K out the door. You're talking 1,400 or so in taxes and that price is also going to include the dealer fee and registration fee?

Lowball and a half.

Z prices are even lower in colder months..depending on how long its been sitting, he could get it for 16.5-17k.

17.5 is actually a pretty good deal.. KBB Private is anywhere from 18-19, dealer price is around 21. I looked up and the price for that year/option/miles seems to be around 20 for dealers. 16.5OTD is not even a low ball and a half..it's a complete low ball.
