Asking too much $$$?

Do you guys think this dealer is asking too much for this 8? Or does it sound like a good deal if I can talk him down a little? He is asking $23.900

'04 6speed w/22k miles for $23,900 sounds high to me.

I thought so too. I figured I can talk him down to 20 or 21K and i might consider it. But I am really looking forward to that test drive! 1st time driving the 8! How do you think it looks??? Here is the link.

You could probably get a new '05 not far from that same price- I would go that route, personally.

It's too high. Based on the equipment list it seems to be just a base 6 spd. No non-standard luxary. They also seem to be stressing that there is no warranty. It should still have the balance of the factory warrranty to 4 years or 50,000 miles shouldn't it?

I've been looking in N. CA for a while and found a 2004 w/ 11,800 miles, base AT asking price of $24,800. When I inquired the Internet Sales Mgr. quoted a price of $21,800.

Just today a NEW 2005 A base AT w/ an MSRP of $27,888 was advertised for $20,888 w/ $1,000 MAC financing. I just can't get my act together fast enough to take advantage!

Used ones have to come down.

All of the 05's that I have been looking at are in the 26-27K price range. Where do you guys find these deals? Direct from the dealers?

I'm definetely gonna keep looking...

Should try less than 20k for an 04 with miles. You can get a NEW 05 in the low 20's if you find a dealer with some stock left. They ain't sellin', nothing is.
