Default Maybe purchasing another GS400

Hello Everybody

I have, what I believe is an excellent opportunity, to purchase another GS400 (I currently have a 1999 Black on Black GS400). I would like to get the broad opinion of the US market values. The one I am looking at is "Gold" exterior 1999 GS400 with NAK, HID's, Spoiler, Moonroof, 17"chromes (with new Pilot A/S tires), 6cd changer etc. It has 19,000 miles on it and asking price is $20,350 (equivilant in US$). I am going to see it on Monday and I will get all the important details then (service records, VIN # for accident reports, etc.). It is an older lady selling and her asking price is well below the norm especially for the ridiculous low mileage. She claims no accidents (I am going down with a mechanic who is my friend). I don't really need this car but I love my own so much that I would take this deal if everything checks out fine. As allways all of your opinions are very much appreciated. Sounds to me like a very good deal.

Thanks

I'm sure if you don't, people will be lining up to buy it. That is rediculous cheap with that low of miles.

99 with only 19k miles for $20,350. Black Book says $21,620 trade-in and $25,000 Retail for a clean GS4. Great deal!

Default TOO LATE!!

I am so upset right now but IT'S GONE! I called the lady two days ago and told here I will buy the car for sure if it is true what she is advertising. She said she can only show it on weeknights. I said I would come after 10:00 pm any night this week as things are really busy with my business right now. She said no weekends but Monday at 7:00 would be fine. She lives about an hours drive away. As I wasn't really planning on buying another car I wasn't really thinking clearly (I should of done anything to be there first). Somebody else came in and gave here $1,000 more than she was asking for and she didn't even have the decency to call me! I thought the deal was too good to be true to start with and now I am kicking myself for being so slow to act.
