Another "Should I buy" thread
I have been searching for a 98-00 GS400 for going on 3 months now without much luck. Almost all of the local ones in my color choices have 100K+ miles, need tons of work, etc...
I have been going back and forth with someone for a few weeks. He has a black 98 GS400 with only 54k. He has records of the 15/30/45k services. No paint or bodywork. He upgraded to a factory wood wheel (no more paddle shift). Car looks to be pretty much mint. He was originally asking $21,500, and I now have him down to $17k. He is very firm on the price. Is this a fair deal?
Black is pretty much my 3rd choice. I was looking for a 98-00 for the paddle shift, which is now gone I am not too comfortable with his asking price. I told him I would do $16k. Even told him I would come up if he would meet me in the middle at $16,500. No luck. $17k or nothing. After doing some research, $17k seems to be at the high end of what the vehicle is worth, but not out of line.
I am not in a big rush, and waiting longer only means more money I can put down. I just do not want to regret passing this one up b/c of the low miles. Thoughts?

Thanks for the replies everyone. I am just going to stand firm with the price I am confortable with. If it does not work out, then this was not the right one
