I am about to buy:

2007
66,xxx miles
new tires
1 owner - all service records
Every option except for the rear hitch is not installed. pre-wired - I checked
KDSS
Sport
NAV - Rear DVD
No accidents
Very Clean
Private owner

$28K - too much for a private sale? Kind of wish it was at a dealer so I had some recourse if there is anything wrong with it.

Thanks - May be on here more soon, if I get the GX. Also really lusting for a CT200H but I will wait to see how a 2 year old low mileage one prices out.

Id say its high, especially for a private owner. I payed $26k about a month ago for an 07 with Nav, ML, 6 disc DVD and good shape but slightly higher miles at a dealer and I know I payed too much, but I did so knowingly for a number of reasons. PErsonally, to me, your seller seems to be off by at least $4k.

CruiserGX

You are in CA. that's a good deal, try to talk him down to $27.5

Thanks for the replies so far guys. I do see that the GX's in NY/NY seem to go for a bit less. I see a lot of them at used car lots that, according to their Carfaxes, have been brought in from the NJ/NY areas.

It seems to me the KDSS is very very rare.

Looking for some more input....

KDSS sport is VERY rare. What colors? If it's a dark color interior/exterior the price is pretty good.

Black on black/tan interior with the black birdseye maple.

The ivory/tan interior doesnt seem to be quite as popular, and as such doesnt demand quite as high a price. But... this truck is so hard to find, if it's what you want, you just do the best you can with the price. The good news is that they hold their value very well.

If you plan on financing, most credit unions offer a warranty option on any vehicle they finance, regardless of how it was purchased. Of course, their are other 3rd party warranty options, but one backed by your financial instution of choice is usually my recommendation.


Pictures???

talk them down some more, like say $26k and move up a little e/ day til they're sick of you or they like you, either way works

Only pic I have. Probably will try to get the vehicle this week.

that's gonna be one fancy truck man, pearl white outside and tan bright inside - very classy indeed
mine's blizzard outside and charcoal inside - perfect combo for a messy dude with the need for a pretty ride hahaha

atokad

It's actually black on the outside. I like darker interiors, tired of the tan we have in another vehicle, but I guess you can't have everything.

atokad

Well, I did it!

I now have one of each of my favorite car colors in my garage!

Congratulations! Enjoy it in good health.

clubsport

so it is black, funny first pic... kept thinkin it was pearl white...
so how much did you talk the dealer down for it...

I think using a long piece of wood as stopper is a great idea.
I'm going to try that.

Congrats on the new car. Looks good.
