Default Found a 06 IS350, price right?

Hi, I found an IS350 late model 2006 (07/06 import date) lux package, every option except ML for 24,500. 30k miles, new tires, excellent condition. Is that price ok?

Its a reputable non-lexus dealer.

Hmm i would consider it as a good price cause of the mileage. If you like it get it!!! Its best to get it with warranties just in case. I would low ball those guys for 22K out the door!

Its the perfect color combo for me, and its not too far, so i could drive it home rather than ship it. I just want to make a deal quick, before it sells, and I dont want to overpay.

I just picked up a IS350 Blk/Blk with Nav and 38,000 miles really good shape for $24,900 in SoCal..Dealers are selling them for like 28-30 depending on options..Private sellers are going for about 24K...I did run across a guy selling an IS350 with 18K miles Lux/Nav said he let it go for 27,500..So I think that is a good price..Again in Socal these cars are still selling so dealers kinda wont go to low...Sheet i went to one dealer had one with 63,000 miles on it for 24,900 i offered 20K they said no way..It was in really good condition...

I talked to them again, I got it down to 25,900 OTD.

Worth it?

6.25% tx auto sales tax.

The car is white. Is that an easy color to care for?

Sounds like a good deal as long as you know the history of the car.
