Hey fellas. I came across a car that I really like and I went to day to drive it and make an offer on it. This car is modified with as far I can tell, 3-peice wheels and rolled fenders, not sure what it is lowered with but it seems to be lowered...
This is the Lin to the car for sale from a Toyota dealership...http://arlingtontoyota.com/preowned-...XA5007345.aspx

Also if anyone know if this car belonged to someone on here that would be helpful

So what are your guys thoughts on how much I should pay for this? Is this listed price reasonable?

EDIT: found another car that I'm interested in...http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...e&rdpage=thumb

I wouldn't pay more than blue book...but thats just me

Thanks for the reply, I didn't find it on Kbb but I appraised it on Edmunds and it's saying around $49k

I left the dealership with a final offer today of $49.5 OTD

So you bought it? or no deal?

Yeah 49k is a lot better than the 54k. I don't know why it was priced that much with 15k miles already on it. From what I've seen on the forums, 45-46k is the range you should of paid for the car.

edit: well since it is lowered with custom rims, I think you paid a fair price.

sweet...I just picked up my '10 for 50k and has 11k miles

adamls2

No I have not bought the car yet. Since the original price that they gave me was 59k OTD and I guess I stumped them with that 49.5 k price they were kinda pissed... The best they could do was 57.5 OTD but that's still too far from my liking.

I wish I knew what all of the mods on the car were...

Oh dude, sorry I missed the OTD part on your original post. Yeah 49.5k OTD is asking a lot if the taxes and other fees are the same for a used vehicle. If taxes and fees are the same then your OTD offer by you is little low.But keep looking around and even hit up the search function to see what others have paid. Sorry if I mislead you with my previous post.

For that car, anything over 48k before taxes would be overpaying, imo.

adamls2

yeah, so i guess its still a bit more than i anticipated... they kept on giving me BS about how this is a special color and the rims cost 6g's and what-not... idk... i might counter offer them with a little bit more room... still unsure... but thanks for the help so far guys

DCoolBeans

Tell them to keep the rims and step up on your offer

adamls2

LOL I did but they said the car is sold as is and didn't come with the stock wheel setup...

So anyways I found another car for sale that I really like. I'm sure this must be someone nn the forums. It has Wald front bumper, jic coils, vossen wheels, and a custom exhaust ( not sure but it looks like iss)
Here is the link to it on auto trader...http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...e&rdpage=thumb

So does anyone know whos car this is or have any other info on it? I sent the seller an e-mail with some questions so we'll see what's up.

Lol dealer cracks me up, that first one you posted is sitting on work GS3's, no doubt some sick wheels but not $6k, more like $3k and $4500 depending on tires.



I have the same wheels.

i love how if you try to trade in a car with mods, the dealer says they don;t add to the value. take away if anything. then when they sell it, they add to the price lol. i'd tell them to **** off and keep searching haha...second one looks like a decent deal.
