OP, if you can get them to budge a couple of grand off the asking price, you are doing REALLY well. It's definitely even worth paying asking price for it. Nebula Gray/Red is very hard to find.
definitely agree with you on the color rarity, those 2 very rarely appear It took me forever to finally find my red one. I was stubborn on nebula grey or matador red as my only choices and it had to be 2011 or newer I can say that maybe 4 matador red and 3 nebula grey's showed up in like 15 months which either where ridiculously overpriced or way too much mileage for my taste.

To the OP I would say you should have some room to get it lowered in price but if this is the color you've been looking for and feel yourself that its not too bad of a price JUST DO IT!. If you're not picky in color than this car is overpriced and I would say wait for another one to pop you can get a way better deal than this.

copied from an old post but just to give you an idea of how rare the car is in any color just add rarity to those 2 colors mentioned add ultrasonic blue another rare one
units sold in the US
2008 _____ 2,733

Right I'm clueless because there are another 16 2012 IS-F's nationwide that are cheaper with LESS miles. If that color combo is his must have then I'm sure that will be a good price for him but with that kind of miles I've seen mint ones selling for less

There are only 14 2012+ IS Fs on autotrader currently. They are all black or silver, with the exception of 2 white ones. The standard black interior is of course all you'll find sub $40k. The car OP linked is priced in the mid range and is the only one sold by a lexus dealer. Also the only nebula gray/red for sale in the entire country. It would say that makes it far from being "way overpriced".

Don't assume Abdul's used cars or a similar used car lot has the same quality cars. Those cars end up at auction when the franchised dealers don't keep them.

Either way, I won't spend anymore time on this ... The right buyer will see the value there.

Right, I'm not into getting a high mileage car unless I'm paying under $15k. These cars do hold their value very well though.
