2004 Lx Purchase Help

[jjgold]

Hi I am the new guy. Looking at inking the deal on a 2004 Certified. Has 47500. We have agreed for $34,700. I was going to buy a new QX 56 but I just refuse to pay $70k.

Do you think it is a good price? I have asked for a copy of the work order to see what work was done when certified. The car is a one owner in a warm climate and all the required service was done at the store I am buying from.

ANY THOUGHTS?

Thanks

Without knowing any options I would say I think the price is a little on the high side based on kbb.com.

Hey thanks for the reply but I went on KBB.COM and when I run it as a certified pre owned it tells me the value should be $41,000. Did I do something wrong? Options? It has Levinson and Nav. There were only two options available right? DVD and Nightvision. Right? Anyone else?

Well than it sounds like a good deal. The quote that I had was on an average so your pricing for cpo is more accurate. Good luck.

Any other thoughts out there? It seems that there is an opinion that the pre 05 trucks seem to be made a little better. Forklore or truth?

I always look at trade in value. The dealer won't even give someone that for a trade so if you can get the price down as close as you can to that then you are doing good. I think you got a great deal.
