see if you can go 8k flat out the door but yeah sounds sweet

**chunky** · 09-17-2009

any other input?

**BoostedComp** · 09-17-2009

on a side note.. its a gtp comp-g paddleshifters 3.29 gear ratio blah blah blah.. but i just bought one from a private seller with 73000 miles on it for 7500... but your choice i think i got a good deal on mine. but like joe said... 8k out the door wouldnt be too bad

**carl06GT** · 09-17-2009

dud i would jump all over that and tell them 8 flat and thats all you have

**TorqueAutoMotiv** · 09-17-2009

Yea If you have cash they will do 8k out the door
honestly 8900 isnt bad so anything else you get off is a bonus lol

**Sabrewings** · 09-17-2009

I wouldn't pay more than $8500 for it at all.

**TorqueAutoMotiv** · 09-17-2009

kbb on one in excellent cond is 10500 so its a fair price private party you could find a way better deal but retail value its fair

Warranty?

**SlowM90** · 09-17-2009

I would buy it! The out side looks VERY good...seems to have everything you would want in ur GP and the leather looks good! If your going to pay cash..then ya I would try to get it for around 8K but if your going to go threw them..then I would just make sure they pay sales tax and you put no money down.

You need to see why it was there though. A lot of shops and dealerships are reporting to carfax when you have the oil changed. Maybe the owner took it in every three months for a detailing/oil change/tire rotation.... you gotta check into it, and don't let that scare you.
