Good price for used MR?

Hi, long time first time...

Looking at a used 06 MR at a local Mit dealership... with 4500miles ... They want $31000, is this about right on or what do you guys think?

Get them down more!

The price sounds good, but you need to remember that they might have hidden charges: Dealer fee, etc.

I would make them an offer like 29,900 nothing over 30K.

Less is better.

ummm..31K is a pretty frickin good price for a barely used IX MR. there are VIII MR's still going for this much.

obviously get the best deal you can but 31k pretty reasonable, especially from a dealer. no damage to car?

thanks guys,

thats what i was thinking... it could be a bit lower. I think i will offer 29 900 per that advice. Its looks like its in excellent condition. I asked them why the previous owner traded it in and they said it was a 19 year old that just couldnt afford the ins payments anymore.....($400+ a month) so that kinda scared me on how much he might have torched the car....

Be hard and just say that it your final offer. See how far you can make it out of the place before they change the price!

I think you could not get it less than 25K for that car. They will only go down so much.
