Looks like a base car with Z51. I think you can get a 08 with same options for 42ish?

It says certified. If so that adds a little but then again, 07's came with the same powertrain warr.
I'd offer $34-35K

Looks to me like a 2LT option car because it has sport seats and side airbags. It also has polished wheels, both tops and Z51 options. The longer warranty started in 2007 if I remember correctly.

I would say $34.5 would be a perfect place to start and end at $35.3ish.

Very nice example with low miles, z51, and both tops. I would say if you had to pay $35-$36K to get what you really wanted, then its worth it. Could definitely try to offer less than that, but the dealer will probably have no part in it.

I'm surprised no one has told you to offer $30-32K yet, lets keep driving on our prices down guys!

My guess is they got it for 27-31k on trade so I would go 31-32k.

The longer warranty did start with the '07 models. But this dealer is offering a Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles warranty. Click the "more details" link at the end of the Limited warranty paragraph and it does give the 5 yr/100,000 mile drivetrain warranty.

I'd start at 33K and work up to no more than 36K if necessary.

Start LOW. You can always pay a fair higher price, but bidding NEVER goes down .

So if they got it for 31K on trade he should offer 31 to 32K? Yea, because dealers don't like making money.

It has side airbags. That alone makes it 2LT.

Really? Shows you what I know... Does the 2LT not have heated seats, hud. Also doesn't look like perf. seats, maybe just a bad pic.
