You just passed it up, how low do you think the dealers are going to go. A loaded Vert with the options you described is worth the out the door price.

That 's not bad for an A6. If it's a M6 I'd try to get about 5k less.

you guys are on crack in my opinion (no offense)

a loaded 08 vert is worth 45 tops (used)

I wouldnt go more then 50 new.

btw i purchased a loaded 07 vert back in july for way less then what I'm quoting above for the 08.

Always try to get the "mark" to go for the highest possible price. Then you can moan and groan everytime you knock off a dollar.

msrp increases probably anytime now......cause after all the higher the msrp the better deals we will be getting etc.

The low price deals are history. People (sellers) are drawing the line on the price. I've noticed this on other retail items.

Not on cars yet.

I suspect you may be right when it gets to spring (March-April)

The few drawing the line are standing there with an unsold vehicle.

It depends on demand of course. On the west coast the verts are in demand and are hard to get at basement prices. I bought an 06 holdover with 50 miles on it last August, the exact car I wanted for $ 40K. No reason to sweat a few grand just do it.

So how much was it without the TTL ? You should see about a 52,000 price give or take.

Yeah, this is an unreal deal, Keven is a close friend of mine and this car is better than new.......I can't believe he is selling for this price, I know what he paid for it, never been driven hard and well maintained, he and I can't understand why this car hasn't sold, if I had the extra funds, I would love to pick this car up! If someone is looking for a like new car, this is it. It's a very good deal for someone that lives in Ga. considering their is no sales tax on private party sales!
