Possible Soon to be Owner

Hello,

I am considering buying a 08 09 RDX and wanted to see what current owners thought of this deal.

08 RDX Base with about 10k miles, CPO. The interior was very mint, the exterior had a couple of dings and some scratches. I test drove a few CPOs and this one definitely felt the best driving as it should compared to other RDXs with 30k + miles. I'm convinced this was a well taken care of car.

The dilemma I'm having is with the price. I definitely want a clean RDX in and out and willing to pay a premium for it but the sales price seems too much at 24,900. My other option is to keep looking and it seems I can get one with 30-36k miles for around 23k but obviously will need some work done on it sooner.

What do you guys think? Thanks in Advance.

Prices are up because there are fewer on the market and many of us are choosing to keep our paid off units rather than risk another loan in our troubled economy.

that's a good point. I wanted a 09 because it's a newer and has the power passenger seat but I saw that there were fewer units sold that that MY so the pickings might get tougher.

What do you think about the price for the car though?

Good '08 with 10K for $25,000. Sounds like a great price to me. KBB for '08 Tech is $30,000.

It sound reasonable price for 25k with 10k on the clock. It looks like the previous owner either work from home or they had another car.

I agree $25k for a 2008 with 10k miles is a great deal.

I picked up the car today. Thank you all for your input. I was able to find out more info from the dealer I take my TSX to because the RDX was serviced there too. It seems a woman with some wealth living in manhattan leased the car which is why the mileage was so low. Other than some comestic issues, I am real happy with the car.
