So I've been searching for a third car for a while now. I came across an 08 RL with 5400 miles, non-tech, with the A-Spec body kit, A-Spec wheels, and lip spoiler. Black on Black. 3 of the wheels have curbage but other than that, its in pretty good shape. What should I pay? They are asking 30k.

 

I wouldn't do non-tech bro. You'll def be missing out.

 

25000 - 30000 if it has 5400 miles that is very low. I would get it in a second!

 

That is a very good price. Almost makes you question what's wrong with it...?

 

non tech ftl how you gonna have that nice big screen for navi and have no navi....

 

Honestly, the non-tech thing is not that big of an issue. This is more of a leisure car than a dd. We do our traveling in the Suburban or Tahoe which have On Star.

 

If that's not a deal breaker it sounds like a good car. But to most of us, the RL is awesome in part because of the tech stuff.

 

As a point of reference I recently bought a 08 RL non tech. I think you will only be missing out on the navi and back up camera. I personally dont like using navis and know where I'm going 98% of the time. I break a garmin out of the glove box for the other 2%. I've been parking cars w/o cameras for over 20 years. But thats just me. My car had 16k miles and is certified. I pd. 26k. Good luck

 

Yea I barely use my nav also

 

While you may not be interested in utilizing factory navi or back-up camera, you should also consider the re-sale value it may give you down the road should you choose to trade this in car in some near future. Hard to justify paying $55k+ car without factory navi IMO. Granted, your garmin may be able to cover more, factory navi option tends to help the resale from what I've seen.

 

^ good points!! I love the factory nav and hated my dash mount unit from my previous car, but OP says he doesn't care. The miles and aspec make it a great find IMO.
