I paid 15k for my 09 PWP / tech pkg and 47k miles. Came stock super clean and all Acura service records. I would imagine the prices may go lower since it has been discontinued. Sell it quick.

15k at the lowest would be my goal. Might want to start by asking for 16.5 or so. Do you have the tech package or no?

I'll do $4500

The cleared headlights may be a problem because the car is no longer legal and may fail inspection.

14 might be selling yourself short honestly, unless you're in a hurry to sell it. See what KBB says is reasonable too.

price it higher so you have more wiggle room with negotiations. just put a higher price and say "obo" or "negotiable"

Exactly. Never list an item at exactly what you want for it. List it higher and let the buyer knock it down to what you want. Make them feel like they won.

Are you selling to purchase something else?

Sometimes doing a trade, negotiating on the other vehicle, accessories/warranties, and final financing could be cheaper and easier being done at the same time compared to focusing on one step of a 4 or 5 step transaction.

There is always Carmax if you wanted to sell the car. The downside with Carmax is you will not get anything extra for added accessories and your price would be closer to trade-in $$$ compared to retail $$$. Just depends on the amount of time and effort you want to spend (and headache of dealing with tire kickers and low ball offers).

Which Florida one is it? I got my TSX from Lexus of Orlando and the guy was telling us how their prices are pretty much unbeatable, how he has had people fly in from ridiculous places just to see the car, have it shipped and it was still cheaper than buying from their state.

Ah okay. Yeah, you could always call the other one and ask them if they can do better than what the Miami one is offering. Worth a shot. Hell, I'd ask every Lexus dealer in Florida, if the difference is really that big.

Yup, just have them battle one another till you get to the lowest price possible.

Wow, that's pretty bad. They could easily mark it up 4 grand. It's always hard to get good value on trading in.

Any reason you're going after a CT200h? I'd imagine the driving dynamics are WAY different from the TSX, considering it's just an upscale Prius.

This was on my short list when i bought my tsx wagon may 2012.
I don't see many ct's either. Not sure why.
But i just really liked the way the wagon felt and never even test drove the lexus.
I think i remember reading 0-60 was around 10 seconds, but mileage was around 40 per.

Ct200h is a great car. I have always like it. The ride is smooth love the hatch look. Simple mods make the car look even better. It's slow but Ill like the gas savings lol.
