New to the TL world and wanted some advice. I am looking at a black 2005 6sp tan interior w/43xxx mi.body/paint is prestine,not even a swirl mark from polishing.Tires are about 70%,interior is perfect,no nav but a really sharp lookin car.is 19500 a good price?It is located in SE PA from a used car lot.

PS.... I was going to toss 17,500 in 100 dollar bills at them and see if they would bite

 

I would toss $16,000 in $100 Bills in their face and see if they bite.......

You are looking at a 2005 Non-Nav with 43k miles, not to mention its NBP on Parchment interior (not as desirable as NBP/Ebony interior)....I would offer no more than 16k OTD...good luck... I do admit the fact that its a 6spd is pretty rare but still....

By the way if you are looking at used TLs I HIGHLY recommend trying to find one with Nav, It definately worth it in my opinion....

 

Good idea with the cash.....Their is an 06 TL on the same lot but it's silver/ebony 6sp nav w/63000 miles for 18500 not fond of silver but the ebony interior is nice

 

I would get the silver with the nav. I love the nav

 

+1 - and please if they hesitate, and dont accept the offer...turn around and walk away immediately WITHOUT SAYING A WORD...my bet is you get maaayyybee 3 steps before he calls you back. keep us updated boss

 

get the silver one with nav!!

Haha that doesn't work on cars that are in demand like used TLs... I tried it.

 

Got a trade-in? See if you can bump up its value.

 

I tried trading my 06 cummins and they wont budge off of 20,000.All I hear is auto auction this and auto auction that.I tell them I need 24 for mine and they show me a bunch of auction prices.I tell them we are not at an auction and their response is if they can't sell it,the truck goes to auction.just took it to the dodge dealer today and they offered me 21,5.Told them no dice.For the life of me I can't find any truck like mine anywhere near me(60 mile radius).These trucks are scarce as hens teeth,dealers want them,but they don't wanna pay for one.

 

get the silver. ebony interior alone is worth it, plus 6 speed plus navi. And cleaning them is easy, can't see swirls at all

 

lol daaaaaang must have been an lonely walk back to your car...

 

Try selling it private party. I was going to trade in my 01 Tacoma and they offered me $5,500 for it. Told them no thanks, put it up on autotrader and about 2 weeks later I sold it private party for $10,500.

 

In mint cond its worth $19k.

 

I got a 2005 anthacite w/ grey leather 42000 miles auto no nav for 16,9 They had it listed for 19,9 I guess I got a good deal!!

 

Congrats on the 05 TL and welcome to AZ

 

That's a pretty good deal! Nice job and welcome to Azine
