Car Buying Question...

[curtiscarter23]

Im looking at this 06' honda accord EX. Its got 37k miles on it. Pretty much perfect condition. the dealership wants 11,995. I would really like to buy the car, but im just not comfortable paying that much for a car thats damn near 6 years old. Do you think i have any wiggle room on this price? I will be paying all cash if that helps any. I'd be more comfortable if i can walk out with car around 10.5-11k taxes and fees included. Is that possible?
thanks in advanced for the help.

^^ dealer is kind of far from my house and i dont want to go in and waste mine and their time if its not possible.

 

[curbyourenthusiasm]

so you waste our time with a question only the dealer can answer instead? oh.

Do it over the phone dude...

My wife did the same thing with hers. She told the dealer she only had $10K in cash and they lowered the total price of the vehicle to include tax and license. Call the dealer and tell them the situation. If they don't want to budge, you didn't waste your time driving there.

Don't worry about the age of the car. What matters is how well it was maintained. That sounds like a decent price for an '06 Accord but always check KBB.com for the blue book price and then negotiate down from there.

This, I only step foot into dealerships to test drive and check out cars in person. I always deal over the phone or through e-mail.
