Looking to buy a gs350 fsport here priced at 31,355 with 57k miles, L certified cpo. priced to high or low? What is a reasonable price can I ask for out the door? 31k? 32k out the door less?
Car is 2yrs 11 months old
What options are missing?
Wait, you're in FL. What are you going to do with the Cold Weather package? Furthermore, I'm a little leery of a high mileage East Coast car, be sure you look closely for any rust issues underneath the car.
Also, when I see "Manager's Special" it means that the Dealership Manager (with all his sales experience) will be the best person to go against a smart, educated car buyer who's not going to put up with any BS.
I'd push for the lowball price out the door. The CPO/Extended Warranty is there to help put folks at ease (probably because of any impending hidden issues down the road).

Island thanks for the reply, the cold weather package just happened to be on the car, I was seeking out an fsport.
What do you mean you are leary with east coast cars? I live on the west side of Florida, about and hoursouth of tampa. Is the easy coast more harsh then the Gulf Coast of florida??? I've bought a fellow cars in my lifetime just generally new. I think rust is almost a non issue here in florida, but I could be wrong. I've lived about 1/4 mile from the beaches most of my life and currently now. I will definately take a thoroughly look of the car. Does any place gather more rust then others?
What's everyone thinking about where I can get the price out the door.
My previous car, had 130k, and was spotless. Here's a few pics of my old IS. i had traded cars with my farher in law for the day and he got into a little accident... lol fortunately everyone is ok and it wasn't his fault. Some old bird cut across a three lane highway and he tboned her.
Great price - just go over the car carefully esp. the more $$$ wear and tear items like tires, brakes, rotors, wheels, suspension and seats. Be mindful of any dealer fees/doc fees that could drive up the price a bit.
There is always a few hundred dollars of wiggle room - I would offer just under $31k and see how they react.
Otherwise, the car looks great on paper...Best of luck!

Sorry in advance, if I come across a little harsh or semi-snarky, my intent is to help and mean no harm.
The cold-weather package and the car located on the East Coast gives me worry that the car was exposed to the salts of the "great white north" which gives into rust of the undercarriage. (shrugs) I could be wrong. The car may have been purchased in Maine and was sent down to Florida right after purchase?
Yeah just make sure it's a true F sport. If it has wood trim inside then it's not an F sport and it could be a luxury package GS converted into an F sport by the previous owner. Are the gas and brake pedals black or silver? you can't just look at the different drive modes and see if it's a true F as the luxury also has Sport plus mode.
