Default What is a fair price for this 2008 Isf

Hi, a local dealer notified me they just received a trade-in and now have an Isf available. I've been looking for quite some time and I feel the price is steep. Unfortunately, the photos are not up yet. The color is black/alpine and the body is straight. Any input would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Depends on the mileage of course. I see most 08's range anywhere from around $35k to $45k.

I see that you are in MN and this F is in Wayzata. For an 08 with that mileage, sounds fair to me. Good luck with the purchase.

after taking a test drive and knowing how rare these cars are, those prices are well worth it.

I would try to get it for 40k, but with low miles and warranty, this car will be gone soon.
Don't forget that the price listed doesn't include tax and registration.

CPO qualifies for 3/100,000 warranty and extremely low Lexus financing.

Plus, Obsidian with alpine interior is even rare for an IS-F. It's the color combo I wanted, but I ended up with black on black, and had to find mine about 300mi away. Seems like a pretty decent find to me. I agree with the guy that said to try and talk them down to an even $40K and roll with that.

I bought my 08 CPO with 30k miles about 8 months ago for $42k out the door with all taxes and fees, I looked for several months for a low mile CPO and I will tell u that they go quick. My car was listed at $41,500 and it had just been traded in at Lexus dealer, I didn't want to go back and forth so I made a one time offer and sales manager called me back that day and accepted it

This is exactly what I bought my 08 F for with 3k more miles (at the time) 7 months ago. Not the deal of the century by any means but not a bad deal either especially if it has been well taken care of. Mine was in really good shape and had brand new tires and brakes all around so I said screw it.

7 months later don't regret it at all ...awesome car

Not sure of ur situation but if ur financing the car I wouldn't let $1000-$2000 make u lose a car u really want, the difference in monthly payment is so minimal that it's not gonna make a real difference. I lost 2 cars trying to really squeeze the dealers when someone else made better offer
