I say knocking the price down more. One thing if you plan on driving this in the winter time go with 07 & up. Unless you wanna do the pedal dance boom to turn traction control off hahaha....

Bought mine about two years ago for just under that, but with more miles and without the luxury package. Sounds like a pretty good deal. What's it value book out at in your area?

Even tho my car is 08, but I still think paddle dance make the car became more active, the gas respond faster and car is moving by you not by electronic. That's what I thought

Low miles on an 06, sounds like a good deal, only thing i think people would have a problem with would be that some like it when cars are driven around 15k~ miles a year.

When I purchased my '06 350 it had a yearly average of 5k miles...and no it was a lease. I had NO problem laying down my 20k for my purchase!
