Default What's a good price for a 2008 CPO IS350 in Seattle area?

Hello CL members,

I found a CPO 2008 IS350 with X-Package and nav, 45K miles and all TSIBs and recalls (including the valve spring recall) done on it in Seattle area. The listed price is $29k. From your expedience, what do you think I should pay for it? I may trade in my 06 IS250 if they offer me a good value otherwise, I will sell it on my own.

Thank you

I know 29k is too much, and I'm trying to figure out for how much should I negotiate.

wow 29k is way too much for sure. Even last year I know I paid a little too much for mine but it was the only cpo sfp with everything I wanted in my entire state. I paid a little over 27k for my cpo at 45k miles

Thanks for your input.

Do you think 25k-26k (+ tax) range would make sense for this CPO IS350?Generally speaking, the cars in this area are overpriced and many people pay for them. By the way, it seems this is the only CPO IS350 in my area. I'm going for a test drive later today.

well 350s are rare compared to 250s and being CPO they hardly budge on the price. It wouldn't hurt throw that offer out there you gotta start at some point and meet in the middle. I would KBB that 350 and offer them about 3k below that. I bet they would only drop 500-1000 though. Thats pretty much how my deal went down

I would offer 26-27k plus tax but that's it.

How long has it been up for sale? Given that its a fairly rare car in your area, and that it's a CPO, they will be much harder to negotiate with. Doesn't mean it can't be done though. I got my 08 250AWD with 57000kms (36kish miles) for 26k before taxes.. they originally wanted 28500. Mine isn't CPO though.

Edit: There were only two AWD models available at the time, and about 4 or 5 other 06-07 RWD models in private sales listing for about 23k with close to 50k miles.

I bought my non-CPO '06 350 two plus years ago for $27k with 30k miles on it, sport package with nav and ML. You should easily be able to get them down to $27k considering the extra miles. I bought mine in Bellevue.

I just picked up my cpo 06 350 in so cal for $22k. It has 47k miles and is matador red (the color I was looking for). Honestly if you find want you want certified, I would grab it because chances are you won't find it again for a long time and I guarantee its not going to be anywhere near you. I would spend $1k more for exactly what I want all day over the "amazing deal" everyone looks for.
