Need ES 350 Purchase Advice
I'm going back to the dealership for a CPO, 1 owner clean carfax 2008 ES 350 with 48k miles. Car has Nav and most options. I'm trading my BMW 7 series. The ES 350 is listed at $24,668, what should I really pay? Also any concerns about this model? The reliability rating seems strong from what I've read online.

That price is very strong. I'd say fair range for that car if it's really in nice shape is between 22-23k with that mileage. Even at 24,6 you'll get your money's worth, but it's just not worth that much in the market today.

unfortunately the west coast lexus market is pretty saturated. In NC, I don't think it's quite as populated. Given that, I'd expect a 1k premium vs. west coast prices, which puts my estimate about right.

Update-car sold after I left
So I tried playing hardball and the car was sold after I left Sat morning. The salesman didn't know until this morning. I also got them down to $22,500 but the car is gone. I'm back to the drawing board. Tough to find a black on black 350 with Nav in Charlotte.
