Default Good deal?

Found a blk. on blk. GS400 w/ 32k miles. Has everything except nav. 65 year old female owner, and she wants $18,500.00 for it. I already ran a carfax and everything comes back clean.
Garage kept since new. What do you guys think? Thanks in advance, Mike

Can you tell us what year is the car? If it is 2000, then it is a good deal for that milage.

It's a 99' GS4. She said there is not one ding, dent, or scratch anywhere on the car.

search on line for similar gs 400 in your area. This should help you decide if it is a good deal or not.

I think it's a great deal with so little mileage. hopefully granny is not a smoker.

Yeah, it's a non-smoker car Are GS400's faster than GS430's? I was told that they are but, only by a 1/10 of a second or something like that.

I would hop on that car in a second. You are not going to find another one with that low of miles, that car is practically brand new! Try to take some off the price, if not still get it.. just my opinion
