Default Help me appraise this gs...

its a 2000 gs400. The car has 93k on it and it is orignally from texas. It has navigation, hids, and the chrome 17'' wheels. Color is like a beige or light brown. No accidents all original body panels with vin stickers and all. Second owner car and the only mods to it are light window tints. I saw the original window sticker and the price was $54k. What is a car like this worth these days? i think im going to be buying it so i wanna offer a fair price but also get a good deal on it.

I will pay no more than 17K if it is perfect condition.

By the way, How about my 99 GS4 Blk/Blk with 57K, NAV/HID everything loaded. If I sell mine I will put it back to stock + TTE lip. Not a single thing wrong with it, not even a scratch.!! How much you guys think it worth?? I am in Las Vegas...I bought it in Feb this year for 23K, so I am thinking around 21K?? Haha, thinking about changing car again.

Have the water pump and timing belt been replaced recently? If so then 18K would be a pretty good price. If you can get it for 17K then that's a very good deal and you ought to jump on it - assuming that everything else checks out.

Go to edmunds first and see what they quote you at for the car.... I agree i would stay betwwn 16 and 18k... I've seen cars in my area with 100k+ for 18k.... So 17k would be a great price..... Good Luck
