Default Need a quick price check

Hi all,

I'm considering a 2003 430 with the CL package. The car has 60k miles and appears to be in well maintained condition with no accidents.

With that brief description, what would you say is a good price. Along the same lines, what would you day is a great price.

Thanks​​​​​​​

I am new to LS' but depending on condition I'd say about 10 - 12K? With the higher price tier being a dealer maintained with records and clean outside and inside.

Dealer maintained. New battery, tires, timing belt, and pads/rotors.

Timing belt usually done at 90k (not 60)

The records back up the service. I assume this was done due to age rather than mileage. Rubber does dry up over time.

I stand corrected. Timing belt replaced around 50k miles (along with the water pump) due to leaking water pump.
