Selling an 05 LE with Nav and DVD
At 38k the dealer is going to be losing close to 4 grand. There's going to be a huge catch, either they'll lowball your trade, knock up the doc fee, add 2 k for chrome wheels or something similiar.
I just purchased an 05 LE with every option offered from the factory, every single one. It even had all the optional parts, save the brush guard. The original price was 51, 800, but I walked away at 41,500.00. This is in Arizona, and was purchased through the owner of the dealership. This was below what they purchased the vehicle for, about 1k. Make sure you dont drive 500 miles and put 1000 miles on your trade if it's a bogus deal. Have them put the price in writing via fax. If the price is realistic they'll have no problem doing this, just fax them a letter telling them you'll buy that day, via fax if the price is realistic. Remember you're in now way obligated to do so. However, the dealers seem to love to be held to prices when negotiated in such a manner. No wheeling and dealing for them = higher profit margins and quicker turnovers.
38k for a new 05 LE is a catch in my book. New SE 05's are still going for 36 in most parts of the country.
