The sticker on mine ordered from the factory.. with the same goodies plus a backup camera and glass roof was $37,000 (i didnt pay that much). Id say getting them to 28-29 shouldn't be that big of an issue since thats around what the car is actually worth.
Also, take a look at the tires. I had to replace my summer-only Pirelli tires (that come with the Brembo package) at around 14,000 miles. They had tread, but were getting really unpredictable.
Replacing those tires is pretty expensive. You may want to point out the life of those pricy tires when dealing. If the tires are brand new (as in replaced).. then you saved yourself around $1000 right there. My replacement Michelin Pilot A/S Plus cost me around $1,700 from Dobbs.. (I went there for free rotations and patches.. I seem to be a magnet for nails).
If the tires show a lot of wear, and they wont go down as far as you would like on the price, ask them to put new tires on. If you can get it for around 29- or their asking price.. and get new tires out of the deal, thats a $1,000+ bonus for you.

the one thing that really irks me about the car though..it has a stupid front plate on it. So there are holes in the bumper and I dont want any type of dumb plate. I dont get why some dealers put that crap on when PA does not require a front plate. Also the car is being sold as is..no warranty on it.
according to Carfax. The dealer bought the car from Auction to sell on their lot. So I bet they got it for dirt cheap. All these little things make me want to offer even less for it.
