They're asking $16,700. It's a CPO, 18,000 miles, pony package leather interior all that good stuff.
I'd rather get a car thats a couple of years older with all the extras than a 09 bare bones one, especially since this ones CPO the warranties would be about the same.
I did some reading but I still have a few questions. Do you all think this is a good deal? I figure I can get it down a few hundred if anything. Are there any specific things I should check out or beware of? It looks properly maintained and it ran great, but I'm going to have it looked at by a mechanic I know just in case.
This is my first car and I can't believe the hours finally upon me.
Thanks for your time.

That's too high, considering I bought my '07 brand new in Dec. of 2006 for $19K. Have you tried CarMax in your area? Be patient, there ARE better deals out there.
It's interesting that the used car dealer wanted that much for an '06 with 16K miles on it. Makes me wonder how much one would pay for mine with just 6100 miles on it.....and never driven in the rain. I've got the Pony Package with the interior upgrade including leather seats, Shaker 500, MyColor, 17" Rims plus all the other stuff. I also have duals.
