Depends on the area. I consider that to be a bit high. But if it's clean and it's what you want, offer $13k or $13.5k and go from there.

Actually, I'd start at $12k; maybe $11k if I wanted to **** them off; but I don't mind being a ******** towards the dealer dicks...

I'd top out at 13k, of course that is without checking the market.

Thanks! Here are 3 pics of the car. Since it has cloth seats and the milage, I was thinking maybe $13,000.

$15,000.00 is about mid KBB on the car with the mileage add. It's a decent price, but you could realistically get to about $13,500.00 to $13,800.00.

This is coming from one of those "dealer dicks" as so insultingly put by Nuke...

Looks nice; a few appearance mods (rear blackout panel, front air dam, Eleanor grill, quarter window louvers, side scoops, stripes, rear bumper facade), engine bay looks clean, but it's tough to tell if there are any performance mods.

I'd be hard pressed to pay more than $14k, though. Most of those appearance mods are relatively inexpensive.

Believe it or not, not all dealerships are out to get you. Some of us do things the right way.

To the OP, best of luck - it looks like a pretty nice car. Don't forget to run a Carfax on it. It may not tell you everything, but it can let you know of some potential issues.
