Thinking about pulling the trigger on this Vehicle but not sure about how to gauge offering or buying a Lemon car from a appraisal perspective. Typically, is 15% below the price about right considering diminished value?
The detail behind the car: Oasis report shows an Engine replacement (Oil Consumption) around 8,000 miles. It also had the AC compressor replaced 3 times and the entire AC system replaced once. Car has 13,000 miles on it now.
The carfax shows some type of accident but I can't find what happened there - nor do I see any visual damage other than 2-3 door dings on the Passenger side.
Rims/Yellow stripes I'm not a fan of either but the Dealer has said they will order the stock rims to put back on the Car. Anyone know what these after market rims are, 6GR Project rims - they good?
So I took it for a good test drive, drove it hard and car handled out of this world. I was actually impressed with the top end pull. Nothing like my current GT500 of course but the car overall drives great and I really liked it.
So I dropped the Oasis history bomb to the Dealer yesterday and either they were playing "Coy" or really knew nothing behind it. I'm going to let that fester for a couple days before making an offer.
Is $44K to low you think? That is roughly 15% off but considering the History of the car, The buyer is taking a chance imo. I would also have to buy an extended warranty out of my pocket.
