This one is an 04 with 73k miles and I can get him down to about $13,100...outside very good inside a little but dirty but can probably be cleaned....still gotta test drive and get carfax done but its a year newer.

Please give me your opinions.. Thanks so much!

 

My opinion is this should be in the buy and sell forum - it might get better results..

Carfax isn't perfect - I'm sure you know this. If an accident isn't reported to insurance (and even some that are) it won't appear on Carfax..

 

Aye, get Auto Check as well. And a $100 independent inspection at any Nissan or Infiniti dealership as well.

A $50 chemical clean inside can bring almost ANY interior to new.

I'd personally go with a newer model, miles are one thing, but an added year of time and weather can affect a car a bit too.

What's dirty on the inside? Is it just the seat like it shows in the posting? It looks like that person drives around naked a lot. You might want to have them tested for STDs first.

 

Consolidate your threads too.

 

basically the seats...some scratches on plastic and the gauge cluster plastic has a crack.....also it had summer tires that were a bit bald cause we couldnt even get it out of parking lot and it was maybe 3" of snow.....thats all the 04

 

Gauge cluster crack and worn out tires will be an additional expense along with interior cleaning, I'd definitely pass on this '04! If these are the only two you have to chose from go with the '03 or keep shopping....

 

Just looked at the ads. The 2004 is at a dealership (trades accepted) and the 2003 seems private seller, notice the "OBO"?

I'd work some negotiations on the 2003 and work her into the 12's.

Dealerships will charge sales tax, private sellers may not.

 

tried to go 12,500 on the 03 but she wont budge....

 

Tell her you'll add a kitchen utensil on top

looks not bad..

 

id rather have blk interior. wait it out imo but the black one looks the cleanest

 

Pass on this '04. Go for the '03 you were talking about, or wait.

 

is it me or does the 04 look like it has the check engine light on?
