How long has it been posted? You may just need to be patient. There are a glut of cars in that price range and it's a buyer's market, so it may take some time to sell. Just bought mine in December, and the dealer that I bought my G from had it for about 2 months before I bought it, and it was very competitively priced...

I paid 19k at the dealer for the same thing this time last year. So it is not too bad at all. If anything another 500 off should be the most you go down.

You may want to put up some more photos (interiorand and other angles). Is the warranty still in effect? Condition of the tires? Service records?

Decent price, but only one photo? That is definitely taking away from potential buyers. If anything, you should have way too many photos. Show them you have nothing to hide

I just bought an 03 G, garnet fire, black leather with all of the same options and 49k miles for 16,990. It has the stock 6 spoke rims, not the 5, though. I paid wholesale, though, so yours is priced right.

I agree. One shot of your car is not enough to make an effective ad. The more photos you have to show (including the interior), the better.

And just for reference, I got my '03.5 5AT sedan, premium package, non-nav, 40K miles for $18,000 from a private seller in Sept. '06. I would probably consider reducing the current price by $500 and see what happens.

He's selling the car, not trying to buy it.

If you aren't getting any calls, I would drop it to about $16.9. Give more detail about maintenance, dealer maintained, oil changes every 3500..etc. State if you are a single owner.

Take more pictures. The one you have is pretty dull. If you need help, email me some pics and I can photoshop them to make the paint look sparkly clean.

The low miles should be an attraction so not sure why you aren't getting calls. Good luck.
