Default Decent Price?

So back in the market for a 04-07 CTS-V after not getting one that I was close to signing papers on 2 years ago. So found a 04 with 88,000 miles on it for $15900. From the pictures everything looks to be in good shape. Does it sound like a good deal the miles are alittle higher then what I was looking for but if it was well taken care of its no big deal.

Seems like a good price to me. Nav buttons look very warn but that's not surprising. Definitely take it for a drive first to check for diff whine and bushing issues. See if it shifts half way decent.

3 owners, no accidents, clear title.

It was a leased car in IL, turned back in at 42,328.

Last owner had a lien on it at 48,830, which is the last mileage report on record for that car.

If something isn't wrong with it, that's a pretty good price for that car. Be wary of the motor/trans/diff mounts, bad CHMSL, worn clutch, bald tires and misbehaving trans. All can cost you some decent coin to get back to square zero.

Good luck

You could get my 04 Silver/Black for $12,500ish. I'm not sure of the payoff but it's under 13. I bought it from a friend who only had it for 3 mos. I've had it for 23months now and have replaced motor mounts, muffler delete, tinted all the lights but the headlights and the wheels are gunmetal/satin finish. The downside is that I used the car as a sales vehicle for 2 years and racked up some miles.....It had under 50k when I got it and now she has 133xxx on the ticker. Hit me up if you're interested, I'm outside of Jasper, Al.

Seems like a good price if everything checks out right. The description is wrong about the LS6 motor only in 2004 but no big deal.

Found a 04 with 59000 for 15200 that I'm going to try and pick up this weekend if they don't sell it before Saturday
