Default Found a 00 ws6...

2000 ws6 m6 with 7,331 miles for $18,995. One owner had it up until 3,xxx miles then got hit on the driver's side door, but the dealer said they fixed it. It's been on their lot since 2000 and the manager has put the other 4kish miles on it. What do you guys think? Still a decent deal even though it's been in an accident? They're sending my pictures by the way, they only have one listed on their site. I may have a few angles to work. Give me your thoughts, thanks.

Yeah I know, right? Granted it is a very small dealership or sales lot I should say, but still. Any advice?

If you are gonna be spending that kinda money I wouldnt buy a car thats been wrecked But thats just me. Look around im sure you can find a better deal or you can try and talk him down in price if you want the car.

I guess it's a bum deal, but I'll wait and see what the pictures look like. I mean how much could really have gotten damaged? It has been in an accident and on their lot for what..almost 6 years, I think 16grand is a fair place to start from haha.

Even in MD that's kind of high for a 00, and being that it got wrecked. Hell blue book on an 02 in excellent condition is around 21 to 22 grand. There is a reason that car is still on that lot. Keep looking and good luck.

I guess the consensus is to keep on looking. Im tired of hearing that haha.
I also found 2 that are being sold privately. one 00ws6 with borla exhaust with 13,300 miles for around 19g I think. The other is an 00 ws6 silver with 33k mil going for 16grand. Thoughtsssss

If you're willing to go to nebraska, there's an 02 WS6 for $16500, 28k miles
See there are deals out there, just might need to expand your search a bit more
1-402-560-4695 that's the number to that ad, just in case

I paid 17,700 for mine last July with 19,000 miles on it, never wrecked, but if it is fixed right don't worry. So what if everyone thinks it is alot, sometimes you have to go with what you find, if you feel good about it then you didn't get ripped espically if you don't feel like driving to China to get it. If you like it you are the only one that has to live with payments.

Offer the dealer $14k since it's been hit and sitting there, see if he bites.

If the dealer has let it sit since '00 i doubt he's willing to budge on price. Some people truly think all 4th gens are collectors cars since they aren't made anymore.

There's a small lot dealer near me that's had a 2002 CE t/a vert for like 3 years now...asking $35K. He recently picked up a CE coupe too. I'm sure he'll have both those cars for the next 3 years too.

19K for any 2000 is not a deal, i don't care if it's never been titled. I'd low ball the dealer and see how they respond.

Is it online or in a newspaper or something? Could you send me the link? It's something worth looking in to. I'd fly out and drive it back.

And I think I will lowball the dealer and offer like 13g for the one that has been in an accident. It's worth a shot. I'm just getting tired of waiting haha.

My search on autotrader is only limited by price, m6 and, of course, v8.

It's in a local autotrader mag called Wheels for you, also can be found in the Lincoln star Journal, the number that I put in my post was the number listed in the ad, so if you want to call it go ahead (it's been in the mag for about 2 weeks)
http://lincoln.wheelsforyou.com/inde...atus=&x=39&y=4
There's the link, it brings up 3 T/As, the top one is the one I'm refering to (BTW the second one is a vert)
