Take $16K cash and drive a Proton home. ;)

Eighteen Grand sounds kinda high to me...has it been on the lot long?
Low mileage is good though.
My $.02..... is worth exactly what you paid for it.

I paid $15,250ish for my '01 with 52,000miles. That price also included a 5 year extended warranty. So if they wont budge on the price try and get some kind of free scheduled maintence program or a warranty. Hopefully you can work something out, good luck and have fun with your new VX!

My '01 Ironman (38k miles at purchase) listed for $17,995. A thorough inspection and listing of deficiencies knocked the price back to $16,500. I feel that I got an even better deal than that considering the excellent $$ that I got for my trade.

I agree that $16k would probably take it home.

Online Kelly Blue book - $16.6k
Edmunds.com $15.3k
NADAguides.com $17.8k

Average $16.5

Show them all of these.... and do as been said earlier if you can. Also...take in other ads for VX's for sale and take $16k cash.
