The online KBB values are silly.

Unless Mr. Kelly is coming to write you a check I wouldn't put too much faith in those prices.

* i meant for the title to be "pricing questions"*

if the price for the RS is 22k and you've already grinded them then that the bottom line. but on second hand look at the resale value of the car with 42k miles. to be honest with you i think that will be the best deal youll get especially with a IX rs. you also have to consider the price range and the type of car your buying. good luck

Thats is an awesome deal pending overall condition. I just bought one with close to 40k miles and it runs perfect and pulls like an evo with 2k miles. This car has been run very hard and puts down very impressive numbers. Point is, unless the tune was way off, it doesn't really matter how hard he was on it. It will probably be very strong. Just make sure the TC and trans aren't destroyed. That wouldn't even deter me from buying it, just have to factor that into the sale price. Buy with confidence and just take someone who knows evo's to take a thorough look. I would've paid 30k for one.

I could care less whether you think it's too high. I, personally, wouldn't sell my car for less. It's THAT clean.. Period.
