Does this price seem to high?

Hey Guys/Gals

I was checking through autotrader.com as I do most days looking for any new Evos posted. I found a dealer that has 2 evos Im interested in. One is a RR 2006 SSL with 43,000 miles listed for $26,475. The other is a RR 2005 SSL with 47,500 miles listed for $23,995. I have been looking at evos for quite some time now, here and others online and these prices seem way to high. NADA.com says retail for the 05 should be around 20k. The cars both have clean carfax, the 06 has had 2 owners in CA. The 05 has had 1 owner in NV. They are both completely stock and look clean. Just wondering what some others might think of them.

www.mybestauto.com is the site of the dealer that has them.

Thanks for any info and advice you can ad

Anthony

What do you guys think would be fair offers for these cars? I really like the RR SSL and being unmolested is a plus. So I would like to make offers to them pending a clear check from a mechanic. Thanks again for any input you have.

I would say that 21k or 22k would be a fair price as long as its in good condition.

Ya I talked to them on the phone today. They said they went all the way to CA for the cars and they are super clean, unmodded and like new. They also say they dont mark up much off of what they pay so they cant afford to budge on the price. I told him i had 20k cash for the o5 they were asking 23k for and they said nope they could not do it. So needless to say they are a joke trying to take full advantage of people looking for evos on the east coast.

if its completely stock
not returned to stock
i would say its worth 22 to 24k depending on the condition of the 06
whereas the 05 maybe around 20-22k?
