Would you pay $52k for a good condition 02 with 25k miles and PCM v2? Black on black.

$52k is fair but probably worth closer to $50k especially if its stock.

It all depends on what you want. I you are not particular on color and options you can find better deals out there. With that said, if it is the color you want and has the options you are looking for than it sounds good.

I paid a few thousand more than probably what I should have but I got the color and options I wanted. In the end I think paying a little more for a car that is your first choice is better than getting the best deal.

I agree -- depends on you. I paid $55K for my 04 TT X50 convertible, but was patient and wanted the, gasp, automatic. It is also higher mileage (54K).

Makes me happy every day.

Thanks everyone for making me feel a bit better about the price. The car does come with a 6month warranty from the dealer and they have done a PPI; obviously not as good as me taking to another but if I can get all the paper work which is supposed to include computer scan I feel pretty good about it, plus dealer seems to be pretty reputable.

As far as type of car...as much as I want mods I don't think I can afford them. I want to drive this car for as many yr/miles as possible with spending the least amount of money. I fear if I buy a modded car it will cost me more in the long run and last less. I will start another thread on this topic.

BTW this car also has CF package and steering wheel has been replaced with as the old CF wheel had cracks in it.

Don't drive a modded car, don't get a ride in a modded car and don't race a modded car...and you will be fine.

your EVOMS kit and 16G options available are a great way to not get killed in maintenance and yet have serious viper pulling possibilities. these are not drag-cars and with around 550HP you won't be able to control much more in the corners.

+1. Considering the HRE's and all other options, I cant imagine this car still being available. I noticed it in the for sale section the other day...sounds like a good deal for what it includes unless youre looking to go cheap regardless how much its been crapped on.
