How much should I really pay for this car?

Also I know RAC is a good shop but where could I get a ppi? I shouldn't trust their inspection of the car right?

you looking to buy a car "cheap" or you looking to buy a good car? How is this price not good for an S with these low miles, options & aerokit? if you get $2,000 $3,000 off you better jump on it!

That price is up near the top end unless values have really shot up lately, which maybe they have. 4 years ago I paid $42k for a 2005 large bearing S with SC, Full leather, Bose, but a non Aero. Had 45,000 miles. I'd say with Aero and these miles, maybe $45-47k.

I've noticed price has been slowing creeping up. I agree with you, I would pay $47 tops. If you get it for $45K, it's a bargain. I would offer $45K and meet them at $47. Aerokits are hard to find.

RAC is a reputable shop within DFW metroplex, i have used them in the past 3 yrs w/o any problem. I would trust them.

Price is bit on high side IMO (3-5K)...but hey they sale on consignment.

I paid close to that price in 2013 for my CPO Atlas Grey 2007 C2S with 32K miles, PCCB, GT2 CF seats, front aerokit bumper, Eibach springs, and 2 years warranty.

@OP, it is sale pending, did u took the plunge?

Whatever it is worth to you. Bottom line. Always get a PPI from independent source - if it shows anything you can always use to your advantage to negotiate or walk away if a deal breaker...
