I was out comparing a MB GLK to an Audi Q5 on Friday, when I saw a 2009 Cayenne the dealer had been using as a demo. 4000 miles. The color combo is what I was looking for (white on beige), nicely optioned with most of what I want, except for a back-up camera or sensors. Soft leather, Nav, preferred package, 18" turbo wheels, XM radio. Sticker was 63,795. Dealer asking for $54,500. I was hoping to get them down to $49,000, but I'm not sure if that is possible.
Any thoughts? I find it difficult to compare prices online with such a wide range of options on these cars.

 

hard to tell you since you left out what model of Cayenne it is..... V6, S, GTS, Turbo or Turbo S?

 

As mentioned, the model is critically important. That said, just looking at the numbers you provided, $54,500 is 85.4% of MSRP and $49,000 is 76.8% of MSRP. At auction, the base Cayenne goes for about $39-42K, the Cayenne S about $48-54K, GTS $70K. Basically, the price is correct for a S, high for a base, and low for a GTS.

 

Sorry. V6. No S, GTS, or anything else after the 'Cayenne'. I thought they might be a little high. Looks like the 2011's are out already. The guy I bought my 997 from will be there Monday.

 

Even with the low miles, I think your offer of $49K is still a bit high.

 

Yeap. for a base model that is high.
drive the new one and get the new one. it's definately worth it.

 

Thanks for the responses. We are going to go with a GLK - I don't think my wife wants the porsche as a dd. I definitely think it's a great car - made even better for the 2011 model year.
