What is a fair price for this Gallardo? Want to buy my 1st Lambo! Help!

Hey guys. I am thinking about picking up a Gallardo, and I found one that I am very interested in. Could you guys tell me what you think a fair price and a great price would be for the below G. I want to see what the price range for the car should be for me when I walk into the dealership:

2005 Gallardo
6-Spd
Bianco Cygnus White w/ Black Leather
6k miles
Clear Bonnet
Titanium Color Wheels

Gonna check the car out in 2 days. They have had the car for over 5 months, so I am thinking they would be willing to give me a deal. They said they got as a trade-in on a new Gallardo Spyder, and that they gave the guy 154k for this car. I think that is BS. What do you guys think?

No way they gave the guy $154 on a trade. I doubt they gave they guy more than $140 or so. What are they asking for it?

He said they took it in for $154k and would be willing to get rid of it for $150k because they have had it for over 5 months...

They MIGHT have paid him that and took out their loss from the Spyder they sold him.
I would say spend another 10K and get an 06. Shorter gears, better exhaust, more hp, etc..etc..

I think $145 is a very good deal. Remember, car is out of warranty of may have only a few months left.

I just looked at the car yesterday. It was in great shape, But you could tell they never started the car up for a few months as it was just sitting in a showroom filled with cars, and it was deep in the back row. It is a 09/04 build car so it has zero warranty. They said they would put in a brand new battery, and I told them I wanted a complete 3M clear bra installed on the car IF I bought it.

However, they did not want to budge on the 150k price. I guess I should just paybe wait a little while and hope they don't sell it and get more desperate to move it? How can I get them to budge on the price? I would think dealership that sell Ferrari's and Lamborghini's would be pretty inflexible on price cuts on cars....

For 10k more Ican get a heavily optioned 06. The only reason I like this car is the color and 6 speed. But I have seen a 06 with egear, nav, glass bonnet, back up camera, calisto wheels and same mileage for for the same price. I am kicking myself in the **** for not picking it up.I just have to have 6 speed.

Have you seen the one on ebay? I dont care for Balloon white, or else I'd be all over it. Price is on the money.

Price seems right for the color and miles. At least locally they are still in the $155-160 range for similar and not as desirable a color. No matter what you pay you will LOVE the car!

Good luck with the decision!
