Well once you have them, you will always want them in any future car you own!

Good luck with your decision! I think offering $18K and letting them sleep on it is a good bet!

Hey Stingray,

Just thought I would give you my experience recently, food for thought anyway.

I bought an 06 SC Aero 6MT from a dealer here in VT end of December. 20K, one owner, no winter driving.

First they had it listed at $21,900. Then $20,900.... Finally $19,900. I ended up getting it for $17,750, CPO.

I think they will take $18K, and maybe even a tad less. You just don't want to lose out on it because of the last $300 to $500 you are trying to squeeze...

Just my opinion.

If there isn't a tremendous supply of preowned Saabs in your area, then supply and demand would say that the deal you have there is a good one. Heck, for $1300 more than what I paid, I would take that deal today just for the peace of mind that you get with CPO.

CPO Costs about $1300 for the dealer so those two deals are comparable.
