that was the asking price for mine that i just bought a week or so ago. same specs except no heated seats, ibis and only 25k miles. i got lucky cuz the salesman messed up bad. he was selling me the one i wanted for 31K even pics he sent me was the one listed for 31K, but negotiating on price with his sales manager for another 07 ibis they had on the lot same specs, sline tit and everything else except it's fwd and cvt that was only asking for 27,500. i got the price down to 26,000, started the paperwork and i couldn't believe the price. once we disccovered the discrepency in vin numbers.. i guess the sales manager was somewhat embarrased and also wanted to make a sale after all the work so he said he'd give me the 6spd quattro at the same price but without cpo, or 27,300 with cpo. after my 500 loyalty bonus, i ended up getting it for 26,800+++ cpo'd with a free matte plate delete and detail i can use later. also found it had apr chip after the fact.
a good deal really depends on what you're looking for and what's available. with the economy the way it is...i really didn't want to spend too much this time around as i did on my last b6 usp. i passed on a 05.5 black fwd 6speed 25k miles no sline no tit, but with all other premium options at 21,500 cuz i didn't think it was worth it especially after i started a thread about it and saw what others here were paying. to someone that didn't care about quattro, that probably would've been a great deal but for me to have no quattro, i need to pay less and if they took my final offer for 21,000 otd, i would've been driving it. also for me color is a big thing as well. i wanted ibis... and black as my second option, nothing else. a buddy of mine just picked up over the weekend an 06 15k miles quattro 6speed, base otherwise for 20,500+++. great deal, but it was silver and i wouldn't have done it. i've also seen 07 avant slines with low miles but auto asking for 27K... i don't like b7 avants or auto's but to someone that does.. that would've been a steal if you can knock down a couple grand from it.
here in florida.. it's hard to get more than 1,500 off asking price on a 6speeds cuz they're so rare so you have to look at all that's available in your area as well.
