How much would you offer for this S5???

[ViToMiNs090]

Now I know a bunch of you will probably suggest to just buy a new A5 or S5 instead of this one, but please do not post that. Please pretend as if you truly wanted to buy this car and let me know how much you would offer if you were in my situation.

A local dealership has had a 2008 Audi S5 in the front of their lot for awhile now and until now I always assumed it was a new car. In fact it is a used car which is extremely rare in my area, so I immediately fell in love with the car. Then I noticed why it has been sitting there for so long....It has over 28k miles on it already! Now I know some of you may immediately turn down this car, and I am not interested in buying the car unless I get a great deal.

Here is a link to the car:

Please let me know what offer I should make to the dealer and at what price would I be getting a good deal. Thank you all in advance because this community has already helped me out many times before!

I can't help you with your question, but I can't believe there's another member from Schenectady.

I saw that car at Langan back in September; it's gorgeous.

I think it's a fair price, but I would try and shave off a couple of grand or get Audi care and a coffee mug thrown in.....

Here is the auction data. $49,995 is way to high. They need to be closer to 43,000 and make them certify the car as a CPO. That'll cost the dealership another $1775 and you'll have warranty for a long time in fact longer then a new car. The car has enough miles to qualify.
2/12/08 MANHEIM Regular $49,200 18,954 Avg RED 8G 6 Yes
12/12/08 ARENA Lease $53,200 6,935 Above WHITE 8G 6 Yes
12/11/08 MANHEIM Regular $49,250 8,974 Avg GREY 8G 6 Yes
12/11/08 MANHEIM Regular $45,800 24,421 Avg WHITE 8G A Yes
12/11/08 DFW Lease $45,000 13,459 Avg GRAY 8G 6 Yes
12/05/08 MANHEIM Regular $43,000 23,948 Below WHITE 8G A Yes

I would tell them $45,000 out the door as a certified pre-owned.

Do the people suggesting an "OTD" price know what sales tax he has to pay?

[switchface]

I dont have a number to suggest, but I'd look to get a helluva deal and full warranty.

Im probably telling you things you already know, but that many miles on a car that new and hard to come by seems like it coulda been the dealer's demo (meteor on red was a common demo) that was driven hard, sold, and in putting some hefty miles on the car the owner realized it had some flaws.

Keep in mind im not saying thats what happened with this specific car (it could be mint), but it deserves looking into.

Good luck.

That was definitely the dealers demo car, I just pulled the Vin in AIM (Audi Inventory Management) and it is showing as their in service demo. They should make a hell of a deal on it. I would say 45k out the door with taxes and tags and CPO is pretty agressive, but it doesn't hurt to try.

That was a demo car over a year ago. I beat the crap out of it. They are not going to rock bottom price it. It hasn't moved for over a month.
