Case in point, and I would have bought this vehicle that day IF.....IF the guy would have been more reasonable on the price. I've been looking for a perfect condition, older, used Toyota Rav 4. I found the absolute best candidate: 2002 with 50K miles, all maintinance, perfect paint etc. That year is highly desirable for older Rav4s because of the engine (timing chain, no head bolt/gasket issues etc.).
The guy is still asking 7600 firm! This is after 2 months. KBB, Edmunds highest private party retail is $5164 with options the car doesn't even have. I offered the guy $5500. It's in that good of condition. Nope, he was insulted, we exchanged words, I told him to do something with himself, he told me to get the bleep out of here etc.
Says right in the ad- PRICE IS FIRM.
What's the price of a new one?
