Cool Is this a good deal?

After looking at autotrader.com, I found a dealer that offered me a 2005 Roadster Limited/white exterior/two tone dark interior (with 3 years free oil changes) for $32,315.00? Do you think I should take the deal?
I noticed that there is allot of back stock of 2005's sitting here in florida.

If its got the autostik, nav system and all season tires its a good price (that's all the options left to get basically since you mentioned its got the 2 tone interior). If it doesn't have the auto and nav it doesn't sound like the best deal you can get.

I got 10K+ off the sticker price back in January. You should get at least that to qualify as a "good deal". I think.

I just bought an '05 roadster loaded, auto, red with two tone interior the sticker was around $42,000 it has 1,000 miles but never registered so I am the first owner. I bought it from a dealer for $28,622.50. I thought I paid about $622.50 more than I should of but got tired of looking for a red one so I bit the bullet and bought one. Had to have it shipped so that cost me to. Still waiting for the car to be delivered hope fully by wed. I am not knocking the color white but in my search it seamed like i could buy the white ones for $1,500.00 less then the red.

Waiting for my car in FLORIDA.

Cool Re: Is this a good deal?

Say guys and dolls,
Thank you for the replies and info on this matter. It seems that I have put a bug up a few dealers (!!!). As I try to replace my personal ride every 45,000 miles and there are allot of XF here in Florida, the dealer want to really move sitting inventory. The negotiations are getting better by the hour. I haven't ever left my home to see the cars just checking and emailing direct with internet Managers. Within a 100 mile from my location there is about 6 dealers with a total of 135 XF available. I think, I will be making a better offer then the 1st one.
thanks...

Just got my roadster last weekend at a dealer approx. 50 miles from my home. They usually have quite a few Crossfires in stock but of course when I am looking they had very few. Drove a red roadster with approx. 2,650 miles on it and wasn't that impressed with that particular car and didn't want to buy a "new" car with that many miles on it. So we did a dealer search and found a sapphire blue with only 250 miles on it. Ended up buying the car for 30k...it listed for $41,000...didn't think that was too bad of a deal.

Kmag50,

Congrats! I am sure you will love your XF and keep in mind there are a lot on numbers rolling around but a good deal is one where YOU are happy with the price and item (XF in this case). You have a great ride, drop the top and have fun!

Thanks PaulW...the problem is the temps here in Ohio haven't been warm enough to put the top down. So a couple of nights ago I went out to the garage put the top down and just sat in if for awhile...then I put the top back up...at least it is fun to see it how it works...haha. Yeah I know I am weird but at least I got to put the top down!!! Personally I think this car looks great as a roadster...the top looks fantastic up or down.
