Default Purchase help

From my introduction thread I am in the market but taking my time. This weekend I am going to check this car out.

http://inventory.eurocaroc.com/web/u...ornia/1698289/

Does anyone have any thoughts, comments? Have access to the original sticker. Just curious. Other than convertible this car is what I am looking for.

Thanks for that info. Helps me if I move forward. I am hoping to get a look at the original sticker. Their description says RS wheels but they are different.

Does it really have 20" wheels? I thought they were 19" for this model year?!

Nice. Price seems right about on for the mileage on a '12 TTS.... 5000 miles. Perhaps there's not much of a price difference between cars with 5k and cars with 15k though I suppose.. and if that is the case, then I think the right price is closer to 115k. But I doubt lower than that... but TT Surgeon may know more about this stuff than me Can't hurt to shoot lower.

Those are the 19" Turbo II wheels.

If I had to guess, sticker was probably around $169k.

Thanks for that. I went and checked it out today. I was not impressed. The car was nice but imjust got a bad vibe. The front lower lip looked to be replaced and painted but did not match perfectly. There was also a little rash on the two rear wheels.

Problem was the sale guy knew nothing about the car other than pulling up the car fax for me. He gave me some long excuse why they dont have and cant get the window sticker. He also wouldn't or couldn't tell me if the car was taken in on trade or if they got it from auction or other place.

End of the day, my spidey senses told me to walk, i did. Thanks for all the replies and help.

Nice 2011/12 turbo s cars are trading 95-110 range right now. 2013s a bit more.
Red, which I personally like, always seems priced below std black/silver etc, as is my favorite, blue.
If the vibe isn't right, walk, but I wouldn't let a clueless sales guy spook me, that's par for the course at non p dealers, I'm afraid.
Window sticker on a 2012 is simple to obtain, as is the build sheet(above).

"If I had to guess, sticker was probably around $169k."Good guess Guab!!
Car looks outstanding!!!
But if red isn't your color, then its time to keep looking.
Unless you don't dislike red THAT much, AND can negotiate the 5-7K mark down.
