75 views and no advice?? Perhaps some advice about how to post so that one can get some advice?

Sorry but not sure what you're asking for. All prices seem high to me but I don't know what Cdn. prices should be.

That's what I'm asking; how well priced are these cars? What would be a fair/reasonable price to pay for them given their mileage and the options listed? Which one appears to be priced the best, assuming a clean PPI?

Re the Canadian pricing, given the par dollar, it's not too difficult to purchase in the U.S. and import to Canada. If the prices are significantly better, I may well do so. In fact, two of the three cars I my original post were imported from the U.S. by dealers (the silver ones).

GTS 6 spd

There's your answer - dealer imported used vehicles to meet demand and is charging an appropriate market premium. And yes the prices are high relative to US prices given the fx rate is essentially 1:1. For comparison, I picked up an 08 GTS w/ 18K miles for $49K last summer, and just replaced that one with an 09 w/ 16K miles for $55K - slightly better options.

Check out Autotrader and cars.com to get an idea of the asking prices of comparable vehicles and start negotiating with better info.

Wow, okay, that helps put these prices into perspective. Thank you.

At current rates here, I'd want a turbo or GTS for that price.

Okay, thanks guys.
