Question Buy new or used???

I'm planning on ordering an 03 in Jan. but the dealer just got a used 01 in today. I went to look at it. It is silver with only 7000 miles on it. He was asking $27,900 for it. It has an exhaust on it. (not sure which one cause it was dark out) and may have other mods. I was looking for a serial number on the blower pulley but couldn't find one. I told him I would give him $25,000 and not a penny more but he wouldn't accept. He said if things change he'll call me. Should I even consider this or just wait till March? WIth the X-plan I'll only be saving $4,500 with buying used. I think I just answered my own question. lol But anyways, what are your opinions on this?

Thanks,
Pete

You did anser your own question.....The 01' sounds like a deal if you can meet him half way...say 26k. That is what i paid for mine with 8975 miles on it. Then take the $4500 and mod that thing to the moon....

buy new u never know what the guy before u did to it. Trust me when u buy any sports car or truck and it only has 7000 miles on it you know those 7000 were agressive ones most likely. Think about it. I u had a sports car and only put 7000 miles on it and already modded it u know it was driven hard. I know i drove mine hard. you'd be better off with your own truck to put a hurtin on. go for the new

Who cares how it was driven.It has a warranty right?How ever check the interest rate between the new one and the used one.The difference in that alone,you maybe better off buying a new one...Good luck whatever you decide...
