Leftover 07 Tribeca by maryh3

I looked at an 07 base model, 5-seatTribeca a few months ago but rejected it because I thought the 7 passenger Tribeca would be better for my needs. However, since then I have purchased a new minivan and was hoping to give my old high mileage minivan to my college-aged son. Needless to say he is objecting. The dealer has contacted me saying he REALLY wants to move this 07 model. How low do you think he will go? I would be buying it for my kids as a safe vehicle. If it goes to a college though, it will sit out subjected to the elements since they have no garages there. I don't mind dealers making a profit, however, I am compromising on what I want, so he will have to compromise too.
 
The invoice on this vehicle is 28936
Rebate is 3500
 
It has about 5000 miles on it (demonstrator)
 
What do you think is his bottom line - even if he has to take a small loss?

Offer him 25k TOTAL including TTL out the door - not a penny more.
 
28936-3500-2000+TTL= +/- 25K depending on your state tax.
 
It's a used car no matter how you look at it.

I agree. Looks like someone is about to pickup a bargain, too...

Body styling is different, so it's your personal preference whether that's an improvement or not, but there were many other improvements in the '08 model. Most significant change is the new, larger 3.6L engine, which puts out more horsepower and torque, gets better fuel economy, and runs on regular unleaded instead of premium. Transmission was improved. Suspension was tweaked for smoother ride. With larger side mirrors plus the redesign of the D pillar & rear side glass, rearward visibility was improved. Raised roof rails were added for better utility. Access to the 3rd row was improved. Tweeter placement was altered for better clarity. Key and remote are combined instead of 2 pieces. Plus, when it's time to trade or sell the vehicle, you'd be getting an additional year's worth of resale value with the '08 and it'd likely be easier to re-sell than the '07 because of the styling changes.
 
To me, those changes are worth quite a bit... particularly the engine and transmission. And if you drive a typical amount, you'll save at least $1500 in fuel costs over 5 years filling up with regular unleaded instead of premium. (Figuring 20 cents/gallon difference in fuel grades and 15k miles driven per year.) That $1500 would recoup quite a bit of the price difference between an '07 and an '08.
 
About $1500 below invoice is a good target for an '08. So you should be able to get an '08 7-pass Ltd without DVD or navigation for around $30,500-$31,000. That includes any rebates, but doesn't include any taxes or fees.

08 Beca is a no brainer, unless you can get 07 for > $6K less and need to save the $.
 
Course you also could buy the Land Rover LR2 and spend more time in the shop.

08 for the engine alone. It's worth more. Plus the cheaper fuel.
 
I think you'll actually come out ahead in the long run (resale, fuel costs), but even if it did cost more I'd say 08.

I am looking at the 2008 B9 limited with a navigation system. MSRP is $35,640. Dealer in eastern PA is offering it to me for $33,557. Does this seem reasonable?
