What is the most I should offer for this vehicle?

The car in the pic is a Nismo edition -- those are more money.

Check KBB and deduct about 10 - 15% to arrive somewhere around black book (i.e., wholesale) - invoice territory. Always start low and know how high you are willing to go before you walk away. They'll probably call you back anyway...

I don't see nismo as an option anywhere on KBB. Maybe too new to have any data for?

Yeah, this is the same problem I ran into.

Hmm.

Okay... to the OP, go check out the invoice/MSRP price thread and calculate the % increase going from a 2009 base model to a 2009 Nismo.

Go back to KBB, determine the value for a 2009 base model with the listed mileage and options, add the % increase for a Nismo, then deduct another 10 -15% as I suggested to get back to wholesale/invoice territory and start around there as your low bid.

Depending on how long it's been sitting there, you might even start a bit lower than that just to get the conversation going... remember it's going to be two model year's old in a few months...

$36-37k? For a new NISMO 370z? That is very unlikely unless you were family to the dealer or NISSAN.

I think with 5k miles assuming no damage $34k is fair for an 09 NISMO. You might be able to get it cheaper if the seller needs to move it now.

Not at all unlikely...Invoice is $37K and some dealers are going lower (into holdback) to move them... Lou Fusz sells 370's here at invoice all the time..
