Are you saying to ask for $500 more than the comps to get down to the price I really want? :thinking:
Yes. get an average for the true replacement cost of the vehicle with the comps. Add 500 or roughly 10% (in your case since the vehicle value is under 5k ) for negotiation. Keep in mind that replacement cost has to include registration fees, taxes and any inspection fees if applicable. if they give you 2k and it costs you 2 k to buy the car, you'd be shafted on anything beyond that.
