okay before this guy calls, im asking for some help on pricing these things. i wanna try and hammer the 04 out of him for less than the 03 if thats possible...

let me know what you guys think

03 Element EX AWD 31,951 miles, the all said and done price was $17,658.50
04 Element EX AWD 45,537 miles, they are asking $17,595

IMO there is no benefit to getting a newer car if it has that many more miles so if they try to say "well, it's an 04" my response will more or less be "so what? the 03 is 14k newer as far as im concerned"

if you were in the situation, what would you do? im gonna let them tell me how low they will go on the 04 before i mention anything in terms of $ but how far should i push it?
