Ok so im looking for that new TJ(used but new to me) and i found this one. went a took a look not to far from me and its the same place i got my current YJ from just wanted to know if the price was fair or what some of you might pay for it. I plan on trying to trade mine in with all the extras and the dual tops and get around 35-4250.00 if possible and then cash for the rest. take a look and let me know what you think>

I think the price is a little high for that kinda milage. But on the other had in that picture the thing looks imaculate as far as the condition.
I wish I could look at the underside... But I would say that is a diecent price. I would try to knock a little off the top though if I was bartering for it. And with a trade in it is easier to talk them down typically.
I'm sure you heard the saying cash is king. And if your paying cash for the rest after the trade I have a feeling you can talk them down quite a bit.

yeah, I agree with pdapkus. It is a little on the high side. I would try to buy it for 9200 cash and see what he says. You prob wont be able to buy it for that but just get a feel for how much this guy is willing to accept in order to part with it

Congrats man. Looks like a nice Jeep. Personally, for that price, I would have found one that was already built, though.
I'm sure you heard the saying cash is king. And if your paying cash for the rest after the trade I have a feeling you can talk them down quite a bit.
Cash is NOT king if you are buying from a dealer. You pay cach at a dealer, you WILL pay more for the vehicle 99 out of 100 times. Throw a trade in? You're even more screwed. Don't even mention the trade if possible until the end of the deal. I know it's not always possible, but that trade will hurt you more than help.

yea its awsome. big jump fom my 4cyl YJ. the price was good(imo) i got a 1 year warrenty with it so i guess cant really complain on the pricebeing a lil high. I didnt do a trade in cuz they would only give me 2500 for mine so im gonna sell it myself.
