Well, it's an S, which is nice, but it's also a Tip, which is not (for
me). A Tip should be good for commuting, but it dings the value
slightly, I think. The s****t seats are a nice option and it doesn't
have high miles.
I don't like it when a vehicle changes hands too quickly. It makes me
nervous, but it could all be for legit reasons. I would also have to
personally inspect it (followed by a professional inspection) and know
that it was never driven in a Maryland winter on salted roads. It is
cancer to a car.
If my concerns were allayed, I would say that the BIN isn't
unreasonable. I see these things priced all over the place. A swing of
$8-10k is not uncommon depending upon options, mileage, etc.
There's one for sale in my neck of the woods right now for $18.5k
(almost exactly the same, but a 6-speed with less miles) and a 2001 for
$27k. $20.5k looks like it is middle of the pricing spectrum for a 2000
S. $22k would probably be too high.
You'd have to know the history a bit better, but if you got it around
$18k, it'd be a snappy bargain. Under $18k would be a steal.
