Looking very seriously at this car, wondering if blue book values are accurate or if it's worth less or more. Welcoming opinions...
2006 A3 3.2 S-Line
14,200 miles
Black/black
Nav system
Open Sky
Xenons
Bluetooth
Heated Seats
Extras: Clearbra, Tint, Upgraded 18" wheels (not sure the make yet), Diamond Fusion front windshield
Seller is asking $33,000. Private party book values are pretty agreeable at $32,000.

i've seen a few with lower miles for roughly the same price if not a little bit less. im sure you could work somethin down.

Hmm, that price is a little high if you ask me. It should be down to at least 29,000
I got a brand new '07 audi a3 s-line, black/black, nav, xenons, and 18" wheels, however no heat package or tints, for $30,000.
I did work a good deal, it took some time, but i got it.
the heated package + window tints shouldn't add up to a few thousand dollars
Awesome car!!!!! but push the price down, if you are looking for cheaper.

Is the A3 you just got a 2.0T or 3.2? This is a 3.2 that I'm looking at.
He's come down to $30k so it may be worthwhile after all. Anyone think $30k is a smoking deal or should I get him down to $28k (my overall goal if I buy this car).

You're definitely in the game at that price; I know that 07's have been 32.5 - 36, depending on mileage and equipment, and that the cheapest nice '06 I saw went for 28.3. If you like this car and can knock it down a bit more, I'd say go for it-it sounds very well equipped.
What is Diamond Fusion, BTW.?

Apparently it makes your glass bead water better, become more chip resistent and is just better overall. Personally, I could care less about it but if it has it then it has it. I don't suppose it can be a bad thing.

The windshield coating you can do yourself. I have a coat of Diamondique, but Aquapel is probably the best. Rain-X is a distant 3rd.
29K still sounds like a good deal. At that mileage, you can thank him for breaking the motor in for you while you get the best of the rest of the car.
