Default What Should I expect to pay for a 05 usp?

I have acouple deals pending I want to see if I am in the right ball park.
A4 Usp v6 3.0 2005 26000k blk/blk Man 6spd every option factory will 50,000 miles I can bring this home for 25,000 bucks
I have another one A4 sliver with black usp 2005 30k on the clock all options brand new tires and brakes they can do it for around 24,300
Just curious to see what I should be paying here on the east coast.
I surely don’t want to over pay and don’t want something so cheap thats it raises a red flag.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated

the second one sounds like a better deal, what engine is in the second one?

Thats the thing the second one is a 1.8t and first one is a 3.0
How important is it to have a CPO car? is it that crucial with an 05?

not sure what CPO means but id go w/ the second one esp. if you plan on modding. the prices sound pretty reasonable, but ive never bought a car that new so im not exactly sure.

CPO=Certified pre-owned...I dont really plan on modding this car..I did the whole modding thing with my GTI..Right now I am just looking for a nice daily that has some decent performance is the 1000 dollar differnce worth for the engine and not having the car certified

Is one of them CPO? (Audi certified pre-owned warranty 2yr. or 100.000)
CPO being crutial for an 05 (and not a 05.5) - not that much, its the last model year of that body style, hopefully most of the major bugs have been worked out.

If a car was $3k-4k more for the same thing, I would buy the one with the CPO, piece of mind can be worth a lot.

options
ebay completed search - see what they've been going for
kbb.com - going to be high
edmunds.com - closer to what you should pay
NADA.com

Other things - are you going to tune? 1.8T has 1000% more things you can do to the car than the 3.0.

thats too high.. i wouldnt give over $20k.... i paid $20k for my 04 USP almost two years ago

but its what its worth to you really... the only time your car is worth money is when you are buying it

if your not modding it and using it as a daily driver get the 3.0 but bring it down to 20k.... I paid 13k for my 2002 3.0 and it had 67k miles on it... I don't think having 17k less miles and 3 years newer would put 12k to the price
