Looking at a 2004 Murano SL AWD with SL Touring, Dynamic Control, Navigation Systems, Floor Mats, Splash Guards, Carog Area Protector and Sunroof Wind Deflector. The MSRP is $37,710, but the car is a dealer demo with 4,000 miles. Dealer is offering a $4,000 discount (price $33,710). I think the price is too high. According to Edmunds.com, the dealer invoice for a brand new vehicle with options is $34,313 and TMV $36,047. I read an article that suggested that a demo discount should be 15% of MSRP and .15 per mile, hence the price would be approx $31,500, not $33,710.
1. Any valuation suggestions?
2. Is $33,710 too high?
3. What might be a fair price for this vehicle?

I think it is too high...I paid 34,000 even for an 04 NEW with the same features...

Run Edmunds on that car (used) with 4k. Take the figure to your dealer to negotiate.

You should be able to get a new Mo for that price, I would not buy a used Mo for any price. you will be better off to get a new one for close to 33,500-34,500. You will want to know what the car has been through during the break-in period.

Don't buy used/demo/manager special unless it is very cheap, 4000-5000 below invoice. and they give you an extended warranty.

My 2003 MO SL AWD was only a little north of 30K. It too was a demo but had no NAV, no Dynamic Control, and 6000 miles. Otherwise though, it was loaded.

Sgt_Beavis, what was the invoice price for your Mo?

30,000+ seems like a lot for an 2003 with 6000 miles.

I agree with the others - it is too high. I paid @ 34k for mine new.
