Sunroof closing?

A quick Question,

Does the sunroof on the 2nd gen RXs close all the way? All of the ones I hav seen do NOT close all the way. I'm looking at a GTU that has a sunroof and the sunroof doens't close flush. If it doens't close right I can get some $$ off the price.

Thanx, Alex

OK. good

The car I'm looking @ does not close all the way.

How much to fix?

A barganing chip worth how much $1000, $2000??

They wanted $8,200 for It, but I got him down to $6,200 with minimal barganing. I'm hoping to get down to sub $5,000.


Thanks for the help.

It better be a perfect S5 TII to be that expensive!

Ya, it's at a used car dealership.

with Aaron Cake's site and his buying tips, I think I can get it for arround $4,500, maby less. The exterior is in amazing shape allong with the interior.

I have not driven it yet though.

$6,200 is WAY too steep for what the car is.

I'm gonna try to get him as low as I can before bringing in my dad.

It seems to me that an adult can make a larger impression than a 17 year old.

That is way to expensive for a GTU. For comparison....I paid 6000 for a 91 T2 last year....62k, catback, and turbo timer. This was a non-carlot sale. Your going to have to haggle some more or go to Autotrader.com and check out their prices.
