Should I jump on a BS with 1k miles for $86k

Just wondering if 86k is a GrEAT DEAL for a BS with 1k miles and perfect condition in black color? You guys think I can do a little better or should I jump on this one?

If you really want it, then buy it.
If your just fishing for price, wait until they start going up again and buy just off the bottom.

Yes, BS resale prices vary from $79K for a car with a lot more miles to $89K+ for a car with fewer miles, so $86K is reasonable. I have 9.5K miles on my Iridium Silver BS and would not take less than $85K for it today.

That's a pretty unique opportunity- an essentially unused BS for $47,000 less than most of us paid. If you want a BS, that's about as good as it gets. If you keep the car 5 years, it really won't matter if you could have gotten a little more off the price. You will feel stupid if you miss it. AS

Black series are going no more than $80,000 in this current economy. However for 1k miles I guess the price can be justified.

If all tend to agree that $86K is a good price in today's market, then it appears that the BS has increased in price from same time last year...

Resale prices appear to be holding at least for now as more enthusiasts discover the uniqueness and desirability of owning a BS. Although there will always be several for sale I think over time the BS will increasingly become a niche-car collectible which should help moderate their resale value slide. JMHO-

It was a very nice Video, just needs sub-titles.

Yeah, I know. They will follow when the vid is posted to YouTube. This is just a prerelease since the "editor in chief" wasn't posting this soon enough for my liking

Thanks! We had a professional guy do it though. With 2 camera standpoints, an assistant and another car to shoot from.
