P500 2018 P500, Good Price?

[MrGrim]

We looked at a 2018 P500 yesterday. Private seller. Said he'd take $8k (had it listed for $8,600).

Has a roof, windshield, rear plastic window, Harbor Freight winch, 800 miles/100 hours.

Overall it seems to be in pretty good shape. Few dents here and there. Needs an oil change and mud/dirt removed. Ran good - although I'm not sure how the transmission was supposed to feel, shifted hard than I thought it would, but it sounds like that's how they shift?

Is this a good price? They seem hard to find right now. I called a dealer and they'll have and handful in next week. $9,750 plus tax for a new one.

Thanks!

Seems a bit high to me.

Think the P500 price dropped with the 520 release. Maybe do a NADA value for your zip code. Here is Ga area without HF winch, so maybe add $50 used value if a 3500. Just a guess.

 

[MrGrim]

Thanks - never thought to check NADA! They did drop the price to around $8,400 for a new one. With dealer fees it's $9,750 + tax. So, over $10k for a new one.

Forgot to say that it probably needs new tires, which is why he went down $600. I'll see if I can get him to go any lower...

Yea but u also got a brand new machine that there's no question about what has happened to it it the last 2 years

$7500

 

[MrGrim]

Thanks - I offered him $7,500 about 30 minutes ago, but haven't heard back. I'm sure he thinks it's a lowball offer. But I think that's a fair offer.

 

[Raghorn]

Yeah, $7500 sounds closer to what I'd expect. Especially if you are going to have to detail and do the maintenance immediately to begin with.

 

[futzin]

Needs tires, cleaning and has trail rash. Nothing really wrong with any of that but he's not trying very hard. Your offer is fine.

I agree, it’s funny how some people ask a premium price for something but won’t even put a little time into cleaning or serving the machine before putting it up for sale. Even though I haven’t seen the machine I would be leaning towards 7500 as the Max price.

 

[Todd627]

I also agree that your $7,500 offer is good for both parties. If he balks at it, there will be other used machines come up or the new option will be there too.

 

[HiFive]

Agree $7500 is a fair price especially because of the mileage and hours and maintenance cost.

You rarely find one used around here in NW Oregon.
Supply and demand.... High demand, low supply = high prices. Especially when you can't even get a new one.
Same with Pit bikes, RV's/toy haulers etc.....

This is old but I'll add my input.

I know I personally would go lower face to face.

When someone asks what the lowest I will take over a text message I don't like it. If it is in person and they point out a few things, I usually drop a little more than I would over the phone.

So, If it's close enough, bring $7,500 and look at it in person. If you don't like it or the guy won't go lower, walk away!
