want a used car that seems to be a little rare.

I have been looking for just the right car and found the right model/features/price I like, but they seem to be very few and far between.

I looked online and there are only about 35 listed in the whole U.S. Am I going to be able to negotiate when I go in to buy or is the low supply going to make this a seller's market?

The car I like is a 2006-2007 Infiniti M35x (AWD) with navigation and under 85,000 miles. I find it listed between $17k and up to $25k.

I would like to get into one for around $18k, every one out there is over 100 miles away from me and I think they will read that I don't plan to make repeat trips and will not budge.

Any advice appreciated.

I guess I should clarify.

The ones within a reasonable distance from me are priced around $19k to $19.5k

Provide a link of one you would consider, and at what price ? and I will check it out for red flags

thanks,

Here's one that seems priced a little better than comps for the year and miles.

That link was kind of long.

Here is the link from the dealer's website too.

And great and informative website by the way.
