How Much Should I Pay: 2006 Acura MDX
Question From Derrick: I am in the market for 2006 Acura MDX Touring and I see one for ~38k miles no dvd or nav. Dealer asking for 21k. VIN: 2HNYD186X6H510120. I thought it was kinda high.
Queen of the Road: Hi Derrick. Welcome to AutoBragBlog! $21k is a fair price, but check the carfax for anything.
For a 2006 Acura MDX Touring with 38,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $22,900 (being in above average condition) to $20,800 (being in average condition) and $18,800 (being in below average condition).
A fair range for a dealership sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $20,700 to $25,100. A private seller will usually aim to sell it for 5%-10%.
Check the carfax and do plenty of research on the history of the vehicle. Ask for their maintenance records. You can even bring a mechanic for a brief inspection. Here’s a good article to read before continuing: Car Buying Tips From An Insider. Let me know if you have any further car questions.
