Queen of the Road: Hi there. Welcome to AutoBragBlog! $18k is too high. Begin a negotiation at $15k and compromise somewhere in between the range below. Make sure to check the history of the car.
For a 2007 Hyundai Santa Fe 2WD V6 2.7L GLS with 15,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $15,600 (being in above average condition) to $14,700 (being in average condition) and $13,800 (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 $15,400 to $17,300. 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.
