Default What's a fair price for a 2006 XK8 Conv. Victory Edition

Around 50,000 miles, one owner. What would you say a reasonable price is?

I also should have asked what significantly changed in 2006.

I understand the change in 2003-2005.

Thank you.

Some people really like the "special edition" cars, but they are mostly cosmetic and that is not a reason for me to spend a lot of money on one. 06 is the last year for that body style and again is cause for some to spend more. 50K is a little less than average mileage, so I would just go to KBB or Edmunds and look it up.

I agree with Lew. Is this a local car available in your area? If so you should do an autotrader or cars.com search to see what XK8/XKR are selling for in your geographic area. Prices for these vehicles can vary quite a bit but with a little research you should home in on the right ballpark.

Whatever the market will pay for it is the fair price. I.e. start high and lower it gradually if selling.

the first XK8 I seriously considered was a 2006 VE w/ ~33k miles. the dealership apparently sold it for the 27k they were asking, that was around Jan-Feb this year.

Thanks folks. That sounds spot on for what I saw with a few more miles.

I think I'm going to focus on the 2003 to 2005 years due to my budget. I have ruled out the pre-2003 models due to the positive changes that began in 2003.

Cheers.

If you can stretch it, look at XKR also. I am guessing that a one year older XKR would be about the same price as a given year XK8 (or at least pretty close).

I just bought an '06 carbon fiber edition/nav with 48K miles for $25,400. The car is extremely clean and has an extensive service history.
