LINDAL Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 I am looking at a dark blue 2000 DTS. It has an (offwhite) carriage top, with rocker panels and chrome above the wheels. It has 111,000 miles on it. The asking price is $9,990.00. I live in Southern Illinois. Does the carriage top make it worth less? How much should I offer her for the car? I think it is missing the emblem in the grill. I am assuming that means replacing the grill. It looks like around $300 for a new grill. I have not driven the car yet but I will in the next few days. She is really wanting me to make her an offer. She is the finance manager at the dealership trying to sell her car on their lot. It will be covered by a 3 month/3000 mile warranty with the 36 month/36000 available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomsrig Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 Before purchasing the 2000 Caddie, grab the latest 2007 Consumer Report and look up Cadillac and your model. Then look at all Cadillacs from 2004 to 2006. These figures might help you make a more informed decision. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

95SevilleSLS Posted March 28, 2007 Report Share Posted March 28, 2007 She says the emblem is not missing that it has night vision. I've heard about night vision before, what exactly do people mean when they are talking about that? On caddy's that is. I know what night vision goggles are! -Dusty- - 02 Seville STS, white diamond - 93 Sixty Special, Tan with vinyl top - 79 Coupe DeVille, Tan with Tan top - 06 GMC Sierra Z71, Black - 92 Silverado C1500, black and grey - 83 Chevy K10 Silverado, Black and Grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ranger Posted March 29, 2007 Report Share Posted March 29, 2007 Does the carriage top make it worth less? To me it does, but hat is a personal thing I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
