Question should i buy this daytona for 18k

i found a dodge ram daytona for sale and it has 20k miles for 18,995 + taxes and every thing else but after talking over and over he finnaly said 18,000 including what ever else they charge for....but my only concern is that the front lip is kinda falling from one side...is that fixable....and is this a good deal to buy

As the others said, market sucks. Mine is FS for 14.7 and not a call. I at least hope that is a 4x4 for that high price.

The fact that you can get a newer one for the same price...tell him it doesn't have mds which can save you gas. Also mention that front lip...

Also look at this... http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VIPER...QQcmdZViewItem
For about 3k more you are looking at an srt-10 with the same miles on it (I'm not saying that you should buy it obviously, I'm just saying that this puts into perspective that 18k for a daytona is a bit much)
