$5200 good price for 2008 new ninja 250R?

Question

new ninja 250's are hard to find in canada but i actually found one and the sales rep says he can sell it to me for around 5200 (with tax and everything). i know they re alot cheaper in the U.S. but canada gets a very limited amout every year and they go like wildfire. can anyone give me a bit of insight as to whether this is a good price or am i getting gouged??

Answer 1

no its not a good price, here is what kelly blue book says;

Suggested Retail Value $2795

The Kelley Blue Book Suggested Retail Value is representative of dealers' asking prices and is the starting point for negotiation between a consumer and a dealer. This Suggested Retail Value assumes that the unit has been fully reconditioned and is in excellent condition. Mileage/condition and additional equipment may have a substantial impact on the value shown above. This value also takes into account the dealers' profit, costs for advertising, sales commissions and other costs of doing business. The final sale price will likely be less depending on the unit's actual condition, popularity, type of warranty offered and local market conditions.
