Purchase advice for a used murano

[gman123469]

Hello,

I have a potential deal in the works for a used 2005 Murano S and would like to get some advice on what others might think as well as a sanity check.

It's a 2005 white murano S with FWD and has about 98,000 miles. Carfax says it's been one owner, no collision damage, and appears to have been maintained well. It's being sold by a local Lexus dealership - someone probably traded it in.

I've been quoted an $8950 out the door price for the car. Blue book has the car at about $8,000.

The price sounds reasonable - I'm ok with them making a bit of a profit on the car. I'm looking for a crossover size SUV to replace my little civic. my plan is to use this car for 3-4 more years and then get a new car.

What do you guys think about the deal?
