thanks for the feedback guys.
Jhayd11, your response was particularly interesting. ill be sure to use this knowledge when i look for a car again.
i checked out clearbook with my options. that lonny dude definitely has issues. he knew the car had 86k on it and it was a CPO and said he would be able to sell it quick so he wanted it.
clearbook says $18k even if he didnt offer an extra for it being a CPO
