You could go inspect it and point out flaws.

Life is pretty short I wouldn't let a few hundred dollars stand in the way of having a nice car. Overpaying a bit for my e53, so that I got it, and not someone else, was one of the smartest things I ever did. It is a tank.
I have tried it all. They're so set on the $16k they want. Originally they had it at $19k but no one was biting. KBB has this thing at $9k for a private party transaction which i think is hard for them swallow.
