It all depends as not every car listed at $25k is equal. If the car is a late model car being sold near book value, $20K would be considered lowball. If the car is a 90's car in decent shape with $10-15k in mods an offer or $10-15k may be considered lowball by the seller even if it's in reality a very generous offer as too many sellers just don't understand that you will never get back money you put into aftermarket parts. Who in their right mind would pay $25k for a car with a book value of $5-10k mods or not? Too many sellers just don't understand that modifying cars is a money losing proposition and you are best served to part out.
