Looking at a 2wd Rav4, 2005 model with 4500 miles. They are asking 19,500. Wondering what I should offer them below that.

What options does it have? I just bought my 06 base RAV4 2WD with a few options (I-4 motor) for 20,850.

Not sure really. I'm assuming its base. Does mention keyless entry which was an option
Here is the link to their site.

Looks pretty good. It has a few extra options that the 06 does not inculde in the base. Security system, side air bags, steering wheel radio contols. I see it has a 100,000 mile warranty also.
I would test drive a 06 and see how you like it compared to the 05. Not sure if the 05 would be worth that much but probably close.

Well. I don't think we are going the 06 route. Main reason being, no nav option!.The Rav would be my wifes around town car an she swears by nav. If we get an 05 or earlier model we can add a Camry OEM nav unit. We did sit in the 06 and there seemed to be more blind spots with the larger c-pillars
