Go on Kelly Blue Book and look up the used retail value. Then start looking on places like Craigslist and see what others of the same year and condition are listing for. That'll give you an idea if the price is reasonable.

Always always throw a low ball offer and negotiate from there. Pics and mod lists would help a lot though

Yeah - lowball offer at $2800-3000 - go from there. worst he can say is no. If you get it for what he's asking, at least negotiate a bill of sale for significantly less so you don't get hammered on registration & taxes.
