Python - Selenium returning empty results w/ all methods

Question

This has been asked before but none seems to solve my issue.

I try to locate an element in this page, but fail at my attempts:

driver = webdriver.Chrome()
driver.set_window_size(0, 0)
driver.set_window_position(0, 0)
url = "https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/2003/Aston+Martin/DB7"
driver.get(url)
print (driver.find_element_by_xpath("//span[@data-qaid='txt-lowest-price']").text)
driver.close()

I can not scrape any other data from this page either (by_id, by_name, by_class_name, by_css_selector), all returning empty texts.

Any suggestion or feedback will be welcomed and greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

try replacing:

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//span[@data-qaid='txt-lowest-price']").text

with:

driver.find_element_by_xpath("//span[@data-qaid='txt-lowest-price']").get_attribute('textContent')
