She's got this and is looking to, most likely, trade:
2010 Nissan Altima 2.5S
pearl white over grey cloth
All the standard goodies, plus it has some extras:
moonroof
bluetooth phone/audio
rearview camera
dual auto climate
factory alloys
Obviously 2.5 4 cyl/CVT
It's basically a 2.5SL without the leather
Maintenance is current, 2 small (1/2") scratches on the rear bumper from her son loading luggage into the trunk
No hits, runs or errors.
The kicker, as a result of her 120 mile daily commute: 80,000 BIG miles.
She's looking to trade on a 2013 or 14 of the same thing: pearl white 2.5SV
The dealer is hitting her at $7,000
We're in Brunswick, GA, on the coast between Savannah and Jacksonville, FL
What say the masters?
Here are just a few examples in your neck of the woods.

So, the hunt continues. I'll pass the info along.
Premium 1 package - orig msrp $58.5K
Does anyone have any info on current direct trade in offers or have info on recent auction pricing on the vehicle? Thank you
Trade in? Well, this is probably one that could defy logic. I would guess that most non-MB dealers would be a bit scared of it and hit you at $31k-32k. An MB dealer would be smart to keep it below $34k, but you never know. They may fall in love and want to CPO it, if its eligible, and offer as much as 35k.

Only 28,000 miles . Dealer is quoting 14000. Fair price or should i expect some more or less.

I just wanted to check in on the prices for a 2011 Audi Q5 2.0T. I've found two in the Portland area that fall into what I'm looking for. Below are the details:
Both Cars:
Location: Portland OR
Year/Make/Model: 2011 Audi 2.0T Premium Plus
Engine: 2.0Turbo 8-Spd Auto
Driveline: AWD
Car A:
Mileage: 45500
Color: Meteor Grey Pearl (Charcoal)
Major Options: Navigation System, Pano-Sunroof, LED/Xenon Lights, 19" premium wheels.
Condition: Factory Dealer CPO Vehicle, so should be in "Excellent" condition.
Other: Clean History, 1-owner; purchased and maintained from same dealer. I'm assuming that it was a trade-in for a new Audi; was certified and put up for sale 2 weeks ago. Remaining Factory warranty and 100k CPO warranty until 8/2016. The dealer is asking $34900.
Car B:
Mileage: 39400
Color: Quartz Grey Metallic (Medium Silver)
Major Options: Navigation System, Pano-Sunroof, LED/Xenon Lights, 19" premium wheels, Tow Package, Bang & Olufsen sound system.
Condition: Independent Dealer says "Exceptional" condition, service/maint is up-to-date.
Other: Clean History, 1-owner. Looks to have been purchased on 6/10/2013 at Pacific region auto auction; went up for sale on 6/15/2013. Factory warranty good until 4/2015 or 50k miles. The dealer is asking $34995.
I'm not looking to low ball them on price, just want to make sure I know all the facts for negotiations and pay a fair price.
Thanks for any info you can provide! :-)
Year/Make/Model: 2004 Ford F250
Body Style: Lariat Crew Cab
Engine: 6.0 diesel, automatic
Driveline: RWD
Mileage: 87k
Needs new tires, front tires would not pass state inspection. Mechanical condition appears good, drives and shifts okay, AC blows cold. The leather is in good condition, the paint looks good.
It is a one owner, elderly driver who is being forced to sell as he can no longer drive.
How much would this bring at auction?
Knowing that, $33,500 feels better to me on the CPO one. I wouldn't go over $32k on non-CPO, personally.

Wouldn't be surprised if a dealer would step up on it, though. Hell, carmax may even hit it at $10k.

That is pretty much the price range I am aiming for ($32-33.5k). Hopefully the dealers will feel they are fair prices too. (I'm sure not looking forward to paying the negotiation game.)

They aren't the only Porsche Dealer, but after thinking it through, my parents decided they'd like the scheduled maintenance plus they like the way it drives & have a great relationship with the service manager at their local BMW dealer.

that's what happened with my BMW and my previous V70. They were passing them off to wholesalers and the trade wasn't up where I wanted it to be. But then go back to my Infiniti, and that dealer thought it would do great on his lot, so gave me WAY more than I expected. That wound up sitting on his lot for quite a while. No idea what ultimately happened to it.
So, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.

Just found this forum mention elsewhere and am thrilled it exists. Bought this car certified used in 2010 with 37k miles and am looking to get a newer Accord in the next 6 months.
Trying to decide if it is worth trying to trade-in or private sale. I plan on taking it to the dealer I bought the car from to see what they will give me but am looking for a benchmark to make sure I am not getting ripped off. They constantly email me wanting to buy the car but I still owe money on it and I want to make enough on it to pay it off and have some left over for a down payment.
Details below. Thanks in advance!
Location: Westchester County, NY
Year/Make/Model: 2007 Honda Accord LX
Body Style: 4dr Sedan
Engine: 4 cylinder, automatic

Mileage:83,001
Color: Gold exterior (I think they call it Desert Sand or something); Tan cloth interior
Major Options: Standard options
Condition:A couple of very minor dings on exterior. Interior is not pristine but about what would be expected for light tan fabric. No rips or anything like that.
Tires - Replaced all four about a year or so ago
Brakes - Fronts redone in 2012, rears about to be done
Maintenance - I work part-time for a mechanic so I get it regularly maintained
Other: N/a

Near Excellent condition, no body work, windshield replaced last week due to rock chip, brakes all replaced 3,000 miles ago(Back had 2mm left on them and got them to replace the fronts as a warranty issue). Warranty good til 8/2014
Was looking for a real world value since it has such low mileage. Of course I know that if I trade it in I will get less money than if I sold it privately, but I also know to take what a dealer offers and add tax to it to see what I would save on taxes on the new car. Question is, the amount of tax on my trade in will surpass the tax owed on a lease, what happens with the excess money in taxes on the trade-in? Do they apply as down payment? Or do I just eat it?
Thanx!

As for your car, about $21k-22k for a 2-door or about $19k-19,500 for a 4-door.

A really nice vehicle that should probably not go to a dealer but straight onto Auto trader. I know this is a 7 year old vehicle, almost 8 but the miles are low and I have kept it up nicely and get stopped frequently and asked if it's this years model. Would love to get $11k but know that is foolish. What say the master here as I'd really love something new and FUN!!

I have nothing to compare it to.
the above average examples with 75k miles are doing $7500-$8k. Those will wind up retailing for damn near $11k, so I don't see why you couldn't do that with yours.

Carfax shows a one owner out of suburban Philadelphia, by way of the Honda sale at FAAO.
Overall in above average shape. The bumpers show a little evidence of life on the streets of Philadelphia, but otherwise nothing a visit to the detail shop won't fix.
The dealer is 75 days into this, having bought it at the end of July, so they are getting motivated to move it along.
Asking price is $23,185, which seems to be in line with the others on offer in Jacksonville, FL.
This is at THE Honda dealer in Brunswick, Georgia, 60 miles north of Jacksonville.

Looking across the numbers, it looks like the average is around $20k.
So their price is reasonable enough. Any extra off is just bonus.

Best ballpark guess is $14k.
That's a 3.5 liter, BTW.

The Carfax shows it "offered for sale" at the same dealer that has it on 8/27/13, but doesn't show where they got it from. My guess would be Orlando, because this dealer is part of the big group based in Atlanta (that starts with an S, and the family sold their namesake dealers except this one to Asbury), and since they're based down here, PA is a long way to go for an auction.
VIN ends in 024305 if that's any help.
I'm glad they're reasonable on their numbers, unlike the Hyundai dealer that quoted me $8,000 OVER their website price on a non-CPO Genesis. Needless to say, I won't be going back.
Good luck with your purchase.

You made me curious, and I did a little online searching.
This article which appears to be from 2010 says:
http://hffo.cuna.org/12433/article/1170/html
“Nearly 10 million used vehicles were sold through auctions last year, according to Manheim Auctions”.
And Wikipedia says, “In 2005, about 44 million used cars were sold in the U.S.”
This article from February of 2013 says:
http://editorial.autos.msn.com/blogs/autosblogpost.aspx?post=91bf2fef-50e6-4926-- 8f34-32fc16cbfebc
“About 40.5 million used vehicles changed hands last year.”
From this, we can infer that about 1 in 4 used cars go through the auctions.
The quote was from Manheim, but they just said "through auctions," not "through OUR auctions."
I'm a very picky fact checker.
