And, actually, now that I look, Edmunds hits it spot on. $13,758 trade-in. They've gotten much much better in their valuations. KBB hits it at $14,344, so not too far off there. Biggest mistake people use is considering their car excellent condition or even above average. Those valuations just aren't used by car dealer when you are trading in. There is the rare exception, but your CRV certainly doesn't sound like it would fall into that category.
As for carmax, you'd have to go there and find out. They do crazy things in that place.
Private party? Well, its a Honda, so that's often a good route to go with those. You could probably shoot for something crazy like $16,995 and see what happens. If it were my vehicle, I'd be happy selling at $15,500 or better. Anything less than that and I'd just as soon trade it in. $13,800 plus the tax savings is the equivalent of $14,766 (I don't know how California works in this regard).

I'm gonna hit the Carmax, I will let you know what they offer. Anything over 15,900 and I will be happy.

Its not an EX-L, right??
An EX with those miles should be more like $16k trade-in. So I think Edmunds may be a little light on that one, as a matter of fact.

The EX-L is what I wish I bought at the time, none in stock anywhere, that is what I am looking to trade up for.
The 16k number sounds in line with what I have seen other places. Thank you again.
1999 Lexus GS400
4dr Sedan
4.0L, 8 cyl
141,500 Miles
Ext Color: Spectra Blue Mica
Int Color: Ivory Leather
Options: Spoiler, power moonroof, 17" chrome Wheels, Nakamichi sound w/ 6cd changer
Condition: Fair to Good
Exterior: some scratches n side and rock chips on hood, normal scratches on bumpers, 75% tread on tires
Interior: Very good
Mechanical: Needs front brakes and flex pipes (2) for exhaust (was quoted $300 to repair but not sure its worth it at this point, although exhaust issue is audible)
Other: Previous front end collision, fully repaired, no frame damage
Hoping to sell to CarMax or similar - don't have time or inclination for private sale and already purchased replacement vehicle so no option to trade-in. Near certainty that CarMax or other would send to auction.
All feedback welcome.
I'm thinking about buying this car and wanted to get peoples' thoughts. On the carfax it is listed as a "rental". How much should I be worried about that? I think it's a pretty good deal, but worried that it's been driven hard as a rental. When I test drove it, it was really smooth and the car looks to be in good shape.
Location: Los Angeles, CA

Engine: 6 cylinder auto

They are asking for $35k.

Just keep in mind that, depending on your situation and where you live, it could be a loss vs trading it in.
For example, if I were to get $16k as a trade-in on a new vehicle here in NJ, I would also get an $1120 tax credit. So I'd be losing $120 selling it outright for $17k.

If it is a Mercedes CPO, that's a great price. If it is not a Benz dealer, then its just an OK price. I'd probably be looking at $500-$1k off, but you wouldn't be crazy to pay the asking price, either, as long as it checks out.

That is a ridiculously long list and a crazy amount of work for someone to compile. I don't think you realize just how many cars go through auction every week.

2007 Carrera S coupe
6sp manual
65k miles
silver
leather, lots of bells & whistles, don't have details.
Supposedly worth mid-$30s, which may be right but seems high to me for 7 years old and moderately miley. Of course, it's a Porr-Shah, so what do I know...
Thanks in advance,
-Mathias
Your friend's has lower miles.
BUT, I'm sure a Porsche dealer is looking to pay a few thousand less on a trade.

My friend is not looking to trade -- he just bought the car from a dealer in Chicago. He paid 35 thousand dollars for it. It sounds like he got a great deal.
Cheers -Mathias
I have to say, that's pretty cheap for a 7 yr old 911...

2013 Hyundai Veloster
Blue, base model with auto trannie. No additional option packages.
5k miles. Condition as you'd expect - practically new.
Possible candidates (auction and what say you for good price offer):
2010 VW Jetta SE w/auto
Blue exterior/Black leatherette. 30k miles. CPO at VW dealer.
2011 VW Golf base model w/auto
Gray exterior/black cloth. 28k miles. CPO at VW dealer.
2005 Acura TSX non-nav w/auto
Light Blue exterior/Gray leather. 33k miles. At an Acura dealer, but obviously too old for CPO.
Thanks for your help!
2024 Audi Q8 e-tron - 2024 Corvette - 2024 BMW X5 - 2023 Tesla Model Y
Jetta ~$10.5k ... CPO? $14k?
Golf 2-door?? about the same as the Jetta.
TSX I can't help much with given the crazy low miles. Best ones with ~60k sell for $10.5 as well. sooo... I dunno... $12k? $13k? Retail for $15k?

As much as my wife and I like hatchbacks, my stepdaughter actually likes the sedans more, so I think a jetta will be the answer. Plenty of them out there, so that's easy. We'll have her look at the tsx too, but I'm kinda with stickguy - unless they come way down on price, I feel better about the 3 year old VW than the 8 year old Acura, given the same cost.
Thanks again.

Not sure you want to put that stigma on your daughter... ;-)

One more, maybe final candidate (as discussed on the CCBA forum):
2008 Audi A3 2.0T FWD automatic (s-tronic)
Blue exterior/beige leather
37k miles
Premium package, cold weather, pano sunroof.
Overall good condition, though it does have a small scrape on the front bumper.
Clean, one owner carfax.
At an Acura dealer, so not CPO.
Deal on the table (that we walked away from) is the Veloster plus $1,000. Figuring the $15k value on the Hyundai, they're at $16k for the Audi - I guesstimated a trade value of $13k on the A3, and pushed for a straight swap, but dealing stalled at the $1,000. Uncharacteristic of us, we walked away to think about it, but are strongly considering it.
Thoughts on the A3 pricing? Thanks!
