This is a great thread. Many thanks to all the contributors. I'd love some input on what sort of trade-in value I might expect on my car:
2007 Honda Accord
SE V6
74,000 miles
Very clean interior, Good exterior conditiion (minor scratches, no dents)
Never been in an accident, never had any mechanical problems. Has relatively new tires and just passed inspection.
Thanks in advance.

Bought it in January this year this year as a CPO vehicle.
Color Ginger Ale, aka light metallic green. Interior black.
Everyone thinks it is new, but I would rate the condition as average.
SEL is heated leather seats, touch screen, 18 inch alloys, over SE model.
I live in 06xxx zip code, but looking to trade in in 53xxx zip code.
28.5k miles when I would get to 53xxx(Wisconsin).

Accord - you should be able to squeeze $7k out of the right dealer. Although, with Accords, you just never know. Somebody might hit you at $6k and somebody else might lose their mind and overpay.
Escape - hmmm... could be a tough color, and it has already had 2 owners. I'm gonna have to hit it a bit low and say $18k.

Its my understanding that they are currently the #1 resale vehicle, plus they are not made anymore.
Thanks!
@Stickguy, I'm not moving, just found something I'm interested in. Maybe kind of a bucket list thing. Keeping my Fusion, which is paid for.
2014 Altima with 10k miles ... $18k-$18.5k.
2013 FJ ... well, I'm a bit curious about those mods. If anything extreme, you may have DECREASED the value. But I'll give you a stock number anyway... about $27-28k.

anyway, what is reasonable to shoot for. It is a 2007 S40 2.4i. Blue over tan leather. premium (roof, fancy radio, leather) and climate (bun warmers and headlight washers). 111,000 miles. AT.
some normal parking lot nicks and scratches on the outside. Interior is very clean though. Clean carfax (nothing but regular dealer services). I just had it through the local Volvo dealer for service, and it got a clean bill of health (really needs nothing now). newer tires with deep tread. 4K on brakes and all new (Sachs) suspension bits (those weren't cheap!).
based on this, what do you think fair asking/taking should be? What a dealer likely hits it at would be nice to know also.

Someone shows up with 58 Benjamin's, I probably suck it up and take it. Won't be happy of course!

she also wants a Navi like in the Sonata.
but don't worry, upgrading the RDX is definitely not in the budget. Now, if she wanted to trade it in on a CX-5, could make those #s work (taking some cash back out of the deal). Of course, that is not bigger, and not as "fancy"
so just leave this one in the "ain't gonna happen" category. unless of course, it does!

Scheduled to pick it up Friday, but won't have the final lease sheet until Thursday. I'll believe it's happening when the deal is closed.
Happy wife, happy life....more thoughts and details once closed.
If I could get that car at that price on a 3 year lease, I would have it already!

right now a 24 month makes no sense to me. I need something that will get us through 3 more years until graduation.

She currently has a 2013 Honda CRV AWD. EX-L with Navigation. Grey exterior/grey interior. 28,8xx miles. Located in NY. She owes $15,8xx and was offered $20,000 trade in.
Looking at replacing it with a 2013 Land Rover LR2. Dealer said it is an HSE with navigation and backup camera. White exterior, tan leather interior. Just under 9,000, dealer says it was a service loaner. Asking $32,900.
I have never looked at Land Rover and honestly dont know anything about them, but she went to the dealer and said she is happy with the car. I would insist on driving the car myself before we make a decision, but is there anything I should be concerned with? She drives between 20,000 and 22,000 miles per year so she would rack up miles pretty quick
Thanks in advance
You could buy a new $50K Acura or Lexus and come out ahead over 4-5 years.

Not a car IMO for major miles like that.
