This required me to give up 1/5 of that in credit card cash rebate, or $266.
I now have a two percent cash back from citi, so now it becomes $532 -- but that one is a recent development.
The thing with the GM Card is you never know the form of the rebate ... if you get "topped off", your earned rebate goes completely by the wayside. I try to max out the card every year mostly from habit; I've had it for 21 years now and it's helped me out quite a bit.
But the main thing is to have it so if they decide to give away some money... and since their various depts don't talk to each other... naturally... amazing deals can be had at odd intervals.

Seems a little rich. I've got one in Cali with 64k for $10k and one in FL with 58k for $9k. So let's say the lower miles pushes this one at that $10k number. Hits their lot at $11k TOPS and puts you at about $13k, maybe $13.5k purchase price. Not CPO, right?

I think it has some upgraded leather interior too.
Non-Mini dealer has it listed for $13,500. They've had it since 12/21/15 according to the Carfax.
Thoughts on trade and thus, fair price?
Thanks!

2020 Acura RDX tech SH-AWD, 2023 Maverick hybrid Lariat luxury package.
Car is marked sold but in reality sold to the Toy Barn in Goshen, IN and is for sale on their site (without pictures). I called and asked about it and then noticed they put the carfax up -same car... Weird...

2013 Nissan Maxima SV Prem, Tech, ~30k miles, Dark Brown, Blue, or Black over Tan.
2014 Honda Accord EX-L, ~30k miles, Brown, Blue, or Black. EX-L w/NAV would work too.
Thanks in advance. Also, I know there are some Audi S4 fans around here so if anyone would like a good read, this ad always gives me a chuckle. Probably been for sale close to a year now.
Maxi - roundabout $19k at the block.
Accord - let's call it a sedan. $17.5-$18k for a 4-cyl and about $19.5k for a 6-cyl.

Any idea on this one might have been at auction.? According to carfax, they have had it since December.
These wagons seem to hold their value pretty well, but finally seem to be coming down a bit. It checks most of our wish list boxes.

That's an extremely interesting ad as it's very similar to the S4 I'm stuck with only mine's got 43K miles and I actually love the car (but hate the accident history; luckily, mine's not salvaged).
Questions I'd pose to the seller:
1) if it's salvage, how can it be only the back bumper was damaged?
2) why don't you want to hear about unbiased KBB values?
3) I don't care if it was only the back bumper repainted; I'm deducting 20% off a clean car value in my offer.
4) Why are the pictures of 2 different cars? Different wheels when you show the back, vs. when you show the front.

I bought the S4 new in northern IL in September 2014. I had surgery in October and didn't drive it much (anfd I still had another car for highway/construction zone duty). On the Friday before Thanksgiving week, I took the Audi to work and crossed the 1000 mile break-in period on the way to my office.
Leaving work, I exited a busy highway and got into the right turn lane at the end of the ramp. Cars were making right turns on red one at a time and eventually I pulled up the front of the line. I think the punks behind me in their parent's newer Volvo S60 weren't paying attention, saw cars pulling onto the surface street and the driver floored it (they assumed the light went green). Too late they saw me stopped, swerved but rammed their front passenger corner into the rear driver corner on my S4. I was totally unhurt but VERY shaken up and upset. The punks (4 guys, maybe late high school or college aged) came along side and one said something about us both pulling over on the main road. I finish my right turn, and start looking for a shoulder (there was none) and drive about 1/2 mile down to a side street. As I near that road, I look around and realize the Volvo IS GONE!! After pulling along side to talk, it passed me & I'd noticed that it had out of state plates (Wisconsin Packer tags) but I missed the number - dangit!! I call for the police and get an accident report - but there's not much he can do.
I get an initial estimate, and after teardown the estimator calls me to tell me that the collision damaged the side and rear frames and crumpled the underside of the trunk. His guess is the cost to repair will be around $20,000 and declares it a total loss. From what I remember, he bases the totalling on the severity of the damage, it being virtually new and my having "Keeper" coverage on my Country policy that will repay me the price of a replacement S4. I was still in shock: my first new car in ~ 10 years, my first Audi, my first hit and run and now.... a big check to cover it. I was/am pretty mad at the guys in that car - these jerks probably went home and told mommy that they didn't know what happened to her S60 instead of taking any responsibility.
I've google'd the VIN a few times and have seen it for sale in Ohio with similar verbiages (about it having been a "minor" collision) and just laugh about the lies. Which also reminds me to skip salvage titled cars too....
And I bought a dashcam for my other car shortly after this. I'd always been meaning to, but my S4 experience made me wish I'd done it sooner.

Thanks for the pricing info. Those were both higher than I expected based on asking prices I'm seeing. How about one more?

I also wonder that since it was my insurance covering the car, they are more likely to "do the right thing." In that $12K/$18K crash, it was the other driver's fault and his insurance covered the repairs.
I looked a little closer to the pics from Autotrader and those are not the wheels that came with my car... mine were 18" and those are 19" wheels (or copies) from the Black Optic package. Here are pictures from the salvage yard: http://www.copart.com/us/Lot/34744894/Photos?SearchId=1189574770
Maybe I should start a collection of accident damaged Misano red S4's.

These vary quite widely. About half come through in poor condition, interestingly enough. I guess they are a source of abuse. My only real comp was one in decent condition, 2300 miles, and manual trans, BUT It was grey. That got $41,000. They might let it go for $43k in a worst-case scenario.
Your target is nowhere near possible. You might be $24k-$25k on yours. There is a HUGE difference for the market between a standard RT and an SRT392.
The reason some are dropping the way you see them is probably because those are the poor condition ones I'm seeing. There are several down in the mid $30s range.

2013 Toyota Prius 3 (backup camera, navigation)
- 57K miles
- 9/10 condition, other than paint damage
- silver paint
- fresh tires
All dealers say repairing the damage won't improve their offer. One dealer tells me they'd rather have their qualified body shop repair than to have it show up on Carfax. Is this true and would this be the case if I decide to return the lease? Meaning... will Toyota charge additional fees because there was an insurance claim?
My lease residual is $15,700.
$300 disposition fee
$1,800 excess mileage (12K miles over)
$750 insurance deductible
Total $2,850 needed to return my lease. The trade-in breaking point is $12,850 so I wouldn't have to pay out of pocket. I know it's the least ideal solution of rolling that over into the next car... but I've been unemployed for 6 months and had to resort to Uber/Lyft driving to keep the bills paid.
Thank you so much in advance!!!
If you're paying 15 cents a mile, rejoice.
It's not going to get a lot cheaper, no matter what you drive. Why not ride out the lease, hope nothing breaks -- a solid bet on a Prius -- and then figure something else out?
That way you're guaranteed a "trade-in value" equal to the residual number, body work be damned.To my mind,this is the biggest advantage of leasing -- loss of value is not my problem.
Good on ya for talking to dealers before having the car repaired. It's good to have options, and I understand where they're coming from with the carfax.
Good luck,

Yes it is in Little Rock at a Infiniti Dealership but it is an auto.
Yes they are high performance cars, so a lot will have drag track wear. Which is why I was after a very low mileage one.
I think the ones I have seen drop to 40k and below have been there close to 100 days. I found one with 1000 miles @41.5 and when I sent them an email they came back with 40.5. When I responded back it was sold and it was almost identical to the white one.
From Edmonds I think they show trade in for the white one around 39.8. So wouldn't wholesale be at least 1k lower? And I think Edmonds had my car trade in @ 26+.
I'm going to wait to check on wh. one until it hits 60 days on lot. Thanks again!
The site I found it on said manual. Just checked again and found a pic. Definitely an auto. Doesn't seem to change the value, though.

They will step up if they feel strongly enough that they'll have no problem retailing your trade or if they really want to get the deal done. It is why Carmax is often higher than a dealer... because Carmax is absolutely keeping it for themselves and you driving it to their door saves them auction fees and transport.
Similarly, they can go even lower if they are selling to a wholesaler. It adds yet another middleman to the process. They'll give you, let's say $1500 under auction, then sell it to the wholesaler for $1k under auction, and then the wholesaler either takes it to the block or sells it to another local used car dealer.
