    Hi Terry,

    I'm looking to either trade or sell my 03 Mitsu Lancer Evolution. Its got 44k miles, Carbon fiber wing option, no sunroof, a few minor scratches, never hit, with not much tread left on the tires. Car is detailed to perfection though and runs 100% otherwise.

    Looking to either purchase a 01 or 02 Saab 9-3 'SE' 4dr hatchback through a dealer CPO program.
    I've seen them advertised between 17-21k.
    I'm located in CT.

    Thank you,
    -Rob

    Terry,

    I am being referred to your expertise by kyfdx. (Thanks to kyfdx.)

    Can you please let me know if the following is a good deal, of course, provided that the CarFax and other checks come out okay? If not, what should I shoot for?

    2000 328Ci Coupe
    Manual
    45,000 Miles
    Silver Metallic
    Black Leather
    Xenon
    H/K Audio
    Moonroof

    Dealer was asking for $25,500 - 3 months ago. However, is now asking for $21,970. I am thinking of going in with a check for $20,000 + TTL.

    I do not know the packages that it is equipped with. These are the options that I could see when on the dealer lot.

    I truly appreciate your help.

    Thank you.

    It is definitely going to end up on their front lot. They offered me $12.5K within 5 minutes. I think the 4x4 clinches it since they are hard to get in this area but do well in winters.

    I should have tried a private party sale. It was due for smog and registration so that would have been another $200 in the next few weeks.

    Would a car dealer consider a profit-sharing deal? I put the car on their lot, agree to a base price and then ask for 35% of what they make on the deal on top of that. This way I do not have to sell the car to a private party and they have another vehicle to sell with zero carrying costs. In a way I am using their sales force to sell my truck; their incremental costs are zero. However, they may not be as motivated to sell it for me versus the other vehicles they have.

    Anyway, now the money in the bank and the SUV on their lot; no point in crying over spilt milk.

    I will shortly be trading both of my cars and hoped I could get some accurate values from you.

    2001 Mercedes CL600 - 18K - sport package, exterior is nice but interior has been smoked in and needs a good cleaning.

    2002 Ford F350 - 41K - crewcab shortbed, diesel, lariat, every option, good condition (needs tires, a wash and wax, has a couple of minor scratches).

    Any thoughts?

    Thanks in advance.
  • mjfloyd1mjfloyd1 Member Posts: 3,806
    nofo,

    Terry will need more info to get you an accurate valuation. Please give him location (not zip code), exterior color, interior color and material (cloth or leather), what options the vehicle has (sunroof, cd changer, etc), automatic or manual transmission, tires - new / %tread left, do all 4 match, service all up to date?, etc.

    **no point in crying over spilt milk** ...

              Your right, that was then and this is now ....

                There should be a large minority of dealers in your area that would enjoy selling a Clean low mileage vehicle and going by a percentage after the sale .. the reason why most of these don't pan out is, the owner wants some crazy figure for it and is unreasonable come sale time .. then the dealer, the salesman lose all interest and it becomes a bug catcher.

    Hey Terry,

    Thanks for the post! I really appreciate the time you took to evaluate my truck and I love reading your posts.

    I ended up with $13,500 for the Vue on a trade-in for a Toyota Avalon. I'm happy with that and the Avalon is awesome!

    Thanks again!

    Terry,
    You were right on target awhile back with your price thought on an old but clean taurus. So I gotta go back to the well one more time...

    Now for question, on a 97 explorer with 97K on the odometer. Clean truck and all maint. done...

    Transmission slipping bad in last two days and dealer sez replace NOW. I agree with that but now who does it is the next question.

    Local guy w/ 1 year warranty wants 1800 to replace with rebuilt.
    Done that before and no problems w/ it.

    Dealer wants 1800 to START transmission surgery and we go from up there $$. They want me to trade it.

    If I decide that route, do I take KBB wholesale minus the repair??

    If I repair, how much can I go back on retail road with an asking price on my rig, with just one parking lot kiss, got the sunroof, 6 disc cd power buckets, boards in the great northeast where ford must have sold 300,000 of the over 400,000 explorers they made THAT year. SOHC has been fine but that warranty from Ford goes away in 3,000 miles too!

    I hate to get taken to the wholesale woodshed. I have always sold good clean vehicles privately in the past.

    Any advice Terry? The patient is in the chair.
  • corvettecorvette Member Posts: 11,280
    You've already replaced the transmission once on this car, or was that another car the guy worked on? If it's not burning or leaking oil, losing coolant, in good physical condition, I'd pay the local guy $1800 to replace it (unless he's already done it once), hold on for another 6-12 months, and reevaluate.
  • kscctsksccts Member Posts: 140
    Interesting. I have never heard an Avalon referred to as awesome. All depends on your experience I guess.

             ==================================

             I don't have a *Location, so there could be a big difference ...

                  3 months.? ... the dealer has had this dude for 3 months...? if you live in Fargo North Dakota, three months is way too long, even if it is a handshaker and coupe' .. check the history and the vehicle ...

                   The miles are low for the year, the color is good anywhere, we have the slider, tunes, hydes, toys and the blinders ... if the rubber is deep, the service is finished, no oh uh it's Maaco, no killer bee's in the interior, no curb rashes, just a clean/nice well maintained Bimmer ..

                   Depending on where you live (cuz' this little dude will do more money in Seattle and Riverside than in Nashville) then you could start out at $20,0 and maybe finish at $21,0 -- IF it's nice .......

    Thanks Corvette,
    Makes me feel better...

    To clarify, I meant that I went to the same mechanic once before for a pontiac minivan tranny swap and he did a great job.
    This is the original explorer tranny, but was flushed by the dealership every two years as preventitive measure... LOL

    nice looking car, but I wouldn't want to have to change the timing belt on that engine. You can tell the bay was designed for a 4 cylinder.

    I was actually in Ewing last Saturday for my daughters soccer game (travel soccer: a wonderful way to see the state). My wife would have loved it if I said I needed to make a detour on the way home to look at a used car ;-)

    Bozo CD/Cassette
    Moonroof
    Side air bags
    90,300 miles (ouch, not all mine)

    Clean carfax
    A couple of scrapes on the rear bumper cover, and a door ding or two.
    Parked in St. Louis, MO

    Thanks for your help!
  • qbrozenqbrozen Member Posts: 33,736
    from what i've read, its got a chain, not a belt, which I consider a big plus in any car. but i know what you mean. Looks like you gotta take out the radiator and grille to do anything in there, but that's been the case with every car I've had in the last 10 years. I had to pull off the grille and bumper to replace the AC condensor in my wife's Pilot a few months ago - an SUV! You'd think you have all kinds of space in there. I think all designers should be forced to wrench on their own cars. ;)

    I am thinking of purchasing a pre owned X5 4.4awd(2002) fully loaded with sport pkg, Navigation, moon roof,premium sound,multi compact disc,etc. The car is in mint condition and only has 9000 thousand miles on it. All service records look great,seems like it was owned by a little old man who only drove it to church . The dealer started with 46,900,after 3min got down to 45,500. Does this seem like a good price for a pre owned x5 vehicle that is two years old or should I push harder for him to come down some more.

    My elderly parents last week purchased a new 2004 Buick LeSabre-Limited(MSRP incl options of $35,110 plus dealer added options & profit of $2,480 for a total sticker of $37,590, priced out on Edmunds.com TMV at $32,485 before dealer added options) & traded a 2002 Buick LeSabre-Custom (24,019 miles clean w/numerous options priced out on Edmunds.com at $11,419 TMV trade-in value). They wrote a check to the dealer for $24,980, including a 72 month ext. warrany for $1,742 & after $3,500 rebate. It looks like to me they overpaid by at least $4,000 even allowing for a reasonable dealer profit. I notified the dealer of my concerns after the sale but they seem unwilling to budge. My parents have bought 4 new cars from this dealer & I feel they took advantage of them. Any suggestions?
  • millspdmillspd Member Posts: 104
    I suppose that isn't a common adjective for the Avalon. . .

    I grew up with many fond memories of American luxury cars from the 70s, and the Avalon really reminds me of those in its execution. Plus it's reliable. :-)
  • bradleyb65bradleyb65 Member Posts: 6
    Guess Terry is swamped with a lot of requests....can anyone else provide some insight?

    Any thoughts on what I might get on as trade-in on a...
    1997 Saab SE Turbo 4dr hatch
    Black exterior - paint in glossy with one small scratch on passenger door
    back logo has come off of hatch...just silver circle now.
    Cream leather interior in very good shape (few minor cracks in drivers seat)
    86,000 miles
    newer tires all match with good tread
    Serviced regularly, but don't have all receipts.
    New clutch and transmission rotors (?) wife burned out the old clutch.

    Now the not so good news....air blow cool...but not cold...thinking of having it looked at...check engine light comes on occasionally but not currently on.

    Is $4500 doable for Tampa Bay area?
  • corvettecorvette Member Posts: 11,280
    $2500 in dealer options - like what, the oh-so-lovely Landau roof? Mop-n-glo? Pinstripe? Assuming these figures are before tax, here's how it breaks down:

    Assuming average options for a 2002 LeSabre Limited, TMV is close to $14k, but these things aren't exactly in high demand, so $11.5 might be reasonable. Terry can give a better idea.

    TMV on the new LeSabre is $28680 after rebates, less an additional $1500 cash allowance. Value of the dealer-added options is -0- if they're what I described. The value of the extended warranty is also -0- unless it's a GM warranty, either way the price is negotiable. If they only keep their cars two years, they won't need it anyway. See if there's a cancellation clause in the warranty contract, you might be able to get that money back.

    Looks like the dealer cleared anywhere from $5k on up on this deal. While that's more profit than average for a car that isn't selling that well, there appears to be no outright fraud going on, just the dealer squeezing every last dime out of the deal, and the customer accepting that deal. What I'm getting at is, there's generally no recourse for buyer's remorse.

    >>>Any suggestions?<<<

    You could arrange a sit-down with the general manager to address your concerns, but don't get your hopes up. You could also post a synopsis of what happened on dealerrater.com. Let us know what happens!

              ================================

                I'm trying to read this correctly .. $35,110.? is this the original MSRP, or is the $2,480 additional dealer added stuff to get to $37,590 ..?

                    Anyway .. they should have been able to trade for "around" the $20ish figure (with the rebates) plus the tax and tag, their vehicle was probably worth the high $10's ......

                 Extended warranties a fine, but on a Buick.? thats like getting a warranty on a Avalon ..... "seems" like $2ish too much plus the warranty profit - who has the title for the 02 ..?

                    I need some more details .....

                              Terry :(
  • millspdmillspd Member Posts: 104
    Thanks, Terry! I wanted a big car that would be both reliable and in my budget, and the Avalon fit the bill. Not the most loaded version out there (I have an XL with the package that has power seats, alloys, and keyless), but it has what I want.

    My Toyota dealer did try to sell me an extended warranty on the Avalon, but I declined. :-)
  • qbrozenqbrozen Member Posts: 33,736
    Here's an update for ya, Terry.

    I went and checked out that Benz tonight. Other than that exhaust manifold, I couldn't find a spec of rust under or on top of the vehicle. It was just sparkling clean. A little dent by the left-front headlight, and that's it (I think or hope you're seeing those pictures wrong cause if it got smacked, i couldn't tell). Inside was just as good. Everything worked on this car. It obviously spent alot of time sitting in someone's garage. Ran and shifted beautiful and everything. I can easily find more blemishes on my wife's 18-month old vehicle than I could on this Benz. SO.... I pulled the trigger at $3500.

    Thanks for your help once again. And thanks to everyone who opinioned in. I think this will serve us much better than that Jag would have.

    ......... I just love these updates ....

             $3,500 is really good .. it's hard to see pics unless your their .. hey, for $3,500 you can't go that wrong -- or at least not real bad, or at least you didn't spend alot of money ..... anyway, it looks nice -- enjoy it, have fun and keep us updated ...

         ====================================

              Black is beautiful in Chi-town, if it has no repaints, no Swirl o' matic car washes and no Burger King battles .. this one is an 03 with 15,000 semi-tall miles, we have the blinders and you say it's in pretty good shape .... up north, dealers will be getting less than happy with converts this time of the season - down here row boats are popular ..

                      If it's super nice super clean, seats look hovered in, no curb battles ... trade side, depending on the dealer, in and around the tall $31ish, maybe the low/mid $32ish figure .... whats he trading for.?

    ........ In the land of Colonel Klink .. we have a 00 GLS Passat V6 wagon with 71k, we have the breeze, maybe needs some rubber, color is good for the area, no roof no wheels, but we have the auto ....

                 If, the service is from yesterday, no I bounced off my sisters campaign bus, no chicken being raised in the back .. then trade side, in and around the mid/high $8's, might get a dealer to drop the low low low $9's in it, but I have a feelin' the Galves book will hold this one back in the Mass area ........

    LOL. That's pretty much what my wife said. "you mean that's it? you're not shopping around any more?"

    "not shopping around" is rather harsh, though. but i think that's for the CCBA board ...

    Re: the Boxster...

    His buddy wants out of his lease.. says his payoff is $33K..

    esash wanted to know if that was a good deal, if he wished to buy the car from his friend.
