I found a used 2008 Honda Accord EX-L with 19,108 miles on it for $23,900. this seems a lot for this car. A new 2008 was MSRP $25,860, Invoice $23,428 plus TTL. I did get a quote for a 2009 EX-L for $24,469 plus TTL. I just do not want to spend $26,000 for a new car, that is why I thought about this used 2008. I do not put a lot of miles on thoughout the year. What should I offer for the used 2008 Accord EX-L with 19,107 miles ? I live in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Please give me some advice. Thanks.

found a passat wagon to look at, and wondering about what it should go for. 2005 passat GLS wagon. 1.8T engine, auto tranny dark blue over gray (leatherette it looks like). alloy wheels Pretty sure it has a moonroof. in PA (outside philly) 30,000 miles on it. from the pixs, it looks clean. at a VW dealer. No mention of it being certified. assuming it isn't CPO, what would be a reasonable price for this puppy? They are asking just under 17K

have to do something with the current ride if I move on to something new.. 2005 Accord EX-L 4 door, 4 cyl, 5 speed (yes, a manual tranny) all the normal EX-L stuff (lether, roof, XM radio) 29,000 miles on it. Overall clean. A couple of minor door ding type nicks, but shines up nice. Original tires and brakes. interior has no issues. Only damage is to the front bumper cover. There is a small hole and crack from getting hit by a trailer hitch. I never bothered to get a new one put on. Still under warranty until 12/08. I would trade if could get an OK offer, or private sale (yuck). What do the experts think it shold go for in either case? And, would it be worth spending the money on the bumper (about $5-600 for a new one on the car and painted)? It does at least get really good mileage, which should help these days!

Replying to: stickguy (Sep 14, 2008 5:52 am) Have you driven it yet? I found the 1.8T engine to have pretty bad turbo lag, especially with an automatic. |

I am still in the evaluation phase. Haven't moved onto the driving phase (where contenders often get eliminated). THis is my first foray into the world of auto trannies, except for the wifes minivans. I have driven the 1.8 with a stick and liked it. I did drive a Volvo S60 2.5T (low pressue turbo) yesterday. That baby had no problem IMO with lag. punched it at around 25 and it felt like I was shot out of a cannon. It's not like my Accord 4 cyl has instantaneous torque at low RPMs either. |
