Since you got sidetracked lavishing praise on a Benz! What would be a reasonable price for: 2000 BMW 525iT (wagon). 74,000 miles. AT. Silver, grey leather. All loaded up, including a heated steering wheel, premium package, roof, etc. Clean, 1 owner, service records. Local trade to a Lexus dealer. No htis/runs/errors. Fresh tires. Assuming it needs nothing, what would be a fair price to pa for this? It is at a used car place that is owned by the same chain that has Lexus and Toyota dealers.

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Oct 09, 2008 3:01 pm) How much would this devalue a car in the north? To me, reading that would make the car worth zero dollars. I'd be asking myself, what else is wrong with the car? Was it maintained, even at a minimum? |

Replying to: oldfarmer50 (Oct 09, 2008 3:01 pm) I'd say about $1000 off. But...you eliminate a lot of potential buyers. You'd be better off selling a car like that to a college student, so that might limit your asking price to a few grand. In other words, it's acceptable in a beater, but not acceptable in any car that the buyer would have to finance.

Replying to: ateixeira (Oct 11, 2008 5:53 am) My own car has a bad compressor clutch. It's buried. About a $700 repair. Car's only worth around $1500-1700. I'll just live with the windows down.

I need to trade in my 2001 Lexus RX300 and I'm wondering what I can expect to get from a dealer. I live on Long Island, NY, a suburb of NYC. The vehicle is an 2001 Lexus RX300 AWD with 88,000 miles. It has all the normal bells and whistles, including factory installed navigation and a 6 disc CD changer. It is in excellent condition with one or two very small dings and clean leather with no rips. Clean title and has never been in a accident or had an insurance claim. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I know SUV's have taken a hit in value; anyone with input on trade-in value for a 2007 XC90 V8, 16k miles, pretty much loaded (nav, dvd, climate pkg, conv. pkg.) Denver area, if it helps. Thanks in advance.

I'm looking to buy a 2007 Sonata GLS 4 cyl., auto., silver, sunroof, power drivers seat, 37K miles, new tires, asking price is $11,995, in Oklahoma City. I got the Carfax report, and it's a former rental, with no problems that I could see. Could you tell me the wholesale value on that? TIA.
