Trade in value on a 2001 RX300 with Nav? by ny14337

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.

Trade In Value of 03 BMW 325i by dhunter03

Hi,
 
I was hoping that someone can help me evaluate trade-in value of my car. I don't think my situation is unique but this is the first time that I am considering to trade in a vehicle that was involved in an accident.
 
Location: Washington DC area
2003/BMW/325i
4dr, auto, 35k miles, black
Options: only options were auto, sun-roof
 
The car is in an excellent shape. However about 3 years ago I was involved in collision in/out of shopping center. At the time my insurance nearly determined that my car was considered "totaled". However the "final" estimate determined that it was ~$2,000 below the threshold level of considering it "totaled" so I ended up getting my car repaired instead of receiving a check.
 
At the end of the repair, the final cost was $2,500 higher than what was originally estimated. Needless to say had I known, I would have received an amount that was worth my vehicle.
 
I appreciate any input/response on my vehicle trade in value.

Bummer, dude, I've been there. But, does it have a Salvage Title now? Show up on Carfax? What did the repairs cost/what was involved?

"...about $700..."
 
That's just about in the middle between the poster who said "car is worth zero" and the "$1000 off" figure. That's about what I figured for a newer car.
 
Usually I see the A/C statement in the old beater cars where $700 is the bulk of the price. Most sellers would fix a busted A/C on a newer model. I don't think I would buy a car newer than 5 y/o if the A/C was busted.
 
Thanks to all of you for the info.

All,
Any help on this one:
 
2003 Nissan Maxima SE
Leather & Sunroof
70k miles
tires fairly new
floormats are a little dirty, but rest of interior is great.
has some paint chips on hood and doors.
 
NADA Avg trade is 7650 + 825 (lthr&sunroof) = 8475. Is that in the ballpark for a trade in? LA/TX market
Thanks,

The total cost to repair was expensive but I can't recall. I'm still baffled at how small incident out of parking lot can cost so much. Good thing I was fully insured...
It was not classified as salvage so I still have my original title.

Looks like trade in should be $7-8,000
 
So, retail $10-12,000 range
