I just saw gas for $2.91, so that may help the SUV segment, but then again, most people need a loan to buy an $11k vehicle and credit may be an issue.
 
My guess is the used car market will slow just as the new car market has.

philly area car, private sale. Assuming it is clean with no accidents, etc., what would be a realistic price to offer on this?
 
This is a 2WD Automatic 6 Cylinder BMW. The automatic unit permits manual gear changes. Shiny black exterior with gray Leather seats. Has no major dents, dings or scratches. Has steering wheel controls and sunroof. Runs and handles great. Want to sell to buy an SUV. Has 69,000 miles.
 
Looks like a premium package car, non-sport.

I think you are probably right. The dealership wasnt going to put it on their lot, so that probably had something to do with the lowball offer.
 
I'm going to sell it myself. I put it on the internet for $12,500. Got one call on it so far. I have until February before I have to sell it so I have some time. It really is a nice car, the mileage is pretty good and it has factory navigation. I think I only saw one other RX300 in my area that had navigation but it had over 100,000 miles. Hopefully I'll be able to get what I need from it and move on to my next vehicle.

Thank you all for the feedback! I will try and move it on Craiglist and will let you know how it goes.
 
Meanwhile, my wife has her eye on an '06 9-5 (latest iteration w/ the 260hp HOT) auto with 28K miles. Options are the rain sensing wipers and Parktronic, or whatever Saab calls it. Factory warranty to mid-2010, clean Carfax, looks new and drives well. Any thoughts on a ballpark fair value there?

Wholesale on the car should be in the mid teens.
figure a couple grand for the CPO warranty and recon, so you should be able to pick that car up under $20 grand.

Yup, the (reconditioned, but non-CPO) offer is $15,500. I'm inclined to take it.

Hello,
I'm eyeballing an 2003 Maxima SE. So I've decided to possibly trade in my Sentra.
 
Northern VA/DC Metro
2008 Nissan Sentra Base
2.0 4 cylinder, automatic
FWD
Sonoma sunset exterior
Grey interior
Pretty basic
7000 miles
 
Also, what would a person who had an 2003 SE Maxima (majestic blue, blonde interior) with 65000 got for their trade in? Good condition, alloys, sun roof, leather, Bose, HIDs.
 
Thanks for your time.

If you look back a few posts, Volvomax just answered a question about a 2003 Maxima SE with 70,000.

Well, if you must have a SAAB, that is a very good price.
