That is certainly the wrong VIN.
I noticed that none of the pictures showed the VIN plate, so who knows what the VIN truly is.
 
The wheels are correct, they were the standard wheel for the T5 that yr.

Acura dealer showed you $12k. Chances are they overallowed on your car.
Still, if you are happy w/ the bottom line that is all that matters.

Volvo's geartronic transmissions, unlike most everyone elses, do not self shift if you hit redline.
However, I seriously doubt the wisdom of racing a 94,000 mile car.

No wisdom needed in racing.
 
Its just autoX. The thing that gets punished most is the tires.
 
So what about a value?
 
I'm prefer to hold out for a 5-speed, of course, but we know I could grow old and grey before that comes along.

Ya, thats what I thought but I got the MDX for only $100 more than the quote I got from the other Acura dealerships last month. No complaints here but I'm still wondering how or why they took it although I just checked their website and my car is listed (no price yet), along with 33 other S40s with selling prices ranging from $14.9k to $21k...

V70 for Q by stickguy

fyi, fitzmall has another '01 T5 with 85K on it. Looks nice (blue over tan).
 
Even better, they have a 2005 Saabaru 9.2x. Black, with a 5 speed. Believe it is the non-turbo model. Only about 10K IIRC, with 65K clicks on the odo.
 
That seems like it should be a nice little auto-x rat mobile.

the s40 is a kissing cousin to the mazda 3. so i'm guessing the used values are in the same ballpark, although they were priced quite a bit apart new.

Need some real world trade in figures on this new-new Malibu, with 2500 miles. Love the car, really, but still miss the RWD and V8 of a last car...looking at used/certified 2008/2009 Pontiac G8 GT's as a potential trade.
  
Location: Southern Delaware
Year/Make/Model: 2009 Chevy Malibu 2LT V6
Body Style: 4-door sedan
Engine: 3.6L/6-speed auto with TapShift
Driveline: FWD
Mileage: 2550
Color: Summit White/Cocoa-Cashmere UltraLux suede
Major Options: HF V6 package, power sunroof, premium mats & net, rear power package & window shade
Condition: Basically a new off the lot car, with no marks or wear and still strong "new" smell all over.
 
Trade, guys, for a car that's otherwise just off the lot with 2500mi on it?

thanks, sg.
 
the volvo is a bit pricey for my taste. and no way i'd buy a non-turbo saab (or subaru, for that matter).
 
well.... hmmm... maybe a impreza 2.5RS?
