Sounds like a $10,000 car.

Good to know.
 
Hey, are you selling it?
 
Just kidding.
 
New PRHTs are now down to $22k or so, really not bad at all. That's with basic equipment, so they go up near $30k loaded.
 
I saw one used 2007 for $20k and it was loaded, that was a bargain. I almost jumped on it. It was the right color, trans, had leather seats with heaters, everything. I guess I just chickened out.
 
I've seen used 2006s as low as $12k or so, but most are $15k.
 
volvomax - just to get an idea, what to 2006 and 2007 Miata soft tops go for across the auction block?
 
I'm sure the hard tops are much higher, so what about those? They only came out in 2007 so it's possible not many have hit the auctions.

What do you think of the redesigned BMW Z4, which should be out this spring?

Yeah, that was a trade number. You really should try to move it privately first though as they continue to bring good money.

That's what I plan to recommend she do. It should sell pretty quickly for $11k.

just take your tax laws into account. If I trade a $10k car in NJ, I basically get credited for $10,700 thanks to the tax credit. So I wouldn't bother private selling if I thought $11k was the limit.

2005.5 Jetta TDI w/DSG by juniorbill

Wondering what my trade-in is really worth. Most of the online sites are clueless about the diesel VW.
 
Location: St. Louis, MO
Y/M/M: 2005.5 VW Jetta TDI (this is the "New Jetta" that was introduced mid-year, with the current A5 body style)
Body Style: 4dr
Engine: 4 cyl turbodiesel, direct-sequential gearbox (DSG) = automated manual transmission; real-world 40 mpg combined average (documented)
Driveline: FWD
Mileage: 76,500
Color: Dark blue/black "leatherette"
Major Options: 6 disc in dash CD/MP3 player; heated front seats, washer nozzles and mirrors; dual-zone automatic climate control; rain-sensing wipers; automatic headlights; auto-dimming mirror; side body and side curtain airbags; ABS; electronic stability control
Condition:
Few very minor dings on the body. Interior is in very good condition.
Everything works.
Tires - about two years old
Brakes - still good; changed fluid about 6 months ago
Maintenance - all up to date with records
Other: I wrecked the front end when it was 3 months old but it was repaired good as new and been great since. Replaced broken windshield about a year and a half ago. Defective dual-mass flywheel was replaced a couple of months ago under extended warranty.
 
Thanks for thoughts!
