CR actually rates the S60 as having above-average reliability. It is or was listed as one of their recommended vehicles. The Volvo is also going to be more powerful than the TSX.

2007 Pontiac Vibe. by steine13

I'm thinking about falling off the wagon; the General is pushing GM card money and other rebates at me to buy one of their fine products.
 
'07 Vibe -- base wagon; only trim level that year
Dark gray metallic paint; gray cloth interior
20k miles
5sp manual [of course!]
Car is clean, non-smoker, no odors, good shape, maintained.
 
Usual equipment: air/pwr/remote/cruise/CD
Plus ABS, side and side curtain air bags.
 
No nav, no sunroof, no alloys
 
What's she worth wholesale, and what's a good number to shoot for private party?
 
I'm gonna guess $9.5-10 trade-in;
Ask $11,5 on Craigs, take mid-to-high $10. Am I off?
 
I can get the same thing in an '09, out-the-door, for under $14 and if the #s work out, I think we'll trade up.
 
Thanks in advance,
Cheers -Mathias

Having a new tranny isn't a plus in this car.
It will make people wonder if the car has been thrashed.
 
Figure $6-7,000 trade in.

Volvomax,
A brand new 09 Honda Odyssey EX-L right now is 28.6k.So a 2 year model with about 30k miles is still worth 22-23k?That`s a very high resale value.Better to buy new,I guess.I am very surprised.
Shows that probably Honda resale values are the best.

Ha ha thanks. There are a number of Maximas around that age (00-02) in my area on craigslist, and a few in the local paper, all generally much more than that. Of course, that doesn't mean they'll sell for that money!

Carmax offered me $7900...
 
Dealership yesterday offered 8,150.
 
I was also told that for private sale a new tranny in it would be very good because the wrx transmissions are notoriously fragile?

2006 Lexus ES330 CPO by kinsale

Hi,
 
I'm considering buying a 2006 Lexus ES330 certified pre owned.
It has 28k miles on it. No extra options that I can tell.
 
Dealer is looking for $21600.
 
i was wondering how much they may have into it?
Even though it is CPO I'm kinda nervous buying a 3 year old car. i plan to keep for at least 4 years.
Thanks

Generally speaking, new engine/tranny is frowned upon by buyers. They think it means the car was abused.
 
Great trade in value if its ACV.
