I'm looking to trade-in my 2002 Lexus ES300 auto, white with 108K miles. It's in good condition with the exception of a small crack in the front windshield(star shaped on lower part right of center) and damage to passenger side mirror(cracked front rim of the housing secondary to pulling of the garage too close to the side). I tried to have the windshield repaired this weekend, but the attempted fix actually resulted in a slight larger crack. Would cost $200+ to replace windshield. I've tenatively scheduled a repair for the passenger side mirror housing, ~$250 if only the housing needs to be replace, over $500 if the mirror needs replacing as well if the newer type housing doesn't fit the old mirror component. My primary question is whether or not to fix any of this prior to trade-in or should I leave it if the cost of repair may exceed any increment in trade-in value? Thanks

Co-worker is giving me 1st dibbs on her lease buyout. Here are the details: 2006 Volvo S40 2.4i - base car auto power windows, locks black/gray 44k on the clock will sell it to me for $15k. She's had a few issues but all covered under warranty. Great condition inside and out...minor scratch on lower rear bumper. Interior pretty nice. South Florida car and she's been the only owner since new. Turn back is in the beginning of October. What say you on this puppy? I figure I could get maybe $11k on my '06 Civic with 21.7k on the clock. Cars shows well. Thinking the S40 seats will treat my back condition better as the Civic isn't doing it and it really hurts driving the car now. TIA for your help. The Sandman

Local dealer has two of these, one red & one silver. Miles in the mid to high teens with power everything. They're asking $19,999. for each car. What do you think would get one of 'em parked in my garage with a trade of my '06 Civic LX with miles around $21.7k? Civic's in great condition. They're both at a local Volvo store. TIA Volvo. The Sandman

Replying to: hull22 (Jun 28, 2009 8:50 pm) $200 for the windshield sounds sensible. The mirror doesn't sound that bad--I can't believe you'll ever see $500 back if it costs that to get it fixed. A decent used Lexus could bring $2K-ish more (?) if you sell it privately, with the windshield replaced. |
