Aug 05, 2012 (7:39 pm)

Louisville, KY
 
2006 Hyundai Elantra GLS 4-dr sedan
Auto tranny
93K miles
blue (a metallic they called tidal wave pearl), gray cloth interior
No alloys, no hole in the roof, single CD...
Interior is in good shape, exterior just a modest dent near the right side of the deck lid (got whacked with an errant weed-whacker), paint is good otherwise.
Tires about 50% worn
Brakes 25% worn, maybe less.
Maintenance up to date, including timing belt
 
What say the experts on trade side or private party?

All things considered, I'd think you'd get hit at around $2k-2500 trade.
 
Private party? Depends on how fast you want to cut it lose. I'd probably go for $4995 and kick it to the curb for anything over $4k.

We special-ordered our Forester so I know what that feels like!
 
I special ordered my 3 Series so that I was able to get a limited-slip differential as well as avoid getting stck with a hole in the roof. My wife is not as picky and her CPO 5 Series, X3, and 3 Series have suited her fine.

Got $13,200 from a place similar to carmax.
 
I was told by both carmax and this place that replacing a rear quarter panel is considered frame damage according to the guidelines they use for appraising.

Didn't think I could squeeze too much more from private party with full disclosure of the accident that happened.
 
Probably would have got a bit more money, but not worth the hassle for me.

I have 4 months left on my lease. There are some great deals right now on several appealing cars. Is it realistic to consider a dealer taking me out of the remainder of my current lease in order to move a new car? Basically, is my car worth more in trade than it's buyout value?
 
Location: Long Island, NY
Year/Make/Model: 2010 Cadillac SRX Luxury
Body Style: Crossover SUV
Engine: 3.6L V6
Driveline: AWD
Mileage: 31,000 (39K permitted on 39 mo lease)
Color: Grey Flannel Metallic (dark grey), Titanium (grey) interior
Major Options: Luxury pkg, touch screen NAV
Condition:
  Excellent, no accidents, dings, or scratches
  Tires - original, est. 25% remaining
  Brakes - original, est. 25% remaining (no sqeaks)
  Maintenance - all performed by dealer as scheduled
Other: No prior damage/insurance claims, repaints, etc.
 
There are 4 payments remaining at $673 each. Purchase option at end of lease is $22,928.

Its very very possible. The values are a bit varied, but a few with more miles than yours have crossed the $26k mark at auction, so I would think if a dealer wants your business bad enough, they should be willing to buy out your car at the $25,620 you owe on it.
 
Just make sure that's what they do and they don't go sneaking your remaining payments into your new lease cap cost.
