#25 of 1028 '96 Trade by rbell2 Nov 30, 2003 (9:52 pm)
Very doubtful you'll get $6-7,000 selling that '96 DGC-ES. There are just way too many used vans on the market and with the huge discounts they are giving on new DGC and T&C, the devaluation just trickles down.   For example, I had a '96 DGC-LE with pretty much all the options for that trim w/o leather. It had 107,000 miles. It was truly in very good condition with all maintenance records. It needed a brake job (~$400) and it had a leaking valve cover gasket (~$175). I tried to sell it for about 4 weeks - got 2 calls and no lookers. Dropped the ad price all the way to $3,750 and still no offers. I went to some wholesalers and the most I was offered was $2,000. I got $2,500 for it trade-in (as is) with my '03 Ody purchase. One reason I bought a Honda - I was really sick from how little I could get for my DGC although it did serve us well for 7 years. All my previous used car selling experiences were Toyo's where they sold fast and for a good price ('84 Celica, '88 Celica, '89 Avalon, and '01 4Runner).   Good luck.

That's actually not a bad price. I would check the New Car section (not used) and look at the 2003 models to get an idea of how much the 2003 LXi went for. Also don't forget the rebates offered. I would assume there was a $3k-$4k rebate at the timeof purchase. So take the Invoice price minus the rebate minus the first year depreciation.   shued: I think you are mixing up the LX with the LXi. The LXi is a higher line then the LX. I believe that lists in the mid to low $30's.
#27 of 1028 Bought the 2004 Platinum/Touring by kwatson272 Dec 08, 2003 (10:30 am)
Paid $1,000 under invoice + the incentives ($4,000 back)+ n/c DVD. October 2003. Not bad for the boys at County Chrysler - Upper Marlboro, MD. Missed out on the $500 holiday cash - but still happy so far. That's a nice leather - pwr sliders/rear - 6 disc DVD - pwr sunroof - groc. divider in back - 3.8L - etc. for $28,500 + tax. (List 36k. Wait for the 05's?? I'm a person that isn't crazy about 1st yr overhauls. For that reason alone - forget the Toyota. Almost rather have the model with the bugs out.
#28 of 1028 2004 T&C Limited FWD by familyguy1 Jan 04, 2004 (6:11 am)
I just purchased a 2004 Limited FWD on Friday 1/2, just as some recent incentives were expiring. Here's the details: Car: 2004 T&C Limited FWD Color: Stone White Options: Power Moonroof Miles: 9 Area: Cincinnati, OH   Base MSRP: $37,700 Options: $895 (moonroof) Dest Charge: $680 Total MSRP: $39,275   Paid: $35,394 Less Rebates: $5,000 (3,500+1000+500) NET: $30,394 plus: Tax, tile, doc fee (100)   Traded in my 98 T&C LXi with a whopping 92K miles on it, but we didn't discuss that until after the new car price was agreed to. (Got $6,300 which is bit low, but I'm happy).   This is my third T&C (previously had a 94 and 98) and I'm looking forward to years of enjoyment out of it. Hope this helps and good luck with your own purchase. Replies to this message: sammon (Jul 22, 2005 5:24 am)
#30 of 1028 2001 T&C LTD AWD by ronb6 Jan 06, 2004 (5:00 pm)
Thought I would post my deal for pondering. I just bought 2 Jan a 2001 Town and Country Limited AWD for 21500.00. It is silver with the blue interior.  It has 31150 miles and was a prior lease vehicle (ran carfax on it.)  It has the tow package and engine block heater for options and a full third row seat (I hate the 50/50 split because the middle person is hating life due to the hinges) plus it still has the eight way passenger seat (deleted in 2003.)  The best part was the dealer. There was ZERO pressure from them. For the test drive, they handed us the keys told us to have fun and come back when we were done. When we got back, they let us decide with no input from them at all, when we said yes, there was no pressure tactics or anything. He got us financed in less than an hour at a real good rate. We waited over the weekend for them to service it but told David (the salesman) that we could not pick it up until next weekend due to my work sked (the dealership was about 60 mi from my house and they closed at 5:00.) He said he would deliver it on monday and sure enough, monday evening there is a rollback truck in the driveway with our new van on it that was fully detailed and serviced with registration and plates done already (no extra detailing or service charge even for the foglight that burned out when they were loading it up, which they replaced before they left the lot to drop it off.) Barlow Motors in Vernon, CT defiantly gave us the best experience we have had when buying a vehicle.

I did try to remove that with your editor because I realized my mistake but the corrected copy was the one deleted. Why, I don't know.The correction was made 3 minutes after the initial posting. Got to love computers
#33 of 1028 Bought the 2004 Platinum/Touring by jtheron Feb 27, 2004 (5:05 pm)
We checked out the 2005 T&C's and were disappointed with the Stow n Go seats, neat how they went into the floor and all but they seemed very odd looking and uncomfortable to us. We know for a fact that we will regularly have four people riding in the van but only very very rarely would we have the need for using the full cargo area and we didn't want to have to always endure uncomfortable seats for a few times of needing all the cargo space. We didn't think we wanted to ride in the Stow n Go seats for any length of time ourselves so we thought we should get a 2004 while they are available and were discounted. Bought a 2004 Platinum/Touring with a total price of $35,890 and no charge DVD for a net MSRP of $34,995. The Platinum/Touring series seemed very close in features to the Limited but was about $4,300 less and we didn't see $4,300 in value for the extras the limited had over the Platinum. We paid $22,500 plus traded a 1993 Caravan with 99,000 miles, dealer said it was worth $600 yet we saw blue book and edmunds trade-in values of about $1,500. Using $1,500 trade value we felt total discounts of $11,890 off of top line list was not too bad so we bought it, figures out to a discount of better than 33%. If the 2005 vans would have not disappointed us we would have held off as the 1993 van ran just fine, we just didn't want to have the Stow n Go seats as the only seats available as we understand they are the standard seats on the nicer 2005 town and country's.

Wow. I thought I did good with my 04 Platinum Series with my affiliate rewards discount of 1% under invoice, plus the $6000 rebate – for a total of $27,842 on a sticker price of $36,800. This is a little less than what carsdirect showed, so I thought it was a good deal. I didn’t think they would go near 3K under invoice, even with the new models coming out. Was this an advertised special? Just wondering how you would even get to the point of asking for $3000 under invoice, when there’s already a $6K rebate. Great job
