Replying to: qbrozen (May 26, 2009 11:48 am) I'm with you on this. A two year old car is two years old on the used market once it's off the dealer's lot or the check clears.  My thinking is price it at used and add for low miles and extra clean--sort of 'like new' condition! The dealer probably won't want to view it that way because they're getting a fixed spiff from the factory to move the older ones. That spiff might even be listed in the incentives list here on Edmunds. http://www.edmunds.com/incentives/RebateController?step=1&tid=edmunds.n.incentiv- esindex.incentives.1.1.*&setzip=45322&zipcode_submit=Go I see $4250 on a 2008 Equinox and 1000$ if you own 1999 or newer GM car. I also saw Hyundai has some 2008 models listed. There may still be spiffs to the dealer that aren't publicized on Edmunds where they get help from the company to move those older, aged cars off their lots. |

.. if they were truly willing to deal on those cars, would they still be on the lot? Doubt they'll make a good deal, or those cars would already be gone..

Replying to: kyfdx (May 26, 2009 3:38 pm) I agree. However, I figure there has to be a point at which they finally cave. I mean, its either take the loss now; send it to auction and get even less; or have it auctioned off by the bankruptcy court. I can't profess to know much about this kind of stuff, but I would think option A is the way to go. |
