Wow, you almost hit the six digits. Mine is at 21000. However, I only get to drive mine about 5 times a year.

#338 of 347 Preowned xB. Can I do better? by karthick

Mar 18, 2009 (7:03 pm)

Folks,
I have an opportunity to get an 2008 xB with 22k miles on it for $13900 with no doc fees. It is an Auto with premium audio. I couldnt find a better price localy for a preowned but I am wondering if there are better deals to be had on the Fleabay.
2009 MSRP for a similar vehicle is $17659. So it looks like I am getting about a $3800 discount for the 22k miles.. It doesnt seem like that hot a deal but I cant seem to find a better deal locally.
 
Any opinions would be appreciated.

What is the Blue Book on it? It would be a safe bet to assume the dealer paid less than the trade-in value when they took it in. If you like the vehicle I would bargain hard for it, especially in this economy. It's a buyer's market and you should be in control. Dropping the doc. fee is not enough since most people feel that's a BS charge to begin with.

The trade in values turned out as follows.
 Excellent
$12,800

Good
$12,050

Fair
$10,675
 
Considering the car is on sale retail and it is under warranty, it would have to be classified excellent or good. So the dealer is making a neat profit on this.. Hmm perhaps I should shop around.

That's jack. An 08 scion xb wagon used (17000-18000) msrp has a trade in of under 13000 with average miles. (kbb.com). You're paying a lot for Scion's hip marketing,etc which I assume isn't working too well right now. That said, it is a low volume vehicle which may keep prices up. Either way, it isn't much of a deal unless you really really dig it. Xc and Xd are similar.
 
Good luck

dealers alway screw u on trade in value. they have to atleast make 1-2k to make it worth their while. for exmpl. they give you 12,700 trade in value & inturn ask 16.5k when they go to sell knowing consumer will want to knock 1k off that is why i never trade my old car in.
