Hi there - I encourage you to also post over in our Real-World Trade-In Values discussion. There are several people there who can help you with this.
 
Good luck with your sale!!

Go to CarMax, see what they'll give you. They typically give more than the average price at a dealer.
 
Remember, a dealer is pricing you like a trade-in or a wholesaler, because THEY will immediately re-sell the car for that advertised $18000-$19000 you speak of.

I just wondered if you decided to go with Atlanta's Best Deals? I'm considering using them, but am a little wary due to the good prices, also...

I am looking at a Honda Accord EX, 4 cyl, auto, with around 37,000 miles. They are asking for $ 14K. Is this a good deal?

Hey, that would be a GREAT car to have, would last you forever with little maintenance. But I think $14K is a little bit high? Is that from a dealer? KBB lists private party sale value around $12,500.

Yes, that is what the dealer wants for it. Do you think the dealer might approach to the private party sale value? I guess it does not hurt to ask.

Ask away!!! I believe it's tough times for dealers. Type in the specific details (milegae, etc.) on KBB.com with your zip code to see the dealer value and you'll know. Still offer at least $500 less than dealer value and then walk away if they don't take it. I bet you $$ you'll get a call from them wanting to take your offer. Be prepared to haggle! Good luck!!!

Honda Accord 2003-2004 by concordia

Hi,
I live in Canada, and planning to buy an Accord 2003 or 2004. But I read many negative reviews about the 2003 one.
Is it true that the Accord 2003 has major transmission failure problem?
 
Also, when dealers mention the word Certified, how reliable is it? Or they still play with the millage? I am very confused.
 
Should I go for a 2003 or 2004? and dealer or Private?
 
Views please!

2003 and early 2004 models with the V6 have a known transmission problem, therefore the warranty on them was greatly extended.
 
Not sure what you mean by "play with mileage" though, regarding certified used cars.

Just buy a 4 cylinder! You'll get better gas mileage anyway.
