Trading 370 for 5.0?

Tough time to sell, though. Most places won't offer a lot right now, as it's a sports car and it's winter. That will be a justification for a low-ball offer. Believe me.

But then if you want to trade/sell in summer, the price of the car you want to buy inflates, assuming it's also a performance car. Ideally, sell in Summer, buy in November, but that doesn't fit many people's habits.

CarMax is likely to give you a good deal, though, because they can move the cars a lot easier than a new-car dealership can. It's cheaper for them to keep a car in inventory as well.

CarMax is exactly the place that gave us the "sports car cold weather" rap.
