Trade In
 
Has anyone inquired about how much you Z would be worth at trade in?
The wife and I were looking at the Jeep GC,and ask what they'd give us on the Z.
KBB say 28750, the dealer came back with 23250. He say that KBB was way to high. I LOL as I walked out the door, the GC price was close to 40 g's. A sale that's not going to happen.

The Car is Perfect with only 9100 miles

Try carmax to sell.

Take it to Carmax for an appraisal. At the very least, the dealer should offer what Carmax offers.

When I traded my '09 Touring/Sport 6MT no-nav with 27.5k miles on it I got $26k.

Already did guys the said 25000. because they would have to take all the goodies off the car.

Oddly, the mark-up on the Jeep GC's (unless you get "dealer added items") is 5-7%. Most other companies are 8-12%. I am kindof shocked.

Cars with lots of add-ons are definitely harder to sell, so you probably won't get a great trade in. I'd PM FuszNissan and see what he would offer for the car just to get a fair idea.

I think the going rate for mods is 4-50% if self-installed, and mabye up to 60-65% if someone like LPE/Heffner/Shelby, etc. installs it.

If you are selling privately, sure, but most of the time mods can cost you if you are selling to a dealer. It's much harder to sell a modded car than it is a stock one.

Obviously if it's a serialized car like a Shelby it is going to fetch more.

Removed what you can if you are serious on a trade-in and put it back as close to stock as you can.

We found a dealer today that worked with us, got 27500. I wanted 28 even, so all is good.
My son is mad at me because I never let him drive the Z, and now it's gone. He'll live he is only 19

$27,500 is a really good number on a trade. Good luck with the Jeep. :tup:

He's gonna come back with a sweet car and he wont let your drive it, I tell ya that.

Great trade in, but does that mean they took it through the new car price? What did you pay for that vs invoice?

mdbrich 11-27-2010 06:35 PM

Get quotes from Carmax, as well as a bunch of other dealers, bring those to the dealer you want to buy from. Have then negotiate the best deal they can.

Same here, lol. My Dad and my Cousin always talked smack about my mustang (in jest) while building his 408ci '67 coupe. The '67 still needs transmission work and I am just a few months from ordering my Z. I am going to crush that car and they knows it :p

Great deal on your trade, btw. !
