Trade-in opinion

After buying 10 new vehicles for myself and family, I have a good idea of trade-in values. Which is why I wanted to get a third opinion on my GTP trade-in value.

'02 Grand Prix GTP, 89,000 miles, leather, Bose, sunroof, all the standard stuff, 1/2 - 3/4 tread on tires, no dings, interior good shape, needs inspected this month and will pass with no investment. No mechanical problems.

As a reference, Kelley Blue Book is $6900 excellent, $6310 good, $5315 fair.

What do you see as a realistic trade-in value at a dealer? I know you can play games with the new car offer and trade-in, but I can figure that out once I have the actual trade-in number that I think is fair.

They may not be off by much, but I won’t mention the numbers so I don’t bias anyone.

Anyone have acces to one of the black books that dealers may use?

Do you want to sell that car private party? They have a really special niche in New England where you can get a good bit more for it than the trade in. Quickly too.

Post it up on this site www.nepontiac.org and massclubgp.com
If you can represent it well you have a good shot at more than the dealer.
