trade in or sell?

am i better off trying to sell my car privately or trading in when dealing with a new car at a dealership? ive heard some stories of kinda shitty cars getting a decent amount when getting a deal for a new car…

my del sol is a 93 with 187K on it, so i don’t know if a dealership would even be interested?

micah, they probably won’t give you 1000 bucks.

For reference, I can probably get 23000 for my car private party… A local dealer offered me 16,000 on a trade.

:frowning: probably true… Try to sell it.

If you have the time, then definitely sell it privately. They will probably only give you $500 on that car.

yea im sure it will be 250-300

ill give 500 lol

Kelly Blue Book for Trade in.
Excellent $1,075
Good $850
Fair $500

most of the time they are like 50% less of KBB

I got 501 on it.

550

lol i would like to know a lil more about the car

499

600 pending tranny type

300 with a good running tranny.

i just need the shell

If gas goes back up I would break even on driving this to work over the SS in like 3 months.

SOHC VTEC 1.6L

its the del sol Si

god i dont know if i can sell it, i’ll cry

why sell? its not worth much to anyone else, and unless you are buying a roadster or convertable, just keep it

keep it as a beater and buy a nice newer car? IMO

yea you would be very lucky to get a TRUE trade allowance of $1000… they may show you 2000 but they will be taking 1000 of the price of the new vehicle
