My window sticker was $28705.
Finding someone to pay more for a modded car is always iffy at best.

+1

I knew that they were always way off in terms of being current but I didn't think it was that bad. Then again isn't the December issue due out shortly ??


Remember the car evaluation that I was invited to and I hated... well here is the car.

I'm talking about the price of the Challenger. I wouldn't get the first year, I would get the 2nd year (2010), so that's why I would trade in 2009. Then they can work out some bugs and dealer mark-up won't be as high. Also, I wouldn't trade my car in at a Dodge dealer. I would sell it on eBay. Let them fight over it!

Thanks! (about the magazine) I knew from the beginning that it would be several months. The December issue will hit news stands mid-October.

Sorry, the only Dodge I'd consider is the Viper. All others are .
And on the Chevy spectrum, it's the C6 or nothing.

I do a lot of business on eBay, but I would never try to buy or sell a car on there. I know people who have gotten screwed bad by people selling cars on eBay. Selling isn't quite so bad, but I think you can get a lot more selling locally or w/e. It is a pretty easy way to do it though.

I bet I could make more money on eBay than locally. I would never BUY a car on eBay - no way. But SELL a car? Heck yeah! I've done it for a couple people already. It's amazing what happens in the last hour... minute... seconds...

This is still 2 years down the road. I'm just saying...

What site are you using to get these numbers? KBB? If so, you can't use Excellent... no matter how perfect of shape it's in.

Then tell me how!

In that case... mine is 26,600 (trade-in) and 29,380 (private-party) and I paid $30,100.

But don't know of any dealer that will be willing to give you Excellent for trade-in. Now for Private-Party, I would demand excellent, especially for your car.
