Money Used car market - Page 3

TLO · 10-15-2021, 12:28 PM

I've been thinking about getting myself a new ride. Right now I could sell my Charger for right at, if not slightly below what I paid for it nearly 4 years ago. (Might not get quite that much out of it, but it would be in the ballpark, and yes, it's a unicorn)

Of course if I sell, I'm delving into that inflated used car market to try and find another ride.

Looking for something with a reasonable amount of power. 4 doors (preferably, but not a deal breaker.) No Yukons.

Give me some suggestions.

I don’t think the chip shortage is going to last much longer than 2nd Qtr next year. As soon as new car inventories get back to normal, used car prices will come down. Sell your car, take the profits, and bum rides from family and friends until May 2022.

My "fun" car is actually appreciating, or so I've been told. I never thought that would happen.

Just sold my 1999 Dodge Ram Cummins diesel 4x4 for $17,500. Just before Covid my highest offer was $11k

Just sold my 2000 Acura Integra with 207,000 miles for 3K. It was a manual so that made it more desirable. It was in fair condition and ran great. Maybe, I should've asked for more $$.

I got 30 text messages, multiple emails and lots of phone calls within two days after placing an add on CL. Placed the Add Tuesday evening and had it sold by Thursday. That was a unique car selling experience and I was a car salesman for over a decade.

I sold my neighbors 13 Impala last month. Had it on FB for quite some time...nothin. 2 days on CL and it sole to the first test driver.

My neighbor has a 2009 Accord EX coupe, 6 speed manual 115k miles for $5,000. That's a ****ing steal in this market.

Wow. That's quite the deal.

Congrats! What was the price (if it is not a secret)? I drive Impala but consider a slightly bigger car. Also I had a lot of repairs recently, forgot to check auto parts data and ordered a wrong piece. I guess now i had enough troubles with the current vehicle, time for a change

95k miles, $9500,00

**Bugeater** · 10-16-2021, 04:00 PM

Or you can have my 1996 Camero with 58,000 original miles for $6k. That thing will get you laid. Probably a couple times.

Nothing makes girls panties drop faster than a mid 90s V6 Camaro.

I can just see me driving into the Arrowhead parking lot with that bad boy.

Random Skank: How many original miles does that bad boy have on it?

Me: Only 58,000
