hi guys! i was guys wondering how much money wud i loose if i traded in my 2007 scion tc with a scion xb?? i already put on initial down payment of 3700 for my tc..i only had my scion tc for 3 months..the reason why im trading it in is because il be having someone with me soon and probably a bby and i like a family car or it..any suggestions and comments?? thanks guys!!

 

You would only loose a little money if you found some private party to buy your tC. The xBs are a lot less money, so you should come out pretty good. If you try a dealer trade you might be able to trade even--thereby loosing 3 g's or so. Good luck.

 

Talk to da guys at CAMELBACK! Mark. Bryon,Ron or JP. They can help you out with that!

 

i might loose 3000?? why is that??

 

help here needed guys!!

 

It's called depreciation as soon as you drive a new car off the lost you've lost money
your 2007 tC just became a used car............check it's value on NADA , or Kelly Blue Book online.
However talk to CB scion they need tC's, they are selling like hotcakes , so you might not get hurt too bad ., there is just no way they are gonna give you what you paid for it , it cant be done and still have room to mark it up for re-sale..
It's just how the car business works..........................
If it was'nt that way the wife would be drivin a new 07 tC ,instead of the Magnum, but we cant get enough for it cause it's only 2 yrs old and the bank loans are front loaded with interest and you dont start paying off the principal for a few years........
Unless you wanna trade your tC for a Magnum

I just traded in my 05 tC and broke just above even as far as what I owed on the car. And I got a 2006.5 xB. But then again you have an 07 tC so the hit would be felt more since you just put down the +3 grand a few months ago. I had the tC for about 1 year and beat the hell out of that thing with over 18000 miles. I also put 3000 down but it was fine for me when I got the xB because I can def say I got my 3 grands worth out of the tC!!! LOL

 

I also just traded my 2005 tC that I got 18 months ago, and had 18k miles on it, for a 2007 tC with 0 miles. They gave me $15,500 trade-in, which is about 800 less than what I paid for the car new. I could not be happier with how that worked out, and yes, I must second going to Camelback, Mark and Ron were awesome to deal with.

 

Give Ron at CB a call, he said he will be there till close today.

 

y did you trade a 05 tC for an 07? there isnt any aftermarket performance for it... or is performance not ur cup o tea?

 

Performance is not my cup of tea, I do not drive hard at all, a very casual driver.

 

i see. thats cool.

 

really?? so i think il be having a good chance in trading in my tc for an xb..il definitely go to camelback as soon as possible..$800!? thats not a lot to loose if i want a new car..thanks guys for all your help..

 

ive been calling camelback but all i get is a message that i cant call to that area! grrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

 

This is Ron @ Camelback, Call me directly @ 602-264-2841 X-6903

 

are you working today ron??

 

yea well I lost about 2K off my tC Value wise in a Year. But if you factor in Tax (800ish+reg.+interest) Probably lost around 4K total. Its only the Tax and interest that screw u over. Reg. is a given.

But i got my moneys worth out of it. ran it like a ****, redlined more than like 30 times a day

U shuld find a private party, tell them ull help them out on the taxes and since u paid reg. they will be happy about tht.

Shld be able to get 15K-15.5 for a manual and 16K-16.5K for an Auto.

If i was lookin for a tC, I'd pick up an 07, 3 months old for 1K less than Dealer,No registration, and a cheaper tax break and destination fees and stuff.

 

If you're going to sell the tC sell it private party, used they go for about as much as they do new...If you trade it in expect to only get like 12-13 for it.

 

i hope camelback would give me a good deal..im quite anxious about it though..i hope everything turn out just fine..
