well what do you expect? How else are they gonna make money..i have 10000 miles on my car and I would bearly get 12 thousand. Never been in an accident and I baby my car, also kept up with all the maintenance. Advice to you is to keep the car and save up for another. Every year there is gonna be a better car..every year there is going to be a different car that you would want. Keep the tC and start saving up.

Default Whats up

I sold cars for a couple of years and from my experience modding a car does a number on the resale value. Dealers and buyers think a modded car is a ragged out car used for racing from stop light to stop light. What kind of mods have you done with it? Headers? Intake? Dropping it really gives it a hit on after market sale. And what is the deal with the paint? Has it been in a wreck?
