As you may have seen in my previous posts, I was in an accident in May. I had just gotten my tC not even two months before, so I want to try to sell it and get a new one.

Carmax offered me $9500, but I think that's low, even with my accident. I don't have a salvaged title. It was repaired since repairs cost less than the value of my car. There was no engine damage, just body work and my frame was bent a little.

I have an automatic '05 with almost 25k miles and the only "option" I have is leather seats. There are two small dents not related to the accident, but they would be easy to pull back out b/c there's no paint damage. If this was your car, how much would you list it for?

Thanks!

 

Bent frame = lost resale value.

Even if it was repaired, an accident is an accident and hurts resale value. It degrades the structural integrity of the car.

 

put it on ebay and sell it with no reserve, you'll get 12-13k

 

Thanks. I was hoping for $13k, but wasn't sure if I'd get it. Someone has one for sale near me that does have a salvage title for $10,000 so I thought I should at least get more than that!

 

if it has a clean title u should have no problem selling it on ebay or autotrader. i have sold 8 cars already and i used autotrader. if u want to get a certain price for ur car tho, u might have to wait... but trust me there will always be someone who will buy ur car for the money ur asking. i sold a 98 integra with 140k miles on the clock for 5300 2 years ago when every person in town was not offering more than 4000, but i waited 7 months til a buyer came thru

 

yup MU is rite you should be able 2 get what you want according to kbb.com you can ask up to 14,810 do so home work call diffrent places ask them how much their sellin thier tc for and online as well hope you get what ya want good luck!

 

autotrader is wonderful for selling cars.

 

ebay it up
