Thinking of trading my 06 to an 09 tc?
how much will i be looking to pay more if i trade my 06 automatic to a brand new 09 manual. i'm thniking of getting it around november-december when the car will be paid off.
the car is in very good conditions, it has the trd exaust, lower, srs airbags (7 or 9) aftermarket wheels, it has about 37,000 miles on it, it has the ipod ready stereo and the scion security.
here's a pic of my car.
Any idea how much more i'll be looking to spend for a brand new 09 black Manual tc or even an 08 with pretty much the same options, security, lower, exaust, and i guess stock wheels oh and the srs airbags (curtin and seat all of those)

I like those wheels.
I would consider a private party (see: used car) before trading in at a dealer; trade-in values are pretty low right now, and you might be pretty disappointed for what you get.

hey man car looks pretty tight!! Honestly i don't know if it's worth trading it in for a new one. If you really think about it there really aren't that many differences between the '09s and '06s (aside for the small and obvious cosmetic 'enhancements'). Your gonna lose a couple grand on the depreciation of the '06, and once you drive that '09 off the lot, the same is going to happen. Save your money for a 350z

well it sounds like he wants to trade it in to get a manual transmission instead of an automatic, so he isn't trading for the new headligts, tail lights and uh...darker seat fabric so much as it is for a manual transmission really.

be ready to pay anywhere from 8-10K for a new one...
i was thinking about doing it too... looked into it and dealers around here wanted at least 7k on top of my car's value for a new one...
and my car only have 19K miles on it...and like only salesman said...aftermarket stuff don't add to the value of the car...

Damn new model comes out 2010..well it was a good run - lol..hope they don't switch it up too much. and to the o.p. - try to wait it out until you can see some spy photos...'06 to '09 for transmission and the couple other enhancements is still just lateral move in my book.

transmission from auto to manual is hardly a lateral move if he is concerned about performance.. it is more like a giant leap
But, I would go with having no payments. Trading in every few years is just costing you money all the time.
And you can go on kbb.com and find your expected trade in value.

Man in my own opinion based ont he facts you gave us........
tC is paid off in full in 4 months........means you own it and no one can take it away.
You drive an auto...........who cares........my auto is just as fast as every stick and all have is IHEP..........no differance in speed
You will get raped on tradein and be stuck with more payments.........
Wait tillthe new tC comes out in a year and if it is better you will be way ahead of the pack as your old car still has great value due to miles on it are low.
