Is anybody serious about selling their MS3 to get the 08.5?

[jbiird317]

deal! Jbiiird is in DE. He has my other set of Ultras. Maybe we can schedule a triad of stupidery.

im in...

 

[Young Roids]

Damn, and I just picked mine up less than a month ago...
You think the dealer would be willing to take mine back with an extra 1200 miles...for an exchange for the gray one...?
I'll even give them my tint for free...

I doubt it very much that they would do a straight trade. The tint would probly be viewed as a bad thing by the dealer.

I would be very interested in what the dealer would acctualy give you for and MS3 traded in twords an 08.5 model. Maybe Adam could shed some light on it.

If you're a financial dolt, you'll get rid of your 07 for the 08.

well kbb and nada do not have values for the 07 speed3. the only book with a value is blackbook, which is what we use for trade in values. my GT no navi with a little over 15k miles books for around 17k in average condition. it has retail as 21k. i am going to try to sell mine myself. i mean i got 3 months before they are even close to being here, so there is time. ha only problem is if i sell it too early and am without a car. the saying in the car business is "a car is worth however much someone is willing to pay".

 

[Young Roids]

Yes I noticed that there is no KBB prices on these cars. I figure that I would pay someone 19.5K for their used ms3. That way I would still be paying more than the trade in value. Any more than that and I will just wait and buy a new pearl white one new wich is the color I want anyway.

P.S. I have not heard of black book before. Is that a public thing like the kbb?

Yessir ther is indeed. New colors= pearl white and metro gray. And no more cosmic blue and silver. I always thought that the cosmic blue was such a lame shade of blue. They needed a bright blue.

Triad? How about a Quad?

Edmunds has used prices for the MS3. For me to trade up to a new 8.5. I would at least need to see some pics of it first. I find it interesting that the new WRX STI has a similar color to the mazda metro gray. Maybe if the new ones came with factory ultraleggeras...hmmmm

ha did you see the starting price of the new sti??? 35 grand!!! loaded with nav is gonna run right at 40. i love em but damn.

 

[Nachtsturm]

If I could get it done for like 1k out of pocket and keep it near my current payment I would do it. Car only has 700miles.

But otherwise, I don't think I am going to do it. I am just pissed I didn't wait one more month and see this.

By the time they come in I should owe about 19k on my speed and have about 3-4k on it. If they gave me 18k, I think I would do it.

I will give you 18k for it.

pm me with a price when you're ready to sell and I'll keep an eye out for you. I'm in retail sales so I see a lot of people

 

[Nachtsturm]

I will give you 18k for it.

I would lose the tax savings though...and I heard the cars won't be out untill May.

 

[jichoe]

...and I heard the cars won't be out untill May.

Is this true? I was just about ready to trade in my STI.

production starts in january, and you can expect them a couple months from then. they could be ready by march. mays not out of the question, i would just be surprised if it took 4 months from the time they're built. build doesn't take very long, then they have a a couple weeks at sea, then time at port for more install, then another week or so for delivery once they leave port for the stores. mid to late march is my guess.
