95,000 KM Beater. You will literally repel any p*ssy you come across... but you will arrive A to B and even Z if needed. 
These are my secret fetish. CLK430 hairdresser mobile. Very reliable, easy to work on and lots of space to access things in the engine bay for when things to break. Common issues as to why $5000 examples never cut it: these like to rust at the front fenders, and by 180-200k KM the interior likes to rattle / squeak.
32,000 KM local BC car with the AMG wheels. $12,800 dealer price. https://vancouver.craigslist.org/rch...955041491.html

^ LOL at the Corolla ad saying it’s RWD
That slightly purple brown colour has to be one of the worst colours Toyota ever put on a car. Just being near it is like saying “Good night sweet prince” to your cock.

Yes it's my car and yes it's a super good buy.
Basically I ordered a new car and dealer offered me $18,000 only. The Canadian Black Book trade-in value for this car is $22,600 to $24,620.
If there's no takers then it will just get traded in for approximately 10 grands below how much it's actually worth.
Now is your time to snatch it up. Totally mint 13 STi hatchback. https://vancouver.craigslist.org/bnc...947868061.html

Now is your time to snatch it up. Totally mint 13 STi hatchback. https://vancouver.craigslist.org/bnc...947868061.html | I think it's very fair to say that if the dealer is offering you $18,000, you should not expect people to pay you more than $21,000 to $21,500.. The same thing happened with my TSX. The dealer offered me $5,000 trade-in (+tax savings = $5,600), and I was trying to sell it for $6,000 or even $5,800 to some serious buyers, but nobody was willing to take it. Now the dealer is selling it for $8,000+doc fee+tax. I know for a fact the car needed nothing, and I even detailed it+kept it clean, so they didn't have to do any work other than a quick in&out cleaning.
TL;DR: you should only expect about 5% more than what the dealer is offering you for trade-in, should you choose to go that route. Time is obviously a constraint here; if you wanted more money for your car, you should have not ordered your new car so soon. Your best bet is to patiently sell it privately.

I sold mine for 8k.

I had a friend recently buy the same body style with 92k for $17,000. You'll easily find buyers at $20-21 at your mileage if you're looking to squeeze a few more $$$. Patience is key!

Haha you think everyone here was born yesterday... $18,000 trade-in... so you're getting a value of $20,160 including the tax savings toward your new car... and you think someone is going to give you $26,800 and that they're getting a good deal?
Whatever....... tell you what, I'll give you $20,161 for it man. You're getting $1 profit over your existing deal so it's still better for you.
First rule of business? Don't tell your buyer(s) your cost maybe? lol... if you think anyone is going to offer you anything more than $21k knowing all this you're crazy. They'll just walk away and tell you to go ahead and trade it in and you're out an extra $840 you could have had. No one here is going to do you the favour of making extra money at their cost.

I think i made a rule for this thread years ago about posting your car up unless its actually a good buy. Unfortunately, I haven't been on RS in awhile and forgot how to ban ppl from specific threads  | |

13K E46 M3 in PY with a bit of rice. The kinda rice I like, except the wheels, and the paint. 178xxx
Claims it's legal mods. Guess the seller is aware of the VI situation.

I would love to find a low mileage unmolested e46 m3 for the right price. Preferably 2003.5-2006
I saw there was a convertible for 29k with only 16km. That would be my dream but IMO priced a little high considering convertible doesn’t fetch as much as coupe.
