Default Thinking of selling my 01 S8...

Unfortunately it might be up for sale as of next week, and I'm unsure how much to ask for it. Kelly blue book says around 30 grand, what do you think?

Some pictures..Thanks

Default Listed my '03 S8, 43k miles, for $32.5k....

Put it on Craigslist in Chicago. Will put on Autotrader or Cars.com soon. As much as I would like to think I can get $32k, I am not sure I would be that lucky (feedback?).

An '01 will not sell for 30k, IMO. $25k would probably be a good price, but I have not watched prices that closely.

Default Kelly is way off on these values. There is an '03 Ming blue CPO w/24K miles on cars.com......

for $32.9K. My guess is that an '01 with 40K miles should bring in around $27K.

yeah,each car is different though. Just because it is listed for that amount does not mean my car with less miles is worth less. Maybe that one has a accident history or who knows what...you know?

Thanks

Default Realistically, your car is worth $25K

In another year, it will probably tank from $25K. It's already six years old.

No educated buyer will respect the KBB numbers. Start with Edmunds, then drop $1-2k.
