Sep. 16th, 2008 01:51 amI took my car in for an oil change the other day, and there was this guy from Corporate there offering a deal if anybody was willing to trade in their Toyota: up to $5,000 over Kelley's Blue Book value. I was in a hurry (as usual), and I didn't know what the blue book value of my car was, so I didn't take it, but I sure did look it up when I got home.
$10,000 if in "good" condition; $11,000 if in "excellent" condition. My car is at least in "good" condition.
So I was thinking, if they would give me $15,000 for my car, I'd be able to pay off my auto loan and still have money left over for a down payment on a used car. I'd miss my lovely Yaris, but it would make it a heck of a lot easier to move out once my parents make the move to Michigan.
So I'm gonna call tomorrow and see if the offer is still good. Hopefully, if it's not a good idea, it'll become apparent to me before I do anything rash.
