Opinion on depreciation

[Smokinhot]

What would you guys feel the depreciation value of my 2012 Accent would be w/5200mi?

MSRP was $17,100. The ONLY reason I bring it up is I've just been searching and found this

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detai...pp=50&feedSegId=28705&aff=national&listType=1

which was what I wanted in the first place but NO ONE had a manual at the time I purchased and I need a car badly. I'm just looking and inquiring bc none of the cars appraisal sites have anything for my care yet

Edit: Never mind. Saw the year.

 

[Smokinhot]

this one is way over priced though

 

[Bru]

You're likely in a good spot since it's an automatic. Autos hold their value better than manuals because most people want an automatic.

Unfortunately, our depreciation numbers from Automotive Lease Guide only start at 24 months. http://www.cars.com/go/alg/index.jsp?makename=Hyundai&modelname=ACCENT&year=2012

Trade in or private sale?

Dealers are asking about $16 for examples with about 5K on them (Auto/5 door Examples below).

So count on eating at least a grand or most likely 2 on a trade-in honestly...

It might not be that bad with him having an auto and them having a manual.

Why not see what they say Nick?

Exactly, its hard to get an actual value of mine then

Trade in or private sale?

It would have to be a trade-in

 

[Dasfinc]

It would have to be a trade-in

Realistically they may offer 14 for it if I had to ball-park IMO.

This I know

I plan on finding out. I asked my dealer to look into since a month after I bought it. I need a manual, this auto is killing me and the mpg's kinda suck IMO. But that could be on my part. The a/t is quite a bit more sluggish though

 

[Bru]

Not your fault. It's a problem many owners are complaining about.

 

[Yaj Yak]

what is bad mpgs?

 

[Smokinhot]

I love the car though, as fairy as it might sound. Its perfect as far as my needs in a DD go.

I just called the dealer and talked a bit. Scheduled a sit down for tomo

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

Just tell them a straight trade.

 

[Smokinhot]

what is bad mpgs?

Ok, not exactly bad but it honestly should be much higher

70% being highway miles and netting 30 but no more than, 32 for my daily commuting.

Just tell them a straight trade.

I wish!!

 

[THEHKP7M13]

Keep me posted. I would like to know if the dealer is stand up or if they looking to add many thousands onto your loan to do it.

 

[Lord Tin Foilhat]

me too.

 

[Fish]

You should get the manual. I hear slow manual cars are cooler to drive then fast auto cars.

 

[Aircal]

I really don't think they will offer you 2k below what they ask for them as a trade.
And just throwing it out there, my GTP gets 26 in mixed driving and 34 highway.

 

[Smokinhot]

Got a flat fuckin tire about an hr ago coming home from work Thankfully I was going to and wasn't far from my brother's house, so I'm using his subie. Sure puts a damper on going to the dealer tomorrow and talking. Now I have to get a tire since the side wall blew out!

First this I do next on this car is get a steel 14" wheel/tire and a jack. The accessory store sells a kit. Either way

 

[Smokinhot]

Well pretty much, this isn't happening. I was suppose to meet w/a woman at the dealer but she wasn't in today, so they stuck me w/some bumble fuck old man who didn't know shit. He was trying to sell me all kinds of shit, I really fucking hate stealerships.... Oh well, I knew it wasn't gonna be good but had to inquire anyway.

Not sure how "accurate" the numbers were but who ever he talked to came up w/ $120 more on my payment :jerkit:

Get the truck fixed, sell Hyundai privately and then shop around for what you want.

not gonna happen, I didn't put money down on it so I owe quite a bit more than what I could ever get privately/what its worth. They could get a new one financed for cheaper. And I don't have the money to cover the rest owed. I'll just stick with it, it's my fuck up. I wish there was a loop hole
