I'd stop my Carmax and get a quote from Carvana. That way you know worst case. Go from there.

We actually considered that, but then there’s the issue of the VIN. LOL

I will read all posts but I just saw this. Get it Wrapped instead of painted. It's cheaper than paint and you can always revert back to the original color! Win-Win!


Edit: Now it is different if you only one one Type R.

That’s a great idea. Only thing is it’s my wife’s car and she doesn’t want to put extra miles in it going here & there. She might change her mind (I hope).

Considered trading mines in and the Honda dealership offered $33k. Wasn't going to take a $5k bath when I had the car for less than 6 months and only 2-3k miles.

Carvana said they would give me 26K for mine. Yeah right, I know I can get more. Yes it has been in two minor accidents but you literally cannot tell from looking at it. Only thing is damn rock chips everywhere.

When it comes to accidents people only care what the Carfax says. My '18 Murano I traded had a black piece of plastic on the bumper replaced ($117 with labor) because a cop bumped me at a stop light. Regardless how minor, I got shafted out of $2500 on my trade because of the "accident" on my Carfax

I've been watching the market for the past 2 years and just went in on a new 2019.

I'd say KBB / market value for yours is ~$34,500 to $36,000 conservatively based off what I've seen recent sell prices

Tell uncle Gerry to stop burning through his retirement money
He is no dummy. Retired from a long employment with a well known tech company. I am sure he is doing just fine.

But I did tease him a bit about paying too much.

I guess it depends where you live. There are 109 used type Rs within 200 miles of me all 33 to 35k depending on year for sale. When dealers are selling them for that cant really expect more then 31 to 33 depending on year as a trade. Mine was a 17 they gave me 31 trade and have it for sale at 33,700. So they aint getting rich. People comimg in demanding 34 or 35k trade is unrealistic when they are selling them for 33. In my area anyway.

The reason their so cheap in your area is because of all the traffic!;)
