TimTaylor751647545500 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 My sister-in-law recently had a baby and they replaced her 2006 Saturn Ion Coupe 2 (5 spd) with a 2012 Kia Sorento. Now they're debating about just selling it to Carmax (appraisal yet to happen) or sell it outright. After doing some search, we're seeing prices for these cars all over the board. There's no issues with the car other than the lower control arm bushings are worn out ($40 in parts), so she's really not sure what to accept from Carmax or price the car at. Any estimates as to what would be a fair price to ask for the car? Silver car, 128k miles, 5 spd, pwr locks, windows, mirrors, cruise, wheels covers. Thanks fellas.

evan9381 Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 WAY less than if it was any color except silver. :gabe: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurboRust Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 id say 3500-4000 but honestly those control arm bushings are cheap but a total shop repair would be about 250 with alignment soooo its like saying well it needs a rear main seal its only an $18 part. I'd tell them to either fix it or be willing to take 250-300 less then "good" contition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
