Help car value ?

Very accurate...

Dealer quoted me $13k for my first G4. I was amazed but not surprised…at all.

... they might twist numbers around to make it look like you're getting a fair value ...

Very accurate.

If you want to know the wholesale value of your car (the amount a dealer will probably offer you as a trade-in), just fill out a form on Carvana or Vroom as if you want to sell them your car. I did this with my Mirage a couple of years ago. Now every month or so they send me an updated report of what my 2015 Mirage is worth (to them). It's worth some entertainment value.

Here's my latest Carvana value report...




I just noticed that my mileage wasn't up-to-date. So I updated my odometer reading (from 104K to 133K) and they adjusted their offer slightly...



WTF!?!? In another couple of months I'll have to pay them to come and pick it up.

What the @$#$!...this is getting stupid.

Here's my latest "vehicle value tracker report" from Carvana...

Overall, used Mirage prices seem a little better for consumers.

If I had to replace my Mirage today, my search parameters are 2017+, 5-speed manual, within a 500 mile radius, under $10,000. For a long time, not much existed.

Today I see - 2017 Mirage ES manual, 72,800 miles for $7,699 (no accidents reported). I could live with something like that. It's a clone of my current Mirage with fewer miles.

Yeah, the valuation services from online and dealers are ludicrous. If I sold mine, I'd look at the MSRP of the latest model and drop a few-several $1,000's based on mileage. While the dealer would offer $7,000 and then sell it for $14,000

I think I have Comprehensive on a couple of the nicer ones. Like blue truck and LS 460L. I'm surprised deer aren't required to carry minimal liability insurance ... at least in California.

I think its roughly a fair price given the current postings on facebook marketplace in ontario.
Remember people think the mirage is a "bad" or "cheap" car so the resale value is currently not good.

In future I hope it rises like the old toyotas (tercel, camry, corrolla) where over time people realize the reliability (old is gold).

I believe resale value don’t mean much if one incline to keep it indefinitely, and it goes for any car.

Completely agree.

Intending to not sell it so could care less about the resale value.

I am just saying the normies dont value these machines.

Only the latest and greatest in SUV computational technologies and driver tickling assistance is desired.

And dont forget all this belly aching about car theft and cat theft.

Mirage is theft proof because the locks are manual and the cats are protected, better profits are had at the next kia.

@Fummins is it really a money pit per km?

I did the calculations one day but mirage is cheaper than flying for me per km and cheaper than the bus in Toronto.

Makes me laugh when I hear of people avoiding road trips because of "depreciation" or "increase in car maintenance".
