Trade-In Value of 2004 350z Enthusiast?

tresani · 11-07-2009, 05:49 PM

Hi Everyone,
So I am considering moving up to a 370z, I currently own a 2004 350z Enthusiast (automatic, suckit all you stick people), and I love it! However, its about time for a new car and I'm wondering what people who have traded in their Z's in the past few months have gotten for trade in value.

One dealer offered me 10k for it, which seems on the low side - but again, maybe I just feel that way because its my baby and only has 37,000 miles on it.

Thanks everyone!

10k sounds about right

Why not try to sell it privately and you could get maybe 12k for it.

Why not look at KBB for an estimate?

It states 12,700$ for it traded in and 14,850$ private party sell..

Sad to see our cars worth so little now.

it really will vary dealer by dealer, and as much as 20% sometimes...all depends if that dealer has a demand for your particular type/condition of car

I did look here, and saw this and felt it was a low estimate from a dealer.

However, god-forbid, I know KBB has been wrong or inaccurate to current market values before. Hence this post!

So what have other people gotten for their 2004 350z's in trade-in to a dealer?

Come on look at KBB. KBB is not wrong: its just an average. Figure KBB plus or minus 10 percent. BTW if you are selingl a 350Z in the winter go with KBB minus 10 percent.
