Default question about selling car back to the dealer

I don't want to spend a lot of time posting and selling my car so I was curious as to if I could just sell the car back to the dealer for approximately trade in value and avoid the hassle. I've asked around and everyone seems to believe it is all trade in. If not then where do I go for a place that doesn't totally rape me on the turn in. thanks for any input!

its better to find a replacement 1st. trade it in on that. when trading a vehicle in, you get a tax credit on the amount. That's equal to a couple grand in your case.

thats true on the trade in but i plan on getting my replacement car through an authorized internet dealer and i cant drive my car all the way out there so i need to sell it locally then use the proceeds to help downpay on the car. i dont mind losing money overall i just wondered if i could sell it into the dealership for trade in value.

cool should have the car back to stock in a few weeks. If anyone wants an 07 enthusiast with 6500 at the moment let me know! Itll be probably one of the cheapest since I'm looking for a quick and easy transaction with a local otherwise sell to the dealer

I talked to a car dealer friend of mine about trading in once, they would'nt even use lube! Try autotrader asap, and get the unlimited ad. Maybe een try selling it with the Volks and springs. You might break even
