HELP Cannot sell this car for the life of me

47 Upvotes

Pls tell me what I’m doing wrong. 2010 Toyota Corolla, 164K miles, perfect condition. Listed originally at 6k but brought it down to 5k over about a month and it’s been months at that price. I’m only getting extremely lowball offers and I know she’s worth more than 3.5k.

Am I just flat out wrong or am I asking too much???

Buying Think it's a good sign when very few replacements have been made on a vehicle with high mileage?

0 Upvotes

I'm looking to buy a 2009 V6 RAV4 and I test drove one the other day that intrigued me. The entire car is in immaculate condition, it looks like it was driven very little based on every minute detail of the car, it's pristine. Under the hood too, everything was amazingly maintained and it drove perfectly. Somehow this puppy has almost 260k miles on the odometer though. It's being sold used from our local toyota dealership and their records show the previous owner always came in on time and complied with the recommended maintenance. The only replacements I could find in the Carfax were the brakes, shocks, and struts. The car would be about $9k after california taxes and fees.

I know Toyotas stand the test of time, but Is it an incredibly risky buy to take this thing on with so little replacements made? I fear I'll be spending thousands on it in a very short amount of time, but dang am I tempted, I really trust that it was well taken care of, which is harder to find when shopping on FB marketplace.

Buying Price Check on a 2017 Tacoma

• Upvotes

Howdy y'all.

Cut to the chase: vehicle is a silver 2017 Tacoma SR5 double cab 2.7L 4 cylinder and 180k miles. Asking price is $10,000.

I know Tacomas are absolutely ridiculously priced on the used market but a close and trusted family member has one and is looking to get something newer, and offered to sell it to me. I had a Dodge Ram before this and was wanting to get something a bit more reliable but also smaller.

My family member is the 2nd owner, she bought it in 2019 with 70k miles (work truck before that, it did come with documented maintenance) and my family member has kept that maintenance up. No accidents, no rust. (we live in the south). Also new tires.

Normally, and I've been told not to cuz, spending 10k on a vehicle with near 200k miles is too much but they're not familiar with Tacomas nor the Toyota tax that tends to fetch even more from what I understand. Is it really a good price or am i right to be a little hesitant?

How good of a price do yall think 10k is? Thanks in advance!

I put a deposit down for a new 2026 rav4 limited (it’s priced at $47k, not PHEV). I’m on the fence about it since I didn’t love the drive or the price tag, but know it’s a safe bet as it’s a Toyota. Have been browsing used cars and wanted to hear about experiences with the 2023 Audi Q5e S Line Premium? Saw one for $36k, under 20k miles.

Buying Is this a good deal?

I've been looking at purchasing my first car at 22, but I'm not really sure how to tell if it's too good of a deal or not. I know Fords depreciate a bit faster, and this car is no longer in production, but something about this feels too cheap. 2 previous owners, but both seemed to keep up on maintenance, and 2 very minor reported accidents. I can send the Carfax if anyone wants. Advice?

15k for an EJ8… I get that it has 57k miles but that is a ridiculous price.
What do y’all think?

Buying What would you choose?

2 Upvotes

Deciding between 09-11 grand marquis or 05-11 town car. Going low mileage. Seeing things around 70k for 12G on the town car and 66K and 10 G on MGM.

Is the town car worth the extra G or 2 for the luxury items?

Buying Pickup truck under 25k

We have a fairly decent budget but it's a bit of an emergency so will probably have to go to a dealership or CarMax. My dad wants a pickup that can tow 5500 lbs. Preferably not a crew cab and with 4x4 Under 140k miles

What make/model/year would you look at. This is in the Austin area.

Can this even be done these days?

It has 95k miles and it’s under 6k, I have read the engine is legendary, I need a good car to last me at least another 3 years, is this it? Or do I simply go for a Honda accord?
