need a solid please

[ELVIS]

my father in law passed a week or so ago so mamaw no longer needs 2 vehicles. can anyone tell me if a $ 15k offer from carmax on a 2012 honda crv lx trim with 32k miles is fair? auto, cloth, power everything, rear view camera. thanks gents.

god bless.

[Baba Ganoush]

Seems a little low with that mileage. I bet it would retail above $20k but I could be mistaken.

[Tremor14]

what's owed on it? if that will pay it off i'd just get out of it given the circumstances.

[ELVIS]

Obv. I'm just trying to make sure she doesn't get ripped, they owe like $4k.

God bless.

[Tremor14]

i'd take it, and run, or sell it private party.. i looked on craigslist and there are only 2 2012's priced the same, but with 90k+

[Slow Five-O]

Doesn't sound like a bad deal. They're there to make money, so obviously you'd make more selling it privately but if you're just looking for ease then that's not too bad. as long as you come away "happy" with what they give you .

[ELVIS]

Yeah the kbb is within $1000-1500. I'm assuming we are paying for the ease of transaction.

God bless.

[War Machine]

assuming its awd I'd say that's about right

[Big A]

More than you'd get as a trade-in, but as has been said, less than you'll get private party. Imp it's worth a grand or so not to have to dick with advertising and mouthbreathers coming to the house. I sold my Ranger to Carmax when I bought the M3.

If you can, contact the old Frank Kent Honda dealer on the west side of Fort Worth. They used to buy nice low mileage Hondas for more than what Carmax would. We had them look at our 04 Accord when we were looking to replace it. Their offer was about 1600 more than Carmax.

What's her other vehicle?

Since you have the CarMax offer in your hip pocket, see if you can sell it for more. If you can't then take it in to CarMax on the last day and unload it.

agreed, if im not mistaken carmax stands by their offer for 7 days.

[Slow Five-O]

That is correct. Offer is guaranteed for 7 days.

Above average condition MMR at manheim on that car is $15.5K. That is with sub 30K miles. I would say that it's a very fair offer.
