| RE: Is it worth the repair? | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | Chuck Tobias | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| You did not state your trim level, engine, or mileage, but according to Kelley Blue Book (kbb.com) the trade-in value of a base model 2011 Outback in good condition, with mileage figured at 12K/year, ranges from about $1600 to $3000, typically about $2300. (You can enter your car's specific details there to get a more accurate estimate but it's probably not going to be a whole lot higher.) | |||||
| Answer to: Is this Buick worth looking at? | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | Chuck Tobias | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Seeing as how you'd be starting out with a car that's 25 years old, how much longer do you really expect to get out of it? (For something this old it helps if you can do your own repair work.) For what it's worth, Kelley Blue Book (kbb.com) pegs the private party value of that car in good condition at about $2000-$2700. | |||||
| 2018 Nissan NV3500 Engine Problems | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | BKurilla | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| ... when accelerating between 3-4000 RPM the engine gets “stuck” in that rpm range and jerks until you let off the gas and it shifts down. Otherwise driving is normal. Warranty has expired and both Nissan and other mechanics can’t figure it out. Solenoids have been changed and the light will still go on/off at times for the same error. We took it to another mechanic that found chunks of metal, old silicone, and old o-rings in the oil pan and they recommended replacing the engine (no used available) and associated parts like water pump, hoses etc for $19,000.

| Answer to: Is it worth fixing a bad head gasket on my 2013 Toyota Avalon Hybrid? | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | elvisal99 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| As a fellow Avalon owner myself (I have a 2016), I can say that I absolutely love mine and can understand your dilemma. Avalons/Lexus ES350s can generally last several hundred thousand miles, as you are now one of those who can testify to this as well. I did a quick kbb value search on your car, and for a 2013 Avalon with 331550 in relatively good condition, you can expect to try and sell it for $6,000-$7,000 private party. How much does the shop want to replace the head gasket? This combined with the $1,500 in repairs you've already spent should be taken in ... | |||||
| Answer to: How much is a 2000 Ford Excursion worth? | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | Chuck Tobias | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Highly unlikely. Of course a seller can ask anything they want to for a vehicle. That doesn't necessarily mean they'll get that much unless they can find a buyer who just wants the thing and doesn't care what it costs. Although kbb.com doesn't show that Eddie Bauer thing as an option, they peg the value of a 2000 Excursion Limited 2WD with that engine and mileage at about $10,000. I have no idea how much extra the inclusion of "Eddie" would bring to the table. | |||||
| Answer to: 2013 Diesal VW GTI Rebuilt Title | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | Dad2LM2 | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| This is a really interesting question. The usual car valuation services (eg, kbb) aren't going to work here. And with a rare car like that, you aren't going to find too many comparable listings. Now, you are talking about a dieselgate-era VW with a salvage title. The objective value is zero. The problem is that the expected cost for maintenance and repairs on a car like that is going to be very high, easily greater than the initial sales price. There is no sales price at which you would not be better off buying a good car to start with. The only monet ... | |||||

| ... probably get them down to $34K driveout. Autotrader says the current 36,500 list price is over 1000 below kbb fair value range. I'm currently entertaining taking a test drive; I haven't physically seen the vehicle yet, so unsure of the condition under the vehicle in terms of rust, etc... The carfax report shows the following: - 4 prior owners - Repaired, moderate damage on drivers side parking lot accident; all reported - Vehicle always owned in Texas so likely little to no rust issues - Oil changes, etc... appear to be inline with expectations (ever ... | |||||
| Should I buy a Lexus GS? | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | Cheezyboy | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Hey Scotty, There are 2 Lexus GS models for sale that I just looked at. 1. 06' Lexus GS 300 w/87k miles selling for $11.5. Which I will try and negotiate down. 2 owners. Clean title. 2. 08' Lexus GS 350 w/45k mi. clean title. Being sold for 16k. Sent him an offer and he says the best he could do is $12.5. Which is what I checked on kbb. My question to you is which one is a better buy maintenance, parts, repair cost and reliability wise? Or are they both too old to buy as a daily at this point? | |||||

| Kelley Blue Book can be used as a general price guide. Upon entering the needed info in the "my car's value" section, you are provided with a general assessment of a cars value. It's essential to recognize it's only a tool, but it can be very helpful. | |||||

| ... the absolute bricks off it and it has over 300,000 miles and it still runs and drives excellent. With that being said I know the history of this car and it has been immaculately cared for its whole life. The guy is asking $4600 which is under kbb and I’m fine paying it. I just want to know if you and the members of this group think this would be a good investment. Thanks for your time and advice. | |||||
| Answer to: 2007 Escape transmission woes… | 9Relevance | 2 years ago | Chuck Tobias | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Unfortunately, transmission problems are common on that model: What you need is a transmission expert who will analyze what's going on using a professional-grade scan tool to see what's actually happening inside. If you're lucky it may be something not too expensive to repair. Bear in mind when weighing your options that vehicle is only worth about $3500 in good condition (per kbb.com which reports inflated prices), so I would not throw a lot more money into that thing (see the "sunk cost fallacy"). | |||||
