Ok I have made up my mind on trading my 05 BSP TC 5spd for an 06 Camo XB, I have gone to about 10 different dealers today and have all kinds of different responses and appraisal values. I have had trade in values from $12,500 to $15,700 (at Scion dealers) and Ive also had an appraisal at a Dodge Dealership for a $19,600!! Anyway I want an XB so what I am trying to find out is if anyone traded there TC's in at Scion dealerships and what did you get for them with how many miles. Thanks, I am posting this in TC General and XB General for quick feedback.

 

Obviously, the Dodge dealer would probably give you the best trade in as it would be easier to sell your tC than most of what else he has on the lot. Of course you have to buy one of his new cars to get that kind of trade money. If you are getting a 15,700 trade in for a used tC for a new xB and really want the xB you should have made that your last stop. It won't get any better than that.

 

How many miles do you have on your tC? I've been throwing around this idea as well.

 

Rule of thumb...make sure their "Trade In" amount is on official document and not a folder, napkin or word of mouth. Too bad there isn't a CarMax in NJ. They give you the written trade in offer on a contractual paper.

 

nice to see some peeps goin for the box!!

as for trade in value you could also go for whichever Scion dealer has the xB you want and can get it the soonest lol!!

 

U can always sell the tc on your own and get more for your money.

15,700 is not bad trade in. I would see if they can do 16,100

Just sound better

 

The 15,700 number sounds pretty close to fair at a Scion dealer, depending on it's condition. BCP seems hard to get right now too.

The Dodge number is probably smoke and mirrors.

Enjoy your new xB!
