92Lex Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Go to KBB.com to find out an average going price for you car. Please check its value based on a "Private Party" sale, and rate the condition of your car fairly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lexusfreak Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 Agreed, in addition to that you might want to check outwww.autotrader.com & check local listings to see what other simular LS are selling for in & around your area.

jvcn Posted November 23, 2004 Share Posted November 23, 2004 This is probably obvious, but look at Ebay and especially go through the completed transactions. Note the differences between what people ask for and what they really get. Also note which cars don't sell at all because the sellers ask for way too much. Ebay is the best indicator of current market conditions. The market seems to have dropped as we approach the end of the year. Usually you can do a little bit better than Ebay if you find a local buyer but of course you have fewer buyers. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
