my '04 car has 27,200 miles on it... in near perfect condition... they offered me $17,500. (cash offer... as they call it). a direct buy... no car purchase from them.

i thought this price was very fair.

and no i'm not getting rid of my car to carmax... just trying to help out another board member.
Thanks Andrew, I really appreciate you saving me a 600 mile round trip to C-Bus. Not that I mind driving it, but that would've been a LONG ride home knowing I'd get about $18.5K for my ride and the buyout price is like $23.5K... Thus shooting down any chance of me getting out of my Crossfire and into the EVO that I really need. OH well, I've enjoyed the ride so far and for the next 22 months I will continue to do so...unless someone takes me up on my offer...HELP ME PLEASE!!!


Once again, thanks Andrew!
