I don't see why not. Looks to be in good shape. Car has relatively low miles.

If anything will kill it, would be the accident listed on the carfax. Even though you stated what it was...people lie on the Internet all the time.....not saying you are, but skepticism is skeptical.

I'd wager you would probably get around $18k for the trade-in.

For a fact you'd loss at least 3-5k trading in compared to selling it.
Try Craigslist. That's how we sold our old car.

People still use the old fashion newspaper too, there are many auto newspaper type mags too (you see them at grocery stores, etc).

Autotrader and craigslist. I sold my truck the first day listing it on craigslist and I've used autotrader in the past with good success.

Always sell privately instead of trade-in - you'll get more money. But doing a trade-in does give you some leverage when negotiating with the stealerships.

If it didn't have the carfax, then you would probably be at the 19,500-20,500 for trade in, but remember if we are selling a car with a bad carfax we get hit hard, no one believes the dealership at all. Should sell privately though for close to your asking. GLWS

I sold my last 2 cars through carbuyco.com. On one they offered me almost 30% more than carmax did. On the other one 18%.

Depending on how fast you want to sell the car, consider putting it up on Craigslist w/o the Accident Report. If people call and inquire tell them about it (as long as it was a bs accident). It might take longer but if it was only an accident effecting the body, most people shouldn't care.
But if you don't want to play games and whatnot then just put up the report.

Holman Infinit in cherry hill offer close to 21k for my car. You can try taking it there if you want garunteed cash
