Two bit

Hello everybody, I've been here for a little while...since december I believe but I am in a bit of a tough decision. I paid 13 for my ES300 at the time it had 55k miles. Now it has 63k miles, brand spankin new tires, and the 60k mile maint was taken care of. I got the car so low bc the person needed the cash quick but is the car worth more in private value? It's a 00 with premium audio, no HID's and the 3 split spoked wheels. Little road rash on one of the wheels from the previous owner and some scrapin here and there. Minor little penny sized or less dings here and there. Let me know what you think. Also would it be worth it to trade in and pay the rest of an IS thats >20k or just private sell it then pay for an IS? Give me your opinions

p.s. sorry if this is in the wrong section...not sure where to post it.

sell the car privately you can always get more money, but then you have to do more to advertise, meet with people, test drive, etc... so it's more money but more hassle, it's your call.

on the other hand trade in is easier, you just go in, get the car you like and drop off the keys for the old car. but in return you get less money

If you had a good deal when you got the ES, just sell it privately with a low price. You'll be able to sell it much faster, and you pass the "good karma."

Good luck and keep us informed with the progress.
