Default Must let RC-F go

Does anyone know what I could get if I sell my RC-F to a dealer? i live in NorCal and unfortunately need to unload my RC-F. It has only 1600 miles and is immaculate. Prelim feedback I've received is around 53-54, which is way lower than I'd like to settle for. I know you take a hit selling to a dealer but I prefer not to sell on my own, and I still own on the car.

You have dealers offering brand new one Fully loaded with Carbon Roof + TVD nearly $80k MSRP car for $57k?

Which dealer is that? Myself and other potential buyers would like to know

To the OP, is your RCF Fully loaded? Which package does it have?
You can probably put it on eBay and get way more than that or put it on Cars.com

20k off? I call bull**** on that, maybe a base one but not an 80k sticker car.

I am a lexus salesman. All RCFs have at 4000 to 5000 markup, more options equal more mark up. In my lexus area there is a 5,000 dealer cash available. you are exactly right 20k off is absolutely mad!!! but i wouldnt doubt a dealer would get close to that, some dealers are all about volume.

The RC-F described above is my car. Original post was asking what a fair price to get from a dealer on trade in.

Oh man, so $60K is all my fully-optioned car is worth now, AND on a private sale, if at all? Geez. I guess we thank Lexus for making so many and offering $10K discounts at some point. Mine was $80K, paid $76K, plus TTL, and tint, and some other crap. And only 1K miles. The good news is my brother wants exactly the Porsche I was looking for, and will stay in my house, so no need to buy one anymore. But my wife doesn't want to travel on the RC-F, so no sense on keeping it just to depreciate further. Will try to convince my wife to drive it to Austin (600 miles), just to make absolutely sure it's bad enough comfortwise to sell it. As soon as I'm absolutely sure of my next vehicle, will offer it for sale here before trading it in. And this time I'm not going to cap myself at the 100K mark, because I've lost half that just on 2 cars (GTR and this), so better spend 120 or 130 for the right one, and keep it for a while. Anyway, with the tax advantage, will probably waste my time trying to sell it here, but will give somebody a chance to buy mine for less than a dealer but in absolutely pristine condition and inside an insulated garage, with nobody beating the crap out of it, and not exposed to the elements for who knows how long. Plus it already has tinted windows, only car with Triton LED rear turn-signals, and other extras. Painful depreciation, but it is what it is.
