so i was trying to think about pricing on some 2008's.....and i had a question.

hypothetically, how much would you be willing to pay to roll back your odomoter 12,000 miles, if at all?

$500, $1000, $1500?

just curious......

edit: i should prob clarify, ha. i was asking this because i'm deciding between an 08 with 40k miles and many others which are mostly around 55k. and was just trying to look at the difference in prices from another perspective....the average difference tends to be about 1400ish. mannheim auctions for week ending may 20th for an 08 with 40.5k miles is right around $36k

 

thats not illegal at all...

 

Not legal but done in my area for $500.

 

obviously! i was saying, hypothetically, what would people value 12k worth of mileage on their cars is all

 

ha wow, really? sketch

 

He is looking at buying a used F... he is asking if you had the identical 08 but with 40,000 miles or 55,000 miles, how much more would you pay for the one with 40,000 miles.. come on now

I paid way more than that for my 08 lol

 

Yes,after his edit.

OP,I'd go for the lower mileage one.

 

 

Ah, my bad. Wasnt looking at the time stamps lol. me->

 

lol, OP there are simpler ways to ask this question...

 

yeh you are right, apologies all for sounding shady! i prob should not have phrased the q like that. i honestly didn't even think it was possible to do such a thing in modern day cars with digital odometers.

but anyways, yeh i think lower miles is the way to go too, as long as the premium isn't thousands of $'s.

in any event, if all goes well i should hopefully be picking one up either friday or saturday next week!

CUtiger, maybe we can go for a cruise. i know a good loop south of atlanta with a couple nice turns, a couple open straights, and a short tunnel underneath the runway.....then if you want i can turn back your odometer, lulz

 

lol where did you find one at?

Im always up for a drive. I try to go with my BMW group friends up on the Suches Loop, one of them does it with his tesla sometimes.

 

sounds spicy man, even though i have no idea what the suches loop is! the one i found was in north carolina, near charlotte actually.
