Has anyone sold their NX due to the high demand? I sold our '18 Accord and got into a 2020 UX off lease for not a lot of money. There was a $9k difference from what Carmax paid me to the trade in valuation! Our 15 NX is a base model with nothing extra except for the aftermarket Carplay (Grom). They are offering me 21K and I am torn as it's a great opportunity. Thing is I want the NX 450+ PHEV which won't be available for some time and I might have to pass...

 

The shortage works well on the sell end and then the give back on the buy end. Great if you're getting rid of a car and not looking to replace it.

 

I was just able to sell my 2017 UL ES to Carvana for $5000 more than what Carvana (and others) offered me just a couple of months ago, but the ES was a car that I'm not replacing. If I was planning on replacing it, I'm sure that, in today's market, I'd be giving back the windfall that came with selling the ES when I bought something else.

Also, with regard to getting an NX plug-in hybrid, good luck. The NX plug in hybrid will share components with the RAV4 plug-in hybrid. The RAV4 plug-in hybrid has been almost impossible to find, and those who are able to find one are not getting discounts from MSRP. Instead, they are often paying $10,000 or more over MSRP. Historically, an NX has had an MSRP of around $10,000 higher than that of a similarly-equipped RAV4. I suspect that the same will be true for the NX plug-in hybrid. If that is the case, the MSRP for a well-equipped NX plug-in hybrid will be around $60,000, and they will be hard to find for a good while. That will likely result in people paying as much as $70,000 for one.

 

If you do pull the trigger and would like to sell the Grom before sell/trade-in, PM me. I need a car and no car payments so my NX is here to stay lol
