    You can trade almost any car in for another. Just don't expect the same value for the trade in as what you paid for it.

    Cars depreciate fairly quickly, so check on kelly blue book for your market value. From there it will give a price value for your car. Cal is right, dont expect anything like the original MSRP of the vehicle or what you paid.

    Don't worry, it's all standard depreciation now. You already took the biggest hit when you drove it off the lot.

    Got Gap insurance and a shady friend that can help your car meet with like an accident?

    ^^Lol at insurance fraud.

    He is right on the off the lot depreciation. True story, when my dad bought his truck his asked the dealer if he drove it off the lot went around the block came back and traded it how much would it be worth, dealer looked at him shrugged and said he could trade it for anything else minus 3k

    Car and Driver price seems high...that's about 2011 WRX prices, which have been quite impressive on brake hp numbers on mustang dynos so far. Must be a luxury model with radio and the works for ..... dot dot dot.

    28K seems too high IMO. I am thinking Genesis pricing.
