Dealers looking for economy cars
I just got a flyer from my local Ford dealer and they will give me "full market value" towards a trade.
It said that the market is running short on cars like my ZX2/SR.
**** V.
Ps: curious as to what is the "full market value ".

Re: Dealers looking for economy cars
That's interesting Richard.
Unfortunately eight year old Ford Escorts aren't worth much. And used economy car buyers don't really care [or even know] of what an S/R is. Keep that baby!
Now with a Honda or Toyota, then you're talking some good resale value.

Re: Dealers looking for economy cars
That's rather diparaging.
NADA book value says $4500
Anyway, I have no intention of getting rid of my SR since it is one of 2000 and one of 500 red ones.
I just thought the flyer was interesting and giving an idea of the way the car business is going.

Re: Dealers looking for economy cars
The dealer is looking to sell new cars, not buy used ones. Don't think so? Ask how much of that "full market value towards a trade" they'll offer if you DON'T trade, but offer to sell it it to them outright.

Re: Dealers looking for economy cars
Oh sure. I just thought it was intersting that they are looking for economy cars to be traded in since they are running out of them due to the demand.
