Default What's my car worth?

I know mods don't count for anything and I'm not expecting them to.

05 Silver GT Premium, Automatic, Power Drivers Seat, Shaker 500, 17" wheels. 75k miles

Has had body work on passenger side, front and rear bumpers. Currently has some chips and dings from DD.

Would like to just trade it in on a new 5.0. I'm dreaming, but I'd love to get 10k for it. If not, I may have to look into selling it locally.

On trade in i got 15k for mine, similiar options, but with mycolor (interior upgrade) i had a cracked windshield, still stock tires so those were pretty warn, and a slight but hardly noticeable damage on the rear driverside quaterpanel, had the dent popped out but it wasn't perfect. But i also only has 27,000 miles and a 2007. i'm sure you can get 10k for yours on a trade.. i'd say you should get 10k in trade and talk the dealership down to below invoice on the 2011. I saw my car parked out in their lot a couple of weeks ago.. those silly guys did a crappy job in filling in the rock chips on the hood, looked terrible. (if you got up close to look for it) from a distance it looked fine. I also gave them all of my stock parts and a bottle of touch up paint.

Thanks, I hope it works out that way.

I should have mentioned that I get Z-plan with Ford. There's a 2011 GT/CS MSRP $38.2G that would be $34.3G after the plan and there's an addition $1G they are taking off of 11's. Invoice on it is $35.5G

Think they'd sell it for less than the A/Z plan price?

I Would try to sell in privately, OP. Why throw away 2-4k trading it in? That's more money to put toward a 5.0.

I've never sold a car before and am honestly nervous about doing so.

you get quite a break on taxes if you trade so keep that in mind too.
