Best way to sell my non-mustachian car?
« on: January 30, 2015, 04:56:35 PM »
6 months ago, my accounts were swelling so I decided to buy a used $23,000 2013 Plug In Prius, mostly for the coolness factor of its 10 mile trips that use zero gas. Unfortunately, nobody was around to punch me in the face and make me realize that the financing/insurance/depreciation would easily destroy any gas savings from the upgrade.

I'm already in the process of buying a beautiful used Prius for about $8k, but after that getting rid of this money sucking demon is a top priority. Any recommended sites/services for getting a decent price for with minimal effort?

Thanks! =D

Webuyanycar.com gives pretty good prices on used cars--much better than dealerships, maybe not quite as much as if you sold it yourself. We used it for a car that we owed money on.

Sold mine to CarMax. If you have a note on the car, this by far the fastest, easiest way to get rid of the car for the best price. 

You can get more for selling it private party, but the pay off, title transfer, etc will be a pita. 

Also if you are in LA or SF. http://driveshift.com/sf/cars 

I still went with CarMax

 

Wow, a phone plan for fifteen bucks!
