i have a 2000 honda prelude and am planing on trading it in for a 2003 s2000.
my lude has 22,000 miles on her and in mint condition literally not even funny.

i was wondering what kind of deal i should be expecting on my trade since its the same car name trade.

thanks

 

hehe 10 views and no post? hummm

 

Should be able to get $17K on the trade. Need another $19K (tax included) to bring the S2K home, assuming they sell it to you for MSRP.

 

naw i bet ya he wont get 17 and if he does get 17 they wont sell to him for MSRP they will give him some BS like "we cant sell u our car for low price nad buy urs for a high price" so u mgiht be better off sellin it privately
but good luck gettin ur 03 s2k antoerh s2k driver in the bay area

 

They gave me 17500 trade in on my '99 prelude SH with 22k on it - this was in march.

She was immaculate as well, and had a changer.

 

Your lucky I guess.....I waited over a year to get my S2000 as the local dealer low-balled me so much on the trade I considered never buying a Honda again.
(Same dealer I bought the Prelude from, had it exclusively serviced there because they said it would be a major point when I traded in, etc.....all BS)
Bought from another dealer and kept the Prelude for the wife, but it has tainted my Honda love.

 

17K .. no .. i was thinking to trade my 02 prelude for the S2K .. dealer only give like 15-16 .. i rather to sell on autotrader or look for some chinese local car dealers trade in ..

bring the S2K back home .. it's really NICE car ..

 

If you still have a loan outstanging on the prelude. Take the hit and trade it in. If you own it out right. Then try to sell it on your own or autotrader.

I have a 99 Type SH....trade in was at $16,800 as of March 2000. But I ended up selling it to a third party on autotrader.com for 17,300. But it took about 5 months. So, again if you are still paying on the car......you should trade it and take a hit. Instead of paying 5 more payments plus the headaches of scheduling for test drives.

 

how the hell can u trade an 02 in when the last year for prelude r 01???IM LOST

 

Very good point. It hadn't even crossed my mind until you said that.
