First off, I've been off this site for many months, still check in once and a while, but haven't been an active member really. Still, I'd appreciate some thoughts or advice on my question.
So, my 2010 Forte SX Sedan is in great shape, just rolled 20,000 kms (Canadian model) last week. I bought it last December 2009 and 2 weeks after I drove it off the lot I was rear-ended by a woman driving 60km/hr while sitting at a red light. The trunk, rear doors, gas tank, exhaust were all replaced along with numerous other parts. It was repaired by CarStar and only Kia parts were used. No problems with it at all over the past year.
My question is if anyone feels that I will get a good trade-in value for my car on a new 2011 Forte 5 SX with the Luxury package (nav, push button start and electronic mirror). I know that the cars are around $4500 difference in price brand new, but is it worth it to try and trade in mine for a new '11 Forte 5? I'd do it if my payments went up even $80-90 a month for 7 years.
What do you think? Am I pipe-dreaming or is this do-able?
Thanks,
Jibbs
