99 Coupe $$$$$$$$$$$
i have a 99 coup 6 sp with 54K on it. It is excellant condition inside and out. Metallic Pewter, HUD, memory, dual climate, 2000 wheels and new tires . I bought the car with 48k and purchased an extended warranty. I am wanting to upgrade to an o4 coup or vert automatic. I live in houston and it's a weekend car not a daily driver. I'm 55 and would really like an automatic. I paid 24K for the car which i think now it might have been around 1k too much. I'm just wondering how much of a beating would i take by selling it so i could upgrade..

A friend of mine traded his 99 coupe loaded in great shade on Tuesday and got $23,000 for it on a new 07 coupe. I traded my 99 on a 03 and got $21,000. I would think you should at least try.

Last year I paid 19K for my 99 with 46K on it. I think you should try too---it's not unrealistic

wow...that is really great!! there is a dealership by me with a '06 for $38k, 6spd, black, coupe, 4k miles. If they would give me $22k for my immaculate 1999 6spd coupe w/ 40k miles, I would have a new car!!!!!!!

Not as bad as you might think....
I bought a '99 A$ for w/37K, all stock, HUD, full power, dual AC, tele wheel, needed almost nothing, for $21.5K 3 weeks ago. Asking price for this car was $23.9. You should be able to break $20K with the 54K miles selling it yourself, or trade it for more $ on paper.
