Help with offer...please
I have a 2017 GS, 3LT, M7 with 1000 miles on the odo. It’s white with spice red interior. MSRP was just over $82K. Car is perfect.
Considering trading on a new 2019 GS, 2LT, auto. MSRP is $75,250.
Whats a reasonable price difference? My car plus how much cash? I have an amount in mind but wanted to see other opinions. Maybe even a dealer could weigh in with a similar deal they have???

On a good day, your car plus $12K plus tax, tags and dealer fees. Anything above your car plus $15 K and IMHO you're getting screwed.
This is based on current discounting of at least 10%, assumes both are coupes.

Thanks for the feedback. Reason I’m considering trading is couple reasons. My car is white and the ‘19 is orange, which I really like. So why did I buy white in the first place? Got an excellent deal and hadn’t seen the orange. Other reason is cause it’s two years newer. Don’t really care about auto vs manual. I’ve driven both for years and at this point in my life don’t mind either.
Dont need to trade just kicking it around. I change vehicles often, very often.
That's kinda what I was thinkin, or at least hoping. My car and $6000. Which means of course the dealer will want my car and $10,000-$12,000. That’s how it always works.

I think you are looking at $10K or so difference. Could be totally wrong on that though.

Post a few good photos here, you may get considerable interest with the spice interior. Spice interior cars typically came with unique wheels.
Also post a pic of the window sticker if you have it. It sounds like a very desirable car.

True, except Corvette started ^^^^ making the Sebring Orange for 2018.
...He's not the first existing C7 owner on C7 forum to ditch the old C7, and go for the Sebring Orange.

I have an almost identical Grand Sport to yours and I am in the process of trading it in on a new Z06/Z07. The dealer gave me $54K on the trade-in. According to Kelly Blue Book the trade in value is between $54K to $58K. I got $10K off MSRP on the new car.

Ya just wanted to get some objective input. I’ll probably keep my ‘17. Maybe the C8 will come in orange. Just FYI KBB trade in value on my car is $57k - $59k. That’s optimistic (aka wrong). Probably closer to $50k.
