Kenetic Blue TL Type S 6mt, should I sell?

what do you think? Not many of these around. Has 135000km. Should I keep it or cash it in while the demand is hot?

Need more circumstances about your situation. Keep the car if you like the car.

It's a car, not a hot stock that's bunching panties on Wall Street. Keep it if you like it, it's been good to you and your financial situation warrants it.

So your only reason for selling it is because you think you can get a nice chunk of change? If you sell it, then what?

I guess what OP is asking is if he sells it now, he's assuming he won't take as big of a loss on the car in the potential years to come since these TL Type-S' are selling at pretty high prices especially in 6MT & KBP form.

If you feel like you need something a little newer go test drive some vehicles you have in mind then you could decide if you want to keep it or not. In the end you're never going to get the money back of what you paid for the car "X" amount of years ago.

The low mileage cars are the ones bringing in a good chunk of a change still. Nearing 90K miles wont bring much of a premium. Being 6mt and KBP will attract a more interest, but price wise don't expect to make a killing. Plus winter is around the corner which is never a great time to sell.If you like the car I say keep it, if you have the itch for something else then sell it. Simple as that.

Unless you have another car in mind, I don't see the point in selling it. It's a great car.

If you do insist on selling it, probably best to wait until next spring when you'll get more interest. Used car buying/selling season is pretty much over, especially in Montreal. You can use this time to research/test drive other cars that interest you, to see if it's really worth replacing your TL.

Good luck!

I just rolled 130K on my type s. I think it will make a good winter car and I will buy a 2 seater for the summer months. If you sell you have to buy something to replace it for less $ or pay more. I don't think you can find something for less $ that is as fun to drive.

keep IMO, great cars. New stuff is better but not by enough to warrant the cash outlay.
