Ok kids.. Serious questions.. What do you think my car is worth. Looking to trade it or sell it to get a SUV/Crossover in the next 2-3 months. Me and the wife (soon to be ex) are parting ways hence the need for a SUV/Crossover.

year: 2011
Trim level: PWP 6speed tech
Mileage: 22,xxx miles
Condition: Excellent.. Not a fucking scratch or dent.. Nano Clear bra.

Give me some reasonable numbers for both stock or as is modded.

^^ tell me about it. No point in having 4 cars if I were to buy a SUV/crossover at the moment. Soon to be ex already went ape shit and traded our 2011 MDX for a fucking Genensis 3.8 R-Spec 6-spd coupe. I was like WTF????? I lost almost $10k on the MDX!!!!

PyroDave

=( im sorry buddy. didn't know there was trouble in the home when i visited. break it to the kids yet?? take a look at what Mroto had his priced at and compare yours to his

PyroDave

and i wanted to share this, but felt wrong including it in the above post... hope it makes ya laugh ben

benben01

Thanks Dave! I can always use a laugh... Troubles been brewing for a while but I hoped she would figure shit out. However, I got the news yesterday which wasn't a surprise but nonetheless, no one can fully be prepared for the news. I am fine though. Can't say I didn't see it coming. All I can do now is make sure I have the kids and let Karma and God deal with her shit. So.. Looks like I will be getting another MDX again

apinwp09GBTSX

Damn now I feel like taking my post down---seems irrelevant now--SHIT JUST GOT REAL!!!, sorry to hear about the divorce, I work with people that have gotten divorce once or twice and I know all they talk about how worried it will affect their kids... Im glad your willing to fight to get your kids and not one of those dead bat Dads, Awesome!!!

....Good Luck with everything Bro

Dam... from penis drawings to divorce.....

I choose east coast! Melanie Iglesias

LOL YEAH sorry...i might just order a CF card to see if it fits now, LOL.

ssjoeboe9

I don't have any sad penis drawings... But I have this... Maybe you can erase her memory and get your car back.

TSXKid2010

And benben, sorry man :/
Sounds hella tough, but it's stupid she traded in the MDX and now you're getting another one...shoulda just traded in the TSX for it at that point. seems irrational. Hope you make it through fine, buddy, and no matter what you drive you're always welcome back here in the second gen TSX forums!

PyroDave

Unless you get a Camry...

ssjoeboe9

or you start wearing loafers and become a hipster like Dave...

TSXKid2010

Yes, that's right. A Camry, or even a Corolla.

ed_423

im all for west coast, but melanie is just way too hot.

ed_423

holy shit ben im so sorry man just like the old saying...if it has tits or wheels, i'll give you problems :/

good luck bro, i wish you the best of luck <3

Hmm.. let's try to compare with what I paid for mine used:

Mine: 2009
Yours: 2011

Mine: 48k miles
Yours: 22k miles

Mine: White 6spd tech
Yours: White 6spd tech

The asking price on mine was $26k. I talked it down to $23k out the door. So, they had to make a profit off me. They probably bought the car from the previous owner somewhere around the 20k mark I would assume.

So being that yours is newer, and less miles, I would say you should probably hope to get somewhere around 25k for it? Not really sure though I'm not an expert at this.

BUT -- beware. They will tell you that it's a 6 speed and therefore it won't sell too easily because peopole prefer automatics and they will try to lowball the price for you. Yet, when they sell it, they will market it at a higher price tag for being a rarity.

Just do the research. Go on autotrader, cars.com, etc and see what cars with similar specs are going for.

Good luck!

Keep your head up Benben

benben01

Thanks everyone for your support and advice on the car! I am over it and moving on with the kids. In the mean time, I may be able to keep the TSX as my Dad's 15 yr. old Outback shagg'n-wagon is starting to show signs of wear (175K) lol. Talked to my brother last night, he's willing to go 50/50 with me on a new MDX for pops and I can borrow it from him from time to time if I need it With the folks being 10 mins down the road, I will be using it quite a bit

PyroDave

just borrow Ceb's wagon when you need it! hahaha

compare the wagon VS the MDX, you'll be suprised how much you can actually fit in the wagon. my mom wanted the MDX, and 2 college kids means periodic moves from one living arangement to another. everyone agreed the wagon would work just fine, but the dealer was offering the MDX for only a lil more than the wagon. no deals on the wagon due to tsunami at the time, the lease came out to 450-500 a month. paid 599 a month for the MDX

benben01

You know who crazy the winter weather is around here. It's hit or miss. With the MDX I don't have to worry about major snow storms. Secondly, it gives pops a legit vehicle to pull his bass boat.

uhohkaitlina

It's so nice to do that for your dad! He's lucky to have such a great son.

Is this going to be a surprise? If so -- you should video tape his expression

benben01

We will try and surprise him. But pops is old school. Not one for extravagance.. We will probably get yelled at first for getting him a luxury suv vs. a base Highlander or Pilot which was what he was looking at.

uhohkaitlina

Please video it!

If he is like my dad, he may be embarassed that you got him such an expensive and high end car. However, he will quickly get over it the first time that he drives it!

Please video tape! Lol

Mr. NC

Thank you baby jesus you didn't actually make a thread outta this.

How bout clear plate cover? I didn't know license plate frames required this much thought TBH lol

ed_423

^ LOL you know me. i dont wanna get a illest one or a simply clean one and change my mind.

mrstak

iTrader: (1)

it's okay if you change your mind for these. they're like 15-20 bucks max for each plate...not like a grand per wheel change. hell, just buy a bunch of them and change it to your hearts desire. hahah

steam ship joe, have you been blown away by all the hurricanes and tornaders? more importantly is the tsx safe?

TSXKid2010

Hey ed, I'll buy you this license plate frame if you rock it
