I'm not sure why you say that. I bought a 2019 GT for $36,000 in May of 2020 and sold it to Vroom for $41,500 in June of 2021.You’ll never get what it’s worth on those sites. They have to make a profit after all. Private sales are always the best.
I sold my 2019 GT to Vroom then bought a used car. Some models have not seen huge increases like the Mustang or Tacoma have. You just have to understand the demand.So here's a question for those who are selling to a place like Carvana, Vroom, trading in - or even private party...
Aside from just banking the $$$ on the sale - if you're out looking for another vehicle, are you REALLY getting any type of deal that was not break even - or where you're really getting a slamming deal that made selling your car so great?
I'm not seeing the benefit of selling and now being stuck paying more for a new car where the prices are higher than normal OR even buying a used car where the prices are in some instances just as high as a new car.
Its not a Mustang, but last year we bought an Escape with 30k miles on it for $15k. We just sold it to Vroom with 50k miles for $16.5k. We have four drivers and had four cars, but we can mange with three for awhile. When prices are a bit better, whether that be in a few months or a year or more, we plan on buying either a new Escape or possibly a Stinger GT2. If you can wait to purchase a new car, I definitely think it is worth it to sell now.So here's a question for those who are selling to a place like Carvana, Vroom, trading in - or even private party...

Just did a valuation of mine on Vroom. Sticker price on my 2020 Cali Special was $50K. My current offer on Vroom is 39,700. I could sell it privately right now for 2-3K more than that.I'm not sure why you say that. I bought a 2019 GT for $36,000 in May of 2020 and sold it to Vroom for $41,500 in June of 2021.
The price was already higher on any Gen3 Coyote over my Gen2 2017. The fact that I can pay well over 80% of the car off from the start was the reason I upgraded to a Mach 1. That and our days are limited on getting a manual transmission on a V8. Everything about this car is an upgrade from what I had.So here's a question for those who are selling to a place like Carvana, Vroom, trading in - or even private party...

Yeah, I think Vroom figured out they were giving too much. The price on my car dropped to $36,500 before they sold it.Just did a valuation of mine on Vroom.

you only need $1000 I think, if that much. If you order a M1+HP you won't see it till spring 2022 anyway so have 6 months to find and count your pennies.Had I the disposable income on hand right now to put down an order for a GT Prem or even a Mach 1,
That so? I've never ordered a car, (of course,) so I'm a bit unfamiliar with the process. I figured financing and such would be discussed at the time of order, down payment and all. Or does that start once delivered?you only need $1000 I think, if that much. If you order a M1+HP you won't see it till spring 2022 anyway so have 6 months to find and count your pennies.
you set PRICE at time of order, with an asterisk that the greater of any factory incentives (today vs delivery) apply. Some dealers want "earnest money" (typically $1000 or so refundable deposit) on an order, some don't.I figured financing and such would be discussed at the time of order, down payment and all.

Ahaaa, that makes sense. Well, cool! I'll factor that in.you set PRICE at time of order, with an asterisk that the greater of any factory incentives (today vs delivery) apply. Some dealers want "earnest money" (typically $1000 or so refundable deposit) on an order, some don't.
