A3 2.0T trade in value??
Well guys, My A4 Avant SE S-Line is on the dock, and the A3 is getting traded in. I was wondering if I was getting a fair shake on the trade in value. Dealers make it so hard to tell what you're actually paying/getting.
The car is a 2006 2.0T MT Black/Black Leather, Sport interior, Bose, Open Sky, XM, Zenon, Cold weather. 16k miles. Any idea on a fair trade in?
Cheers,
Jordan

Re: Since trade-in value is dependent on the actual condition of the vehicle,
Mike,
I was hoping for some dealer employee insight. I know the dealer usually won't give the Edmunds number.
The condition is very good, with a few of the usual small parking dings/scratches. I think it would make it as a CPO car.

I would lookup wholesale pricing instead of edmunds for a trade-in...
A dealer will not give edmund pricing unless they are very generous...
As April stated a carmax eval would give a better idea on what to expect...

Re: A lot has to do with the demand for this type of car and how good the dealer is at
The above is true. I got $6000 more for my 06 S4 avant w/ 21k miles from my Audi dealer than CarMax offered. CarMax had a used A3 i was looking at, traded for an 08 at the dealer. Didn't get the "best" deal on the A3 i've heard of, $1000 off sticker pls they threw in Audicare.. But not bad and the trade in difference was HUGE.
Guess the Audi dealer thought they had a better market for the S4. Haven't been back there in a while but 60 days later when i did a oil change at 1000 miles they still had the car.
A3 is a lot less rare, Car Max said they only saw 7 s4 Avants (06) come up for auction tat year..that's what they based their offer on.
