Queen of the Road: Hi there! Okay, let’s see what we’ve got here.
For a 2006 Mercedes-Benz C280 with 26,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $15,600 (being in above average condition) to $14,200 (being in average condition) and $12,800 (being in below average condition). A dealership will usually aim to sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $14,300 to $17,300. A private seller will usually aim to sell it for 5%-10%.
For a 2003 Acura 3.2CL with no navigation with 75000 miles, wholesale prices range from $6,700 (being in above average condition) to $5,400 (being in average condition) and $4,200 (being in below average condition). A dealership’s estimated retail prices could range from $5,000 to $7,700.
For a 2006 Infiniti G35 with 36,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $18,300 (being in above average condition) to $16,900 (being in average condition) and $15,500 (being in below average condition). A dealership will usually aim to sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $17,300 to $20,300. A private seller will usually aim to sell it for 5%-10%.
