    Hey guys. My neighbor has an excellent condition 2009 FJ with 70K miles. Dealer offered him 14K. What is the average price range that he could get for it by selling it himself? Thanks

    Checks local ads... I tried to buy a 14 w low miles a couple years ago and they were going for a similar price as sticker brand new. So I got a tundra instead :)
    So resale seems higher. Dont get taken

    Will do. He's in his 60's so I'll help him out. I can't beleive they only offered 14K. Hell they tried to give me 12K for my truck and I told him to get bent.

    Is it a manual transmission? I'd love to find one of those in good shape..

    Checking a nada guide for local to me trade in was 10k and clean retail was 14k. But check listings for more perspective. Perhaps dealer gave him a good price to move inventory knowing they can easily sell the fj too

    I did 4wd, 70k miles, 2007

    LED headlamps/fogs; interior footlamps.
    Edmunds with no options selected, Excellent condition (cuz 60yr olds usually keep 'em immaculate), says $17,381 for Private party sale, 12,900 wholesale, 20081 retail.

    So I'm gonna say that is a STEAL, better jump on it if you really want it.

    I'm not buying it. He asked me what he should sell it for.

    That's insanely low. Low mileage later model FJ's hold value VERY well. Private sale he could get significantly more. Dont know your area but around here FJ's with 150k miles sell for that much. Could prob get closer to 20k at least depending on options etc. KBB isn't that reliable for private sale of these cars because they're becoming more sought after.

    I have to say for an 09, 14k wasn't an insult to offer from the dealer. I'd say that's about on par really. Now when I went to trade my 2010 Tacoma an they offered me like 2 grand THAT was an insult..
