The newest thing in Georgia, people selling their fairly new LEAF for more than they have in it to buy a brand new LEAF and take the government incentives a second time before Georgia cuts or eliminates the Georgia incentive.
You never know, the politicians in the state capital may be watching :lol: :lol:
Yep. But in this case even Black Book, which in my experience has been a much more accurate gauge of value than KBB or NADA, shows the trade in at a little over $18K and "Extra Clean Retail" at $22,225.00. Typically Black Book's "Trade In" value trends closer to the actual selling price here in Texas. OP isn't that far off in his asking price, maybe $1500 on the high side.GlennD said:The price is very location dependent. I would assume somewhere in America KBB prices apply but certainly not in Southern California. When I purchased my Mercedes B Class the dealer showed me Mannheim prices. KBB was around 19K but the auction prices were 13 to 15K. I got 15K because Mercedes was desperate to lease me a CARB car since my score was 835.
Good luck in your endiver.
I guess technically you sold it.2014GunMetalSL said:car has been sold, thanks!

It's nice driving a new car every year and not having to pay for it! Going to miss the Georgia tax credits.

But what you really did was trade it in.
A trade in was probably much better than $ available through selling.
Congratulations though
A brand new LEAF three years straight is pretty nice deal

They gave me 20k for my 2014 with 10,500miles, which was insanely generous. I think Nalley is close to hitting it's sales quota, which makes taking a loss on the trade of the 2014 a little easier. I'm thrilled to be driving a 2015 for close to nothing.
