CJF077 The Noble Leader Administrator 4,786 Member For: 22y 2m Gender: Male Location: Sydney Australia Posted 14/06/11 11:58 AM Share Posted 14/06/11 11:58 AM My accountant has been nagging me to get a new car seeing the FG F6 will be three years old in September this year.A few questions how much do you think I would get for the FG trade in? or private sale? Have seen them on Car Sales for high 48k - 54k.2008 FG F6 310 - Dash GreenCar tuned by Autotech @ around 307KW at the wheels.Growler Cold Air InductionGFB Blow Off Valve20" Foose Rims (Have the original 19" rims in the garage may well put them back on before sale).Full MTX Audio System all speakers replaced with MTX, 2 amps and 2 x 12" Subwoofers in custom enclosure in the boot.LeatherSunroofTinted Windows54,000kms.I was thing of maybe getting a new Ford Territory Titanium with all the bells and whistles.. keep that for a few years and maybe change back to a FPV when Ford bring out the Series II or III or new replacement.

Think also you might get bored with the Terry's power output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flukey Seriously Flukey Member Donating Members 4,354 Member For: 20y 8m 20d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 15/06/11 12:44 AM Share Posted 15/06/11 12:44 AM I wouldnt trade it, unless you need to make a loss on it for tax purposes but then again you need to know what the depeciated value is as well otherwise you might end up paying tax on the sale of it.I suspect Ford would not offer more than $40K at best, and using the Redbook guide possibly less.Redbook F6The options will add SFA from a trade perspective but would appeal to a private buyer.You need to factor in the color as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that the road you wanna take? New Terry would be nice and all with a turbo diesel but I think a Series II FG would be worth waiting for. Mmm GT.Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle!

I personally was disapointed with the new SZ, so I bought a Jeep.There are also better way to lose money than cars, although I do not think they are as fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
