Trading in 2010 for 2011?? Opinions?
I currently have a 2010 black 2lt, but am thinking about trading it in for an '11 ss. I got the v6 for the gas milage (as i drive 60 miles to and from work each day), but now am moving and will be much closer to my new job (in germany). I looked at some 2011's the other day and really like the hud, and was surprised to see that they released they synergy in the ss (wish they would re-release the aqua blue, but...). Anyway, opinions? Would this be stupid to do?
Guess im looking for advice and opinions from ss owners and 2011 owners. |

All the reasons you stated to upgrade to the SS 2011 are the good reasons you should get the SS 2011.

I checked into trading my 2010 2LT RS A6 Sunroof/stripes with 19k miles The best I could get for a trade was $21k which is a $10K loss for having the car for 18 months. Decided to keep what I got.

I traded a 10' V6 for a 10' 2SS! January last year. I had a 2LT for about 2 months. Then I decided to go for the SS. I have put 14K on the SS, and don't regret the swap.

If you're gonna take the hit, I would just wait it out and get a 2012 or at least see what it has to offer and you may get a better deal on a 2011 when they're trying to get rid of it.

I;ve had my 2LT non-RS since November. I got it cuz it was a STEAL [4k miles; $22,5] and for the great mileage; I drive 4 hours round trip for work. I'm moving closer to work now and I'm thinking of upgrading, but I can't bring myself to take that hit. I checked online and KBB put the trade at 24,5. looks like I would come out 2k ahead... or at least break even. Thoughts anyone?! I'm like... completely just realizing this right now... uh... SS here I come?!

You're moving from Las Vegas to Germany?
Fuel prices are twice what they are here, but if you can afford to take a bath on the trade in go for it. You only live once. |
