Should be pretty easy to sell it privatly... Throw it up on autotrader.com and craigslist. You should be able to easily get between 9 and 10k private party.

Ya they quoted me 6k on my car back when it only had 38k miles on it a couple years ago. I was like HAH laters.... Like others sujested, sell it privat listing because the dealerships will rape you for it.

do you guys think having front and rear bumper damage will lower the value significantly ?
