In general, domestics don't hold their value as well as imports but all new cars lose a lot of value as soon as they're driven off the lot. $7k is a little excessive but that really depends on the dealer where he traded it in. They probably gave him wholesale price since it wasn't a Pontiac dealer. In that case, they often turn around and just sell the car to a local Pontiac dealer instead of trying to sell it themselves.

Do you think that someone's going to buy a used car that's priced only a couple thousand less than the same new one? Not likely. That's another reason why it's always better to sell your car rather than trade it in.

For the Trans-Am, watch the TV Series when he hits the Turbo button, I'm serious when I say it shows 0 to 1000 mpg in 3 secs! Oh, and don't forget the Mechanic! She was one hot babe, both of them! I believe the changed her after a few seasons.

We have our second child coming and I'll need the space of a station wagon. Only difference is I'll be paying off the G and keeping it. I'm selling my wifes '98 Beetle and my old 4X4 Suburban to make room. I've read the Magnum does the 1/4 in the mid 13's , so that should be fun when the new baby is not in it.

Are you kidding me? If you don't have buyers remorse on that purchase you are nutz. A Pontiac? I would not own a Pontiac if it was given to me.
Have fun with it because after 7,000 miles that thing is going to drive like a POS. The rattles come at 5k and the engine should drop out around 10k.
Sorry to hear about your new purchase.
