You say there is 19K left on the loan, you could get 17K for it. So you would have to come up with $2000 just to say goodbye to the car and have nothing to show for the money you've spent other than being able to say you had it for X days.

How long have you had the car, and what did you pay out the door for it?

take that number, subtract 17000.

I'm sure that's more than $2000. Not only that, take that number, divide it by the number of months you've had the car, and see how much it has cost you per month. Perhaps it's different for you depending on how much tax you paid on the car, but I paid 14% tax, which I'll never get back.. plus freight.. plus other fees.

As it stands, if I sold my car for the Canadian MSRP, I'd have lost about $5000 CAD.

Yikes!
