I’m about to sell this 2007 4cyl Camry to Carvana for $850. I have about a week before it needs to disappear.

The original wheels are in the back seat. (With doughnut in the middle of them)

The spare in the trunk matches the 18" wheels on the car. The original hubcaps are also in the trunk if you hate my wheel choice that much.

Front tires are in bad shape. Need replaced immediately. But I only want the $850 so...

Car is in Berkeley Springs WV.

The cars name is Charlene. Btw

Think it would make it to NC without blowing up?

That is a really low price for a Camry. What issues does it have? You could very likely make much more private party if you fielded some calls.

That was my thought too. That's a 1500 dollar car at least. Up here in salt land.

If it drives in this time of crazy resale value and has a name like “Camry,” it’s at least a 2.5k car I think. Even that would be pretty cheap.

There are lots of people who buy junk cars who would probably give more than $850 as that is at least double that in parts value. Carva nna’s low baller algorithm needs to take a hike.

For those interested, this is from a previous post:

“ The Camry needs tires (badly), shocks, struts, an alignment (badly) (West Virginia roads suck balls), a wheel bearing or two, and a couple other things that would exceed it’s value.”

My friend might be interested, think it would be up to 2 hours a day commuting 6 days a week in Michigan? He can work on it.

I think so. I just wouldn't trust the front tires. They bald

This is true. If someone lived local and didn't plan on too many highway miles. The car would be worth considering. If yunz gotta commute on the highway, it's probably not for yunz

I wouldn't recommend it for a commuter. If someone has a teen that just needs a run around it would fit that. Not much else

I appreciate your honesty! Good luck selling it!

It has never had shocks or struts replaced. It's a little worn out in that regard. I had a coil go bad last year. Replaced all plugs and coils and it was fixed. It's a worn out car, but runs very good.

You can't fail to get double that. $850 is criminal for a running Camry with some life left in it. List it for $1500 and it would probably be gone within the week easy.

I just don't have the time. I leave for SC in the morning and will only be back to pack up the u-haul and roll out. If someone was local they could get a nice deal on a Camry. Otherwise I just need to make it disappear.

Okay, that makes sense.

I’d call about one or two junk car people though. just tell them to beat the price for a running Camry and pick it up in the morning with cash.

Haha. That’s fair. Hope you get it sold. If it was just a little bit closer, I’d be all over it!

If I was close, I’d scoop it up. Sadly, I’m in Missouri
