Selling your car? KSL Cars users’ returns are as good as any around

When selling your vehicle, you want to make sure you get a competitive price for it. It’s your baby, after all. And even though potential buyers might not have the same sentimental value for your beloved “F-150 Cent” or “Judas Prius,” you should still get a  fair financial value in return. Users on KSL Cars can be well assured that their vehicles are selling for an honest price. Recent internal data showed that the price of vehicles listed on KSL Cars was well in line with the national average car price in 2023. So when you sell with KSL Cars, you’ll not only get an easy and efficient user experience and a network of trusted local buyers, but you’ll also be letting “Lauri Car-kanen” go for the proper price.

Keeping up with a changing market

It’s no secret that average used car prices have fluctuated in recent years. One day you’re better off hanging onto your car, the next you’d be foolish not to sell. And when you factor in the average price of that new vehicle you’ve got your eyes on, it gets even more complicated. 

It can all be a bit of a headache to keep track of, but when you sell on KSL Cars, there are no extra wrinkles. Between 2020-2024, KSL Cars’ average listing price compares pretty equally with the national Consumer Price Index for used vehicles. While KSL Cars hasn’t been immune to the fluctuations in the market, our users are getting the same returns as other sales platforms.

What does that mean for you as a private seller? You won’t need to sell below market value to compete with other cars on the site. Our vehicles’ prices match well with the national market, and yours can too. You’re free to drop the price if you want to sell quickly, but data suggests that our average user doesn’t need to in order to make a successful sale.

And if you’re buying a used car, you’ll have the comfort of knowing that most vehicles on KSL Cars are set at a fair price. You’ll have to judge each deal yourself, of course, but the prices you see for a particular year, make and model usually follow market trends to a T-top.

So sellers are letting their cars go for a solid price, and buyers are getting a fair deal. Seems like an open and shut case, but there’s one thing left to do — hop on KSL Cars to create a listing or start browsing for your next ride.
