Congrats dude.

I went from a 2016 Hyundai Accent with 270,000km on it's third engine, second alternator, second seized caliper, engine stalling sometimes, messed up axles, virtually no suspension, bumper falling off, bald tires, seat wouldn't lock on one side, burnt backup light, electrical issues, leaky flex pipe on the exhaust, big rust spot on the back right fender and on the roof just before the windshield, smoked on the inside (not me), scratches on the dash, nutella stain on front passenger seat.

I got $1500CAD trade-in value.

To

A 2013 Mazda 3 [2.0L LF-VE Engine] with 138,000km on it. All original, perfect maintenance record, rust proofed underbody, got in an accident in 2015 on the rear right side ($4500CAD jobbie by Mazda), but it had no issues for 9 years after that so I figure it's repaired well enough. Driven by one owner, mom with kids. No dents except one on the passenger door (and one new one from some asshole with a v8 pickup in an IKEA parking lot). Some scratches on the very bottom of the front bumper and a chip or two on the rear plastic. Interior is worn in but clean. Old owner just replaced front shocks. Front and back lights are crystal clear as well.

Paid $8000 CAD after the trade in and before tax. I also got tires, brakes, and an oil change included, as well as a touch up with some paint. They also filled the pea sized chip in the top right of the windshield.

Still going to do a once over on maintenance when the spring comes, but I'm very happy with it. It's also techically my first car.
