Price For 1998 Legacy Outback Wagon?

As an alternate suggestion that worked REALLY well for me,

If you (or a friend) is a member of AAA, get onto their website, look at used car prices, and they will give you (I believe) three. One is the trade-in price, one is the outright sale price, and the third would be some sort of average. They will ask you questions about condition, mileage, tire condition, equipment, etc., before they compute a price.

I tried this with the two used cars i recently sold to buy my Subie and I asked and got exactly the correct price each time. (yeah, I had folks who tried hard to bargain me down, but the prices were good ones, and I felt like I'd gotten a fair price for both.) So get the prices and if it is a favored son, I'd give him the trade-in price. That seems to be about $1,000 below the retail price. I believe they stated the difference was for make-ready and sales expense, plus a little profit on the deal for the dealer.

Without considering that you're selling to a family member, I'd say $8,000 is a fair price, give or take $500 or so. If you sell it to a family member, I'd say even less, but that's a touchy one.
