Are these prices typical? The 2010, for instance seems high to me. What with some dealers trying to sell 2013's for several thousand dollars off, what do you think?

RE: 2010 RTS: I so wish. I just re-visited kbb and saw $18,135 for the RTS and $18,455 for the RTS premier edition--which I have. These are all for SE5. The SM5 should be about $1,500 LESS. Trade in is running ballpark $14,000. Forget the accessories

Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.
June 2013, I paid $16.5K for a RT-S fully loaded used with 450 miles on it and an extended warranty! Basically it was new.
I shopped for used for about 2 months to find that deal on craigslist.
Those prices are still high in my opinion. Sorry but it's the truth. It's all about finding a motivated seller. It use to be a sellers market but since mid last year that flipped. My opinion....
Now ready for this! How about a trade in value on a 2010 RT-S fully loaded with less than 12K miles, below $10K?
That is someone I know that did a trade in on a 2014 and that's all he got!
You can ask say $18K for a 2012 but doesn't mean you will get it... 2013 believe it or not, might be worse if the buyer does their research.....
There is the truth of the matter.
FYI LTD owners will even be worse! The premium paid for a Limited won't hold up on the used market. Heck the premium paid for a LTD new, is way over priced for what you get. In my opinion. Don't expect that to hold up in the used market.
Even for the price I paid for my 2011 used, I would not take $10K for a trade in on a 2014 at $28K.
That would mean I would pay MORE than I paid for the price of admission less than 1 year ago....
My 2011 is worth more to me than that and no way in hell would I even sell it for less than I paid for it at this time!
Thus she's a keeper
Simple truth is.... TODAY it's a buyers market and sorry but that's the story from my perspective having been there...
For those asking those prices.... I wish them luck but remember..."that's what they are asking.. It does mean what they will get!"

Wow! The part about $10K for a 2010 with less than 12K miles--that is a slick application of the six foot long golden shaft for sure. The person really wanted the 2014 bad in this case. I bet the dealer is going to make a minimum $4K profit on the trades resale--or better.

Bob,you know my old song and dance. My better (smarter) half still think's it's too much money for toy. I've contemplated going back to work part time. Unfortunately, I have a health issue that may hold me back. I have spinal stenosis. It's pretty painful, but I'm dealing with it. I was mildly belly achin' today about still wanting a Spyder. The answer was still the same. LOL Oh well, I still love this forum. A 2015 black ST- SE5 would be nice.

I was at the Apache Motorcycle in Mesa yesterday and was told trade-in for my 2013 RT-S was 15k for a new 2014 RT-S.
I certainly hope so or the new buyer will have plenty of stories to tell too!
Oh and is that an RT-S or an RT you made into a RT-S
Sorry I had to go there since your so "documented" here on this site

That's the RIGHT idea.... My .000002 cents
I am riding mine like she is my first love! I have NO desire to trade her in for a "newer model".
She and I are getting "comfortable" with each other....
At my age, you learn to love a woman in a different way than you did in your 20's, 30's etc......
OK... Maybe I am going somewhere else...
Been married 30 years and take it from there...
Maybe you will get what I mean?
But it's relative
Enjoy what you have! The grass is not always greener on the other side..... A new woman always comes with new issues
Some you may not want to deal with at "your time in "your" life".
I bet your Spyder is all you need so enjoy her! Don't "dream" about what could have been! Make today count!
Sorry, I guess I digressed a little

This past November the local dealer offered me a new, out of the crate, 2013 RT SE5 for $17,700 which figured in the current $2000 rebate. Instead in November I bought a 2013 RT SE5 for $14,000 plus $971 for shipping. It had 615 miles on it. The Wisconsin seller wanted to move it ASAP. My nephew bought a 2010 RT Premier last August for $17,000. It had about 2500 miles on it. This is in Idaho.
