Default Value of 01 GS 430?

Thinking of selling my wifes car. A 2001 GS 430 ,Silver, 17" wheels, Black interior, Spoiler. 3900 actual miles! No Nav / Lev. Car is as clean as new! Never smoked in, garage kept. Rubber floormats over stock Lexus mats from first day of ownership. No dings or scratches.

How much is the car worth?

I am thinking of giving her my GX 470 and driving my work truck ( Ford Lightning).

Way too many cars to wash.

I have way too many mods on the Lightning to sell it. Besides it is way too fun of a ride. It makes about 460 hp at the rear wheels and gets the same gas mileage as my GX 470. I also have a 2005 Honda 4 door V6 EX Navi Accord for running around. It is a pretty nice car for around $28,000 + out the door.

I would love to sell the GX, but I use it for going to Big Bear Lake. It works great for towing and is really good in the snow. The Lightning would get me killed in the snow!

The only reason that I would like to sell the GX is that I HATE driving SUVs. If you must have one, the Lexus is the only way to go! I had two Subs and a Denali, and all I can say is junk, junk and more junk!!! Subs work good for hauling mass amounts of kids, but driving them really sucks! The Denali was the worst driving vehicle that I have ever owned. At about 75 mph, it steered like a video game! Felt like it was just going to go one way or the other by itself.

So If I sell something it has to be the GS430. The damn thing just sits in the garage anyway.

The Accord is MY beater. The GS is my wifes car. The point is that the GS is never driven.
