2008 GMC Acadia

GMC Acadia (2008)
for sale

Price: US $9,000.00

Description:

Up for sale is one well maintained 2008 GMC Acadia SLT with 3rd row seating (7 seat capacity) and many amenities as listed. The car is in very good condition with some minor chips, scratches and door dings as would be expected for the year and mileage. The exterior of the car is free of any significant damage beyond normal wear and tear as described. We have maintained this vehicle well as our daily driver for many years. There is a small piece missing from the bottom corner of the driver's side mirror as shown in the last 2 pictures. The interior of this car is in very good condition with all power features working as they should to include the DVD player, CD, air conditioning, and other. The leather seats have been meticulously maintained and regularly cleaned/treated with leather conditioner, and are without any tears or cracks. The tires are in good condition, but will need to be replaced within the next 5-10K miles depending on weather conditions and/or personal preference. NC requires an annual inspection that includes minimum tire tread depth with this SUV passing all parts of the inspection very recently in late July, 2015 when we renewed our tags. So the tires aren’t bald by any means, but will probably need replacing in the not too distant future. Tire size all around is 255/60R19. Discount Tire recently quoted me a price of $640 out the door for a new set of 4 tires with a 75k mile tread life warranty.
We are selling this vehicle as we rarely need the available seating capacity for 7 and have already purchased another replacement car. I have owned many cars, trucks, and SUVs, but nothing I have owned near the size and capacity of this Acadia has come close in terms of fuel mileage. This large SUV usually gets an amazing 23-24mpg out on the open road. Even on the mountainous 1k mile round trip drive that we make to Ohio a half dozen times per year this SUV will get nearly 22mpg with our family of 4 in tow. In addition to being our daily driver for several years we have taken this Acadia from our home in NC to Florida, Ohio, and other locations on dozens of excursions. It has been incredibly reliable and has never broken down on us (I attribute this to how well it has been intentionally and preventatively maintained).
Kelly Blue Book valuation based on just “good” condition for this 2008 GMC Acadia SLT with the present 120k mileage and all options would suggest a fair purchase price of $13, 522. KBB also similarly sets the suggested private party value based on just “good” condition as $10, 930. Based on year and mileage this Acadia is in better than “good” condition in my opinion, though a picture of the KBB values for these same “good” suggested values are included for reference. This auction will include an aggressively priced buy it now option of $10, 500 that will disappear once an opening or starting bid has been made.
I have included many pictures of the exterior, interior, and engine bay. This has been a well maintained and cared for SUV. The front brakes are newer and were replaced within the last 15k miles. A full synthetic oil and filter change will be completed and included with the purchase of this Acadia. The oil service isn’t technically due and presently has 15% remaining life per the onboard computer display, though I was going to perform the oil and filter change next week anyway. The exterior paint is rich, shiny, and quite simply a great color. My wife gets complements on how sleek and beautiful this SUV is quite routinely. There are some small imperfections here and there from rock chips and door dings as shared above, but is again in really good condition overall taking into account the year. During the time we have owned this SUV we have always parked it in our garage.
Please feel free to ask any questions and please bid with the intention to buy this SUV.
