I am thinking about upgrading my 04 focus to an 07 focus.  My 04 focus was purchased on a 60 month financing plan.  So basically 36 months is all paid off for and there's still another 24 months to go in the payment plan.

My question is:  will i get more value out my car if i sell it privately (transfer over the payment plan to the new owner, so owner pays me current value + the remaing 24 months they need to pay to the dealership)

or

if i simply trade it in when i purchase a new 07 focus?

Neither, keep the car, and in 24 months when it's paid for use your new found extra cash to start doing the MODS you couldn't afford to do before...
