Good deal but not exactly earth shattering. Now if it is a good move depends on what you are buying and what it cost a year ago compared to today. If it cost the same or less than it did then you made a good move. Others may not be so lucky (or smart) though.
You actually lost $1,350 on the private sale book value (be worth it not to have to deal with the lowballers believe me!)

Actually, after I got the initial appraisal from Carvana, I went to a dealership to price out a new car. I had them drive the FRS, and give me a trade in value. The offer was $14000. When I showed the sales person my offer from Carvana, he said "then sell it to Carvana - we can't touch that". So I did. I will be going back to that salesman and buying the car tomorrow. I will let you know what car I will be buying.
