    No, the car is losing value not gaining it.

    Actually heres the breakdown ...

    year 1 20,000

    year 2 decreased 20% is 16,666

    year 3 decreased 20% is 13,888

    year 4 decreased 20% is 11,574

    year 5 decreased 20% is 9,645

    year 6 decreased 20% is 8,037

    so selling it for $4000 is a major loss on their end so they should NOT sell at that price.
