I went to kbb.com and the private party book value on that car with 37k is only $15,965. Trade-in is $12,995, Dealer Sale is $19,185.
It has been my experience lately that the used car market is flooded right now and things are selling 10-20% less than private party value. 20% or more off the dealer sale price of the car.
Given this market and the number of great cars available if you are willing to spend 15K, I would expect that car should end up selling for no more than $14,500.
By the way I would think a private sale from another Saabnet owner is much better than Corporate Car. People tend to beat on our company cars a lot more than their own personal cars.
Offer them $14,000 and be prepared to walk.
I also just saw a 2001 9-3Se in the saabnet classifieds in the Westchester NY area with 39K selling for $13,750. (And they may even take less)
There are deals out there, but the one the CT company is offering isn't much of one in my oppinion.
Good Luck.
PS. I just bought a 1999 9-3SE 3 months ago, absolutely love it. It had 48k and I paid $8000. In one year of driving that CPO car will have 48k on it and someone will have paid $10,000 more than I did.
