Mike, your Blue book doesn't buy cars either. Simply a guide to go by. however is not as current/accurate as Galves Auction pricing which is published every other week, similar to Manheim.com. Heck, check your local auction listings. KBB is several months behind. Also, a dealer might show the buyer a trade value, but internally have a lower ACV (actual cash value). With so many lease returns to go through gM smart buy and outside auction sources why would a dealer honestly give someone more than their car is truly worth. Agree, a low mileage Saab is worth more, but why buy a used 02 for 25k when I can buy the same low mileage 04 for 28K. Maybe wait a few months and the 05 will sell for 33K. I realize my Saab knowledge is not as deep as yours, however I have been doing fine as a finance manager in a dealership that sells over 500 cars a month.
