FYI,
Nada, Edmunds, KBB, all these are based on industry generalities and (usually) high-balling since the used car market wouldn't be doing itself any favors by consistently appraising OVER what a consumer would consider the car to be worth. Notice how often you see dealers using NADA & KBB blue books on the cars in their lot, trying to convince you of a good deal. For the most part, I use them as a benchmark. I just sold a Range Rover that booked for $8000 for $4650...and that was my ONLY offer. Upgrading from a '96 SET makes me wonder how much you really LOVE your Saab (no stab intended--read on), because if you plan to do the same for your 9-5 a few years down the road, you fall into the ranking of a consumer who buys expensive, uses the car in the prime of its life, and than gets another new...that's why you'll probably get screwed on trade-in/sell-out almost every time...I only find this rule to not apply to Honda & Toyota b/c of their extremely inflated resale value (actual) in the consumer market...sorry this posting is so painfully long...;)
