you have already taken the hit enjoy it. my 09 is at 35,000 and it great shape. if i tried to trade today with a low mileage z i bet it wouldn't bring more than an extra grand in trade in value... jmo

I agree on everything you said. I usually keep all my rides with low miles except for a daily beater. That has always worked well for me when it comes time to sell off a car. I have always sold/ priced my cars at or in the range of dealer retail than pricing for sale buy owner.

Example: I have a 2000 Prelude Vtech that has around 50700 miles on the car. I have 4 people interested in it right now. They are just waiting for me to say I am selling it. They alreay know the car will not be priced in the For sell by owner Edmonds online price range. Their is always a buyer willing to pay retail to an individual if the car is extra clean and low mile. Why let the dealer make the easy money on extra clean rides.
