I know its hard to get blue book value for a trade but seriously, lowballed almost 6k!? Has anybody else had experiences trading in their Z or does anybody know any dealers in NoVa. that actually give blue book value or close to? Thanks.

I find this extremely interesting. I'm thinking about looking for a used 2009 Z rather than buying new and I'm looking for base + sport + MT. I found 2 of them within a reasonable distance from me. One was yellow with 13,100 miles and the dealer was asking 30,600 for it and the lowest they would go is 30k even. Had several small chips on the hood and needed new tires. I pretty much laughed and walked away. Found the other one on the internet and it was silver with 11k miles. Didn't really inquire further but they wanted over 30k for that one too.
Is it just me or are those prices way too high? I could use VPP pricing and get a 2010 for that much.
Given the economy I would probably be willing to pay 25-26k for a used base + sport and if 21-22k is really what they are giving for trade, then 25-26 should more than reasonable to pay used.
