what a document or database states an object may be worth, doesnt necesarrily reflect what the market will bear or what a dealer of the object will pay.....being a avid coin collector, we have what is called a grey sheet...which reflects the value of a coin, however any reputable dealer will probably only purchase that coin from you for 70-80% of that grey sheet value if you are lucky....certainly you may be able to sell the coin independently for more but that is seldom the case for an educated collector....
the same can be said for used car values, unless its a true collector car....which our solstice isnt....and probably never will be.......
and just for comparision....did a KBB for our car which is fully loaded less Onstar, but with Mitch's mileage......for our area code
Trade In Value:
Excellent
$19,350
Good
$18,260
Fair
$16,365
Private Party Sell:
Excellent
$21,610
Good
$20,400
Fair
$18,825
a dealership will never offer Excellent condition on any car, and we paid MSRP at $25,075 for our car......
