I go by the kbb value, those seem to be pretty accurate. It's hard to tell if a car is in "excellent" or "good" shape though, and the difference is a few grand. I think I'm going to go down there and inspect the car a bit sometime soon, before somene else buys it of course. Hopefully they'll let me test drive it.

KBB is very high, that is why you see dealers use it when trying to sell cars to you and I making us think we are getting a fair deal. I think Edmunds is a good free site to get close to true value. Something is only worth what the general public is willing to pay, no matter what some book or guide says.

sounds quite fishy if you ask me.
looks alot like a jeep rubicon i saw online for an insane price like that, 10k miles or so 2006 model year and priced at 12k....found out it had a salvage title
so proceed carefully, sometimes things dont show up on carfax. my gf's car got hit last summer and it still hasnt showed up on carfax

When you see 1-2 year old base models and 03-04's in the mid 20's you know the seller has no clue to what the actual value of his car is.
i just baught my 2006 ppw 6spd touring w. 20k on the clock for 23k

http://www.cars.com/go/search/detail.jsp?paId=255471602
In doing a search for a 350z to buy, I came across this new listing.
About This 350Z
Mileage: 7,525
Body Style: Coupe
Exterior Color: Silver Alloy Metalli...
Interior Color: Carbon
Stock #: NP3224
VIN: JN1BZ34D37M502942
Engine: 3.5L V6
Transmission: MANUAL 6SPD
Doors: 2
Wheelbase: 104"
Get a CARFAX Record Check
Now, don't laugh, but I assume it might be a touring because one of the photos of the steering wheel shows 6 buttons, 3 on each side of the center. That is indicative of an enthusiast model or above, right?
for a price of 18,700, does that not seem too low?

It is true, sometimes you can capture great deals. My little sister just purchased a 2004 BMW 325I with 50,000 miles.
She paid 16,000 otd and suggested retail on kbb is 23,000. I would expect that price for other cars at this mileage, but its a BMW. Sometimes you just get lucky. All local owners and clean on carfax.
