Also, KBB is a terrible source for estimating the worth of your car. Edmunds is more realistic. You also have to take the market into consideration. Sports cars/V6+ are going for way below KBB and even Edmunds because of low demand due to gas prices and everyone is buying 3 or 4 bangers instead.
Edmonds is a joke, I find they are way low. If you take the average of kbb, nada, and edmonds, that should be more realistic

EDIT: Just did an Edmonds "True Market Value" estimate for my 03 Cobra with 20k miles and I got a private party sale price of $12,457 and a dealer retail of $13,938. I sold it last week for $21,500. Its a joke and Edmonds, Kbb, and NADA were all at least 2k low on the value. So you really have to gauge the market and see what similar cars a selling for.
