I currently own a 2009 370Z Touring with 33,000 miles. I've greatly enjoyed driving my Z but I believe its time to switch to a vehicle with more mpg, seating room and that's safer to drive in inclement weather. I'm trying to decide what I should do with regards to trading in my Z. Your advice is greatly appreciated.

Currently Owe: $26,000
KBB Good Trade In: $23,803
Dealer Trade In: $22,000
Warranty Refund: $1,000
Total Trade In: $23,000

So I would be taking a $3,000 hit to walk away and purchase another vehicle of my choice.

I'm curious if I would be better off waiting until June to trade in my Z. The vehicle would have approximately 42,000 miles then but my loan would be down to $24,000. I'm assuming demand (and perhaps trade in) goes up in the summer for Z's? I live on the East Coast (VA).

Thanks all.
