I owe a bit less than that, so I would get a decent check after paying off the loan.

The good news is if the car is still under warranty they do not have to take it for a test drive. They just need to look it over a bit to appraise it.
$22-24k is about what I would expect to get...I've never seen a dealership appraised a vehicle at $25,995 before, but it may be different in smaller cities..I'm in Houston, and these cars will sell, and dealerships around here are aggressive in their bids...but these vehicles are not your everyday runabout cars, so they are not in high demand right now. Eventhough Japan is hurting in their production, the 370Z is not a high demand vehicle...

It seemed like they really wanted my car for some reason. They said the quote is good for 7 days but I told them I probably would not go for it. When they brought over the written quote they 'manager' showed up with the salesman that I spoke with earlier. They wanted to try once more to go for the deal since the value of the car does not go up and of course the offer later down the road would not go up either.
