Hello: I've found a buyer for my car, and decided I'd like a small wagon with a semblance of sport to keep me entertained. I've found a 05 Lexus IS-300 SportCross with all options except Navigation. Certified, with about 25K miles. What's fair price for this car? Area is Northern California This one may get away from me ... but am also wondering what these cars sell for in general ... they are priced pretty high (when you can find them).

Hi all, new to the forum. Trying to trade in my 2003 BMW 325XI for a 2008 Mazda5. Bimmer has 117,000 miles, dark blue, tan leather int., in pretty good shape overall. TMV says trade in value between 10-11K, how true is that in the real world? I've never traded in a vehicle before, how much can you haggle with a dealer on the trade in value? I still owe 13K, but having trouble finding buyers at that price. Thanks in advance for any guidance/advice.
