I was wondering the same thing But since the topic has now officially drifted to the Smart I just wanted to add that I love the Smart cuz finally there's a car on the road that's more wimpy than my Spyder

My lease is up in feb 09 & I'll have 60+ on it (v8) it will still be 25k miles under my lease . Maybe I should dump it for a used 08/09. I really don't want to buy anything new anymore . I'll have to check blue book when the time comes closer. Maybe by that time the gas will be back down to $1.00 per gallon.....

It seems like a great little car for someone living in the city or for hoping around the suburbs without having to make the sacrifices of riding a motorcycle. There is a reason why these cars have been all over the place in Europe the last several years.
Yeah I was thinking the same thing. Big SUV's are actually less safe than small cars as big SUV's tip over. I came accross a Hummer 2 that got into an accident with a big rig. Half the vehicle was gone. It is hard to stay fastened into your seatbelt when the side of vehicle is gone. Two dead.

I ride my motorcycles daily. You are going to die no matter what you ride. Might as while enjoy life while you are here/

Don't go by carmax. Use what the courts and dealerships use for determining vehicle value, KBB or NADA. The rest don't matter and are subject to fluctuations based on irrelevant data or the latest trends.

I've found that CarMax tends to be pretty fair. KBB is usually low on trade-ins, but Edmunds is high. Reality is somewhere between KBB and Edmunds.

The market is really screwed up right now because the hype has made the prices drop, but nobody is really sure how far. I'm sure that if you were to try to trade in today, each dealer you try to work with would give you a different trade-in value. It would become a matter of finding the dealer who's willing to give you the most for it.

Mine was fully loaded with leather nav etc. Needed new tires tho and had some damage to the pass front door.

I was content to get out what I owed. Values on the SUVs were dropping like a stone around here.
