     Jeesh! Even in California, that is  high! There was a (generally
     accepted as) much more desirable Syncro Westie in San Jose on the list
     yesterday:

     You can look up the current retail and wholesale used car values at:
     gopher://gopher.enews.com/11/showroom/edmunds.

     Check it out to get a feel for it, call your bank or credit union to
     find out what the local wholesale and retail values are, including the
     low mileage allowance, and at least try to hit a mark between the
     two...
