thanks for the replies. the guy wrote me another email saying he'll up the offer to 49k which is still way too low. I guess I wont be changing cars. oh well, still have a car I can't complain about.

but I know I can get at least 55-56k if I sell it privately, maybe even close to 60k. and I dont think its reasonable because they are giving me low figures because they want to make money off both my trade in and the new car. thats just greed. they could give me close to what they will get rid of my car for and still make good money on the new car.

I wouldn't do the trade IMO. Honestly, the Audi dealer by me has an S5 they are giving test drives in. It has around 3000 miles like yours. It is so hard to get an S5 right now, (9 month wait around here) they are still selling that car for list price even with all the miles on it. It is rediculous I know, but I guarantee they sell it. I would just sell it some what below list if it's still in good condition and all. There is such a market for that car right now, I think 44k-49k is easily achievable and surpassable if you ask me.
Good luck with the deal.

Dealers aren't budging on the IS-F right now, if your smart wait. Given what is going on in the economy, the price of the YEN V US$. you may be better off taking your time selling it private party. Dealers are having a tough time selling vehicles right now. The dealership near me still has the NM-IS-F, and has been sitting on the showroom floor for over a month. Their sales have been WAY down by comparison to last year.
Play it right, your the consumer, and your dollar can buy anything you want, personally I'd wait. THe US consumer is getting the shaft when we buy a japanese auto right now, as I have mentioned above. You'll be paying a premium for the car.
