Price out what a new one would cost right now, same configuration, after rebates, after negotiations with dealer, etc., then knock off 25%.Just a WAG really, but depreciation is steepest in the first years. Ultimately depends whether or not the potential buyer really wants YOUR car.

The price a car will bring will vary on your local market. A local Pontiac dealer in Marion, IL just sold a white '09 GT with 14K miles and it was priced at $16,595, which I thought was a pretty decent price. I looked on AutoTrader.com and there are many '09 GTs with anywhere from 5K to 20K miles priced between $16,000 and $18,000.Here are a couple examples: http://www.autotrader.com/ac-s...CHURE http://www.autotrader.com/ac-s...CHUREI hope you find this information helpful.Take care,PlatinumVibe08

carmax.com provides an insight as to what their "no haggle" prices are for various make, model, mileage scenarios all across the U.S. I used that information when I sold my 2004 T&C in August 2007, and also when I recently sold my 2003 Vibe.I suspect you could buy a new '09 Vibe GT today for $3,000 off MSRP. 14,000 miles is 40% of the warranty and also about the same % on tire and brake wear. I suspect a base would return a higher % of msrp than a GT. I agree that a lot depends on the buyer.
