Default Which is more accurate, KBB or Edmunds?

I'm looking to find the trade-in value on a 2002 S4 sedan, and there's a $2200 difference between the two with the same options/condition adjustment ($30,900 for edmunds, $33,100 for KBB). Does anyone know which is more representative of the market for a completely stock S4, or which the dealers tend to use to calculate trade-in?

Default In my past experience, KBB is inflated (unrealistic)...

however in your particular case, it actually seems about right (depending on how many miles you have on the car). I would go with the higher price...S4 Avants in pristine condition are a rare find. If you have time to find the right buyer, you'll get $33K for it.

Thanks. NADA has nothing for 2002 S4, but 2001 had info.

Default Well, it's a sedan (not mine) but has VERY little mileage...

So maybe the good price still applies?

Hmm ... $31,500 trade in -- I guess that seems about right.
