2009 was a fairly significant refresh for the car. Your car is 2 years newer but far more importantly, has 40k fewer miles. Your car still has some factory warranty left as well as 3 years/40k miles of powertrain warranty, whereas his has no warranty at all. That explains the difference.

Well, I was going based on the OP's blue book numbers.. mileage made the biggest difference I assume. The thing to remember with the 350's is you can throw the blue book numbers out the door when negotiating with the dealer. Dont let them low ball you. The 350's are not commonplace, and should command higher than normal values. If you trade, do a nationwide search for comparable 350's. Not alot of them out there, compared to others.

You can also go to Autotrader.com and see what others in your region are selling for. Autotrader is probably one of the biggest online venues for car selling.
Also deduct $ if you have any aftermarket add-ons. The majority of buyers are not modders or enthusiasts and will look at those things as a negative.

I have not listed it anywehere or tried getting quotes for trade in. I have been thinking about what is best for me right now and getting into a newer car might not be my best option at the moment. I would like to get into something newer before this car hits 80K so I have 8-10 months more to go. Thanks everyone for the feeback so far.

Update: I just listed on autotrader.com for $20,800. Car has not been driven much in the past year as I am only @ 77,000 miles. I am thinking of selling the exhaust, intake, and xm radio so I can possibly get a bit more cash or lower the asking price a bit.
