Probably around 6-8G's depending on interior and exterior condition. 98's are a dime a dozen now and they are only getting cheaper.

I think 7k. I just bought a 98 GS3 and during my search it was hard to find one with that low miles under 8500. I found some cheaper than 6k but they all had 170k+. My $.02 is that their prices may start going up a little just because VIP style cars are becoming more popular.

exactly, but what im tryna figure out is how much should a used dealership sell it for. in "good" condition...

KBB is only showing private party. I want to show the sales man how much KBB is showing its worth as. He probably may say " but you cant compare that, thats private party sales."

just tryna figure how much a Dealership should sell it for.
