Default Appraisal value for 06 is350

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone here happened to have access to an appraisal site called galves, or anything similar. The reason I ask is because I have a 06 is350, and the car is getting a bit old and I would like to put myself into something newer.

Before anyone comments with KBB or Edmunds, please keep in mind that I live in NY and they do not honor kbb nor edmunds, but rather galves, or so Ive been told. If anyone can give me a reputable appraisal it would be greatly appreciated.

The car is

2006, crystal white, is350
60k miles on the clock
All maintinence and recalls have been performed
No rust dings dents whatsoever,
Interior shows obvious signs of aging over the years but no scratches
Luxury package + sports,
Every option except ML Audio

Just wanted to get a ball park figure on what I should be expecting.

Edmunds says 12k trade in, 14k dealer
While KBB says 17k trade in and 21k dealer

You can obviously see the price difference so I'm not sure where my car stands

Thank you to any and all responses regarding my situation
Please include trade in, private party, and dealer retail

Being your an 06 it going be in the Edmunds ball park. No dealer gonna offer 21k when you can get 2011-13. Plus it be RWD is not a want in the N.E area.

Before I bought my ISF, my car was almost identical to your situation with the exception of colour. Mine was silver and I sold mine in Toronto for $15.5K cash a year ago.

I got mine 3 months ago for $15k with 78k miles. Mine is obsidian black with premium package and Navigation only. So in my area, I think you can get at least $17k easily. Not sure about over there tho. Good luck!

Up north, these things sell for less than say for example where I am...SC. $15-16k would be normal, where down here $16.5-17.5k could be possible. Right now, my '06 sport pkg'd IS350 w/NAV at 88k miles is worth $16.5k, according to KBB.

Payed $15.5k about 9 months ago for mine. Only one "package" (not the luxury) but came with $3.5k wheels/tires.

Thanks for all the responses, I may end up trying to sell it through the forums once I decide what I want to do.
