why wouldnt the person offering you 16, just go and buy a new one if its only a few k more?

EDIT: i see now you said USED 2007. either way, a car will depreciate far more than 2k in 3 years.
Right now I'm seeing used 2004 Mazda 3s for anywhere from $13,000 to $18,000 so I think in three years I should be able to sell a 4 year old car for $15 or 16,000
