That's pretty tough in Canada (side note, I thought you lived in NYC, are you in CGY now?). In the US Edmunds.com TMV calc for used cars is GREAT.

Here in Canada, I would go to toyota et al's site, put the car you're after into their BLACK BOOK trade in valuation and at least get an idea what they probably paid for the trade. Then add a few $K for reconditioning and profit and voilà, your offer.
