The KBB site is WAY OFF most of the time.  Just thank the Audi gods that
nobody uses KBB numbers for sales tax or excise tax. 

Edmunds online comes closest to the full NADA and Galves books (ones that
come out every week.)   Edmunds will even print out a nice window sticker
listing the engine, options etc. Here are the Edmunds numbers for the
same 1993 with the same mileage etc.: 

Trade-in $11,802
Private Party $12,885
Dealer Retail $14,689


Just for the heck of it I checked my 1990 V8Q on KBB:
Trade-In Value $7,025     
Retail Value  $11,085 

Wow, not bad, figuring I paid $15K for the car 6 years ago.  First $10K
takes it, as I know where I can immediatly go buy a 5 spd. for 5
Franklins more.


On Edmunds my car came up with (even adds for the pearl paint):
Trade-in $5,991 
Private Party $6,773 
Dealer Retail $8,173 

Any lister can tell you which are the real world numbers here, and which
site is more likely sponsored heavily by dealers.
