That car listed in the paper at $7K? That's the asking price. It's the list price. That is definitely NOT what the car will sell for. As noted, the market for used cars is getting smaller and smaller, since in many cases buying new is a much more attractive proposition.
Hey it's all a numbers game, just roll with it. You will rarely (if ever) outsmart a dealer, that's how they stay in business. It's like a casino, do you really think if everyone was winning all the time they could keep the doors open?
