I felt I ended up with a fair deal. Kbb was suggesting $16.5 but I think that was high. In my opinion they seem to lag the current market by 4 months or so.
The dealer then sold my old X to a local used Eurocar specialist. They have it on their lot for around $20k. They've had it now for a little over a month. They are located in the northeast.
That X was a great car. Very few issues during the 6 years I had it. I kept on top of the maintenance and was lucky to keep the cosmetics flawless.
Good luck with your X. My experience says great car. I'm looking forward to my next one in a few years.

I would just add that when it's time to put some $$ it is important to identify location / country where cost of living is different...just between Canada and US i see a 10% to 25% favourable to US for identical product ...
