Sorry to hear you want to let it go. :( They might take you, low ball you on a trade in. Just wanted to let you know.

Cars.com and calling around to get a quote on trade in is a start. KBB seems to be close to what you get, but i have seen it all over the board. Hard to judge.

You'll most likely get more for it if you sell it to someone outside of the dealer. Dealers will always give you less than what it's worth as they mark it up to make money off of it. If you don't really care about that then the dealer is an easy way to go. Otherwise, if you do a search around craigs list, cars.com, etc. and see what they're going for in your condition you can get a good idea of what you could sell it for to an individual buyer. KBB is just a base to start at, but you could most likely get more it just depends on what they're going for in your area. Good luck! I drove a newish '14 IS350 F Sport the other weekend and it was an absolute blast!
