Default Goodbye S4 hello C32???

Dealer says that he can has a Merc C32 in stock and claims that they only see one every 6 months or so. Haven't really tried to negotiate, and first price he quoted was 61,250-- about a 6 grand markup over sticker. Should I trade in the S4 or wait for the economy to further tank and let him sweat as more C32s come off the boat???

TIA

Default car sales are DOWN, economy is DOWN...

the people who are hurt worst first are typically higher income.

DO NOT pay ONE CENT over sticker right now, you'll KICK yourself later if you do.

Money talks, a real buyer in the showroom is worth more than a supposed buyer.

Default Fair trade in value

With that in mind, what do you all think a fair trade in value is for my '01 S4 with nav, premium, and cold weather packages; mint condition; and about 9000 miles???
