If the OP is really trying to get rid of it fast,I'd say check out Carmax and see how much they will offer you,as they give you an amount that they are willing to pay right there.

Actually the price the dealer will give you is completely appropriate. Why should they give anybody top dollar for the pleasure of taking on the work and risk of selling it? You want to get full value then you sit on it and go through all the hassles of selling it.
I know everybody wants to buy low and sell high but when everybody calls dealers "Stealership" for wanting to do the exact same thing it bugs the crap out of me. They are entitled to make some money for their work just like everybody else.
