I'm new here too but I wouldn't do any trade until you actually know what you want. Take some test drives, make the dealers work for their pay and be patient. We were looking for a manual V8 and wanted to pay less than $40k. Settled on a series II VE and then started looking hard. We got a VE with less than 2000kms, Walkinshaw performance pack with full exhaust, lowered, short shifter, sunroof and a few other niceties shipped from WA to the eastcoast for less than our budget. Only thing we didn't get was bigger wheels but we got plenty we didn't expect. There are bargains to be had if you look hard enough and don't jump at the first "great deal".
