I think the next step is what is the price YOU are willing to pay. Those sites are great at baselining a general value, but you are the individual at the end of the day that has to part with his money.

If I were you, I would determine the number I want the car for (don't forget tax title and license)and provide one counter offer to the dealer. I need it for $XX,XXX -- if you can't do that then I will keep searching. If you can, then we have a deal.

Screw all of the haggling -- you are in the power position, so use it.

Yea, that was my line of thinking. At this point, all I think I can do is get the price I feel comfortable with. I just find it hard to gauge how good of a deal I'm getting. But, no matter what price I settle on, I'm sure the deal won't be near as good as I think it is.
