I don't think market value is quite that high though.  I bought a very clean 
97 with 62k miles for $8k.  Shortly after that I saw a very similar one sell 
in my area for the same price.

There are enough of them on ebay that after awhile you can get a feel for the 
actual market value.  You have to knock out the low bids that never reach 
reserve, and also the ones with a reserve that is too high.  The ones in the 
middle are what you can expect for market value.  What the book says is 
market value doesn't mean anything unless you find somebody to buy it for 
that.  Likewise a smartalec that offers $4k is not establishing market value 
at $4k.
