Agree with this advice to wait until spring. Supply is drying up going into the winter and you have limited means to make a comparison as to whether or not this is good. I actually tracked mileage and price on a scatterplot so i could get an idea of when to pull the trigger on a car. Geeky yeah but i was confident when I purchased.

Also it's difficult to get direction on value as most of the posters are US based and the market and prices are quite a bit less on average. On the upside I've noticed that often the Canadian cars are low milegage due to the seasonality.

Educate yourself over the winter, and be patient.

Best of luck

On a side note, with the down turn in Alberta there are a ton of vehicles available in Edmonton and Calgary as well. Maybe a road trip is in order.
