Should I pay more than Kelly Blue Book Value for a Car?

I'm shopping for a used car and almost all of the cars I see are asking for two or three thousand more than their Kelly Blue Book Value. I've never purchased a used car so is it customary for people to list their cars for more KBB. Should I pay more than KBB or should I negotiate a price close to KBB Value?





For example I'm thinking about buying a 2000 Acura TL 3.2 with 149,000 miles on it. The asking price is $5600. The KBB price is $3,645 for good condition and $4,095 for excellent condition. How much should I pay for this car?|||NO! Especially now during a recession there is no reason for you to have to pay more than what a car is worth.|||You can also check prices on edmonds.com or http://www.intellichoice.com/index.html. Keep in mind there are wholesale and retail prices, trade-in prices. The price of the car also depends on its overall condition, mileage, and accessories added to the base model or the trim line (like GLS, LTD).|||You are looking up the wrong Kelly Blue Book Price. My Kelly Blue Book price is $ 5895.00

$5600 seems pretty good to me.
