Not sure why you are even trying to use the blue book values. I have never seen them work. Also, the expectation that a dealer will buy or trade for a car w/130k is unrealistic. They get there used cars at auction. cheap. very cheap.
Your goig to have to private sell to get close. And the problem here is financing. the guy with 7k in his pocket is going to get a car selling for 10k private.

a piece of the equation to consider. Parts for the acura will be more expensive than parts for the honda.
