A ~15 year old GM with 165K miles still running is an anomaly though, not usually something that can be fixed with minor tuning. If would seem pretty silly to not take advantage of turning in a mid 90s GM with emissions problems for $4500.

I would sell the S for what you can, then trade in the GM like you are planning. $19K sounds like a lot for a S, though I am sure it depends on the options you get. Learn how to work dealers over and you save some money.
