I fell out of my chair in shock and laughter. I asked him:

Me: How much would you give me for my trade, 2006 Evo IX SE Graphite Grey with 16,000 miles? No mods.

Sales liar: $19,500.

Me: Fell out of chair laughing and still in shock. Hung up phone.

I was in such shock I just wanted to share.

 

Friend of mine went to trade in his IX MR with 10k miles on it and hey offered him $22k. Later that week he sold his car privately for 28k...

 

HaHa what a dick when i was getting my oil changed at the dealer the salesman was telling me that they would give me $26k for my car blah blah blah without me even asking.Im sure you could get mid 20's fairly easy for a nice clean IX SE good luck man what cha trying to get after the IX SE.

 

Thanks man, I am actually trying to downgrade a little. Money is a little tight, I was thinking about getting a 2009 Lancer GTS. Then in about two years after I buy a house and get some stuff sorted I will buy another Evo. I love it, it's just raping my wallet at the moment.

 

i looked to trade mine in as well, im at 18k miles, 06 ix se
best they would do is $23k which still sucks,when i owe way more on it

 

Same here.... I want just BS'n around to see what Id get for m car. The salesman told me 24... maybe 24.5.

What a joke... There just going to turn around and sell it or 5k more.

 

i got 26k for my se when i traded it in for my mr

 

What do you guys expect when trying to sell your car to a dealer??! Jokes on you guys for expecting a dealer to give you anything even close to the market value of your cars. Car dealers are here to make money anyway they can... one way is from trade-ins.

Did you guys really expect to get a "good" price quote?

 

I don't expect great prices, but I also don't expect to be raped without lube. $19,500 is totally unacceptable regardless.

 

Welcome to capitalizm my friend. Buy low sell high. Even the Sharks have to feed their family. Check out the trade in value on KBB. That won't lie to you. I'm actually fixing to buy one for around that price.

 

I did check out the trade value on KBB. Duh. $25,500 and that's the standard edition. If you can find one for $19,500, more power to you. But, it will never happen. Go to autotrader.com and there isn't one listed for sale in the country with low miles for less then $27000.

 

My co-worker was just offered 17.5 for his 04 GSR, low ballers. I just got the "buy back lettter" in the mail for mine the other day, not going to even ask how much they would give me.

 

My SE only has 900 miles on it. Wonder what it's worth?

 

man dealers just wanna **** you so bad it hurts your mother

 

they gotta make money some how
