If you’re trading in a car to a dealer follow these steps and get an extra $500 to $1500 for it!<\/p>\n

Get the wholesale price for the car you’re trading in. This allows you to have a starting figure and know what the dealer thinks your vehicle is worth.<\/p>\n

Now you’ll know what you can expect to get from your car, but the dealer won’t make it easy.<\/p>\n

Remember, they’re trying to make a profit, and giving you as little as possible for your trade-in is another way they can make money.<\/p>\n

They’ll try to bargain down the price they’ll give you for your car by saying:<\/p>\n

“There are huge rebates on the new ones which affects the secondary market.”<\/p>\n

“That’s a nice car, but we have 6 just like it already on the lot.”<\/p>\n

“Oh, that’s an old body style… they’re impossible to sell anymore.”<\/p>\n

“Wow, this one’s been through the wringer… there sure are a lot of dings and scratches.”<\/p>\n

“Hmmm…it has a lot of miles on it… we’ll have to take it to the auction.”<\/p>\n

Of course, some of these statements might be true, but the dealer is also likely to exaggerate so they can under-value your car.<\/p>\n

How can you fight back? Here are a few tips:<\/p>\n

Have your vehicle professionally detailed.<\/p>\n

Bring all your service records to show the car was properly maintained.<\/p>\n

Make sure everything works: air, radio, etc.<\/p>\n

Put a few new car brochures (from other manufacturers) are in your car, plainly visible, so the salesperson knows you’re shopping.<\/p>\n

If you you follow these simple steps you will guarantee to get more for your trade-in!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
