Seems a little low. But you have to take into account it is a trade in value. 15k is most likely private party. ---

Yea and honestly they are giving you a lot less because they are playing the number game on paper 9k off the price of the car is what they are giving you so in all actuality it’s closer to 6k that your getting for it ---

they went from 9000 to 11000 within the blink of an eye. Im going to tell them another 3,000 for car or off price of car or no deal. she’s not going to bother selling it privately. so either they do a deal or worst case she keeps her gxp, which she doesnt mind keeping really. its a 2012 tdi when the 13 models are out. 9,000 is a joke. 12,000 is what it really should be. anyone on here work for a vw dealership? lol ---

nemer has some shady people working there. my buddy was in there last week looking at a jetta. they told him they’d give him 10 for his trade and he told them he owed more than that. So they guy told him he’d give him 14 for his trade but raise the price of the car 4grand to make up for it. [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/real-trade-in-value/264956.md?page=2)
