I used to work for a car dealership as a salesperson and I enjoyed the time there with many good people. However, I am sick and tired of how most dealers are low-balling customers with unbelievable low trade value for their cars. The greediness had destroy the auto business. I am glad you hang on to your F.

I have seen a $21k markup on a 08 M3 convertible trade.(here, in Canada) I just couldn't believe the owner of the car would accept such thing I called robbery . In the past, you mark up a used car 5-7k and after giving some discount you get to make a 2-4k on a sale in most of the cases. nowadays, they want to make 10k+ on re-selling any high end vehicles. Just unbelievable.
