Am I wrong to think my dealer is a money grubber? He lost a sale of a new G4.

Take it to Car max and see how much they offer you...

Normally I would tell someone not to bother with CarMax because you'll get low-balled. But if you look at the high prices CarMax is asking for Mirages, you might actually get a decent offer from them?!? CarMax prices are well above what Hertz is selling their Mirages for.

This is how I use Car Max: Go to Car Max and get their offer on car you are trading in; then go to new car dealer and negotiate best price for new car; then have dealer appraise same car Car Max appraised; when dealer gives you lower trade in price than Car Max, show dealer Car Max offer; if dealer won't match, walk away. Has worked for me three times. Have to watch sales tax issue, depending on state you live in.
