Default Dealer just offered me $10,000 trade-in for my Z!!!

so i need to get a truck for work and i went to the Nissan dealer to look at either a titan or a frontier and trading my Z in.

they offered my $10,000 for it.
it's an 03 enthusiast with 41,623miles.

here are pics of it.



















i really really really pissed me off.

I'm sure the mods are part of what make the dealer try to low ball you. It's a nice car, but not all people will like your mods. I personally think it's very nice.

everything is relative....they offer you 10 for the trade, you offer them fifteen below MSRP for the Titan.

I think you're better off selling it privately & then using that money to buy a truck. Dealerships are very well known to low ball especially on modded cars.

Find another dealer - one who's not a jerk.

Car should be worth high teens, even to a dealer.
