Its a gimmick to rip you off! The low ball you on the trade, Pass on anything like that! They don't call them stealerships for nothing.

BMW is trying to do that to me now because I have an '05 5 series with only 12k miles. I get calls monthly or mailings on offers.

No, It's real!!!!!

I would take this offer, or sell your EXTREMELY rare 350Z to someone in Nigeria. Just make sure you send the Cashier check for 10K shipping cost RUSH to the Nigerian shipper.

When you win the publishers clearinghouse, you can just buy the GTR any way.

They want to buy your car at wholesale and then sell you a new car.

Instead, just drive over to the dealership. Go to the managers office and ask every employee to kick you in the ***** 10 times.

yup, it's a strategy they use to make you think "wow, I'm gonna get pretty good money on my car if I trade it in since they want it"---------it don't work.

My Ex, got that for her Civic, apprently the color blue was in high demand and they had none in stock. Went down there to see what they said, and was a setup to buy a new car.

They just want you to go to dealership and give them another opportunity to sell you another car...

If Nissan needs help building their used 350Z inventory, its your patriotic duty to so. God bless Nissan. God bless America.

This is a better description than rip-off. You can't be ripped off unless you sell your car low...your decision.

I started getting these offers regularly 1 month after I bought my car new. The tactic seems more common summer through fall.
