That makes no sense to me. My go-tos for used car values are vmrcanada.com and canadianblackbook.com. They’ll get you in the ballpark.
I’ve never traded in a car. I’ll get a value from the dealership when I order, and end up selling for a fair bit more privately before I take possession of the new car. There have been substantial differences between trade-in and market values for the vehicles I’ve sold.
I got a trade in quote many weeks ago from Genesis for my car, and they didn't need a GV60 VIN to do any of it. It was a shockingly transparent process, they went as far as showing me the screenshots of the rough quotes from vauto.com in Canada, explaining what they do to the car after taking it in on trade and their costs to do so, and also the profit margin they expect to make on trade in vehicles also. I was satisfied with the number they came back with, roughly $5000 less than the average one for sale online and between $3000-6000 less than I might be able to sell for private party (but need to factor in the tax rebate on the trade) and this was on a ~$30,000 trade in also.Has anyone gotten a quote on their trade in yet ? Just wondering what i have to work with but i cant get a quote from my dealer as they say they need a vin for the Gv60 , not sure i understand that since couldnt they just use a vin from a different car if needed ? I just wish i could have gotten this info before slapping down 1000 bucks for a reservation
Worst case you get a trade in quote, decide it isn't high enough for your liking, and you go a different path. I would try pushing your dealer or asking a different dealer to give you a rough trade quote (they won't hold to it exactly without an in person inspection, but regardless).
