This may or may not sound too good to be true, but I’m extremely satisfied with this deal. For the last month I took it as a challenge/hobby to get out of my premium plus and into a prestige. I emailed multiple dealers and usually got crickets, but I got one dealer to bite. I was willing to take a small bath to get out of my premium plus, but in the end it was almost a wash. In the end it was all about the chase and the process for me.
Edit: Dealer told me they are unable to replicate.
That’s just friggin hilarious and awesome at the same time! You probably still had white paint marks on your PP’s tires, lol. Which color did you get? Take it you did not go back to the same dealer?
Now, the real question: was 24 cheaper than 36 b/c of incentives? What was the difference?
Yes. I feel like you think I missed something. If that’s that case please elaborate. If I didn’t trade in my vehicle I’d have to write a check for 7250 instead of 1800.
Exactly: without the equity applied from the trade your DAS would have been higher (ignoring the delta between the two MSD for a moment).
The equity in your traded vehicle is cash-equivalent money. It’s more money that’s going into the actual DAS … it doesn’t come directly OOP like a check but it’s still
Whether the equity was maximized is another critical question during these crazy times when these startups sometimes pay crazy money for trades
