Go to a dealership and start working on the Z price, do not mention the trade in.
Once the Z price is down, bring in the trade in and find out how much they will give you for it. If it is less than what you owe (say you owe 20,000 and they offer 18,000), they might roll the remaining 2,000 into your new loan or not.
O'k....Thanks alot for the heads-up advise. Now, should I start e-mailing the stealerships or would walking in be better? I'd like to buy either the graphite or the white w/sports pkg. I really like the persimmon interior, for it's a very unusal color. Do you think I could buy it, for let's say, $200.00 below invoice?
Or is that too far fetched? Now, I'm not sure what to do. Keep the Civic or just go out and get the Z. Tough decisions.
