They get screwed on trade-in because they're basically buying a new car, letting it take it's biggest depreciation by driving it off the lot, and then turning it in after less than a year. Absolutely insane, but thankfully these people are few and far between.

Like everyone else said: a penny over MSRP? Walk away. Wait as long as it takes. The dealer will see that no one is willing to pay that money and drop the price. These aren't rare enough where they have that kind of leverage, and it won't take them long to see it.
Who, whoa, whoaa man, take a breather over there. :happy0180:

It's almost been about to be a year for my ownership of the legacy and knew fully well that I was intentionally going to be trading it away after I got it, but even right now I actually have takers who want my car too. I know I was going to lose on depreciation but not by that much imo. It was the gamble I wanted to take and it looks like to me it will pay off.
