Default buy back offer

the dealership my family bought my car from sent a flyer in the mail offering a 1000 dollar bonus plus one month paid by the dealer on a loan for trading in my car for a newer model. my question is this. will the dealership offer me less on my car if they know i have put aftermarket parts on it? i have exhaust intake and 2 12 inch subs. all professionally installed but will they be dicks on the offer if they know. because i am meeting with the salesman monday to see how much they can offer and how much more it would be to upgrade to an si. i dont have the time to get everything back to stock and wouldnt want to anyways unless i knew for sure i was upgrading to an si.

Every dealer sends these out so they can move new units.

Any mod you have will automatically depreciate your car ALONG with that 1000 dollar "incentive"...wither away.

I also have some Oceanfront property in Nevada if you're interested.

Assuming that your payment is about $400 a month, that's $1400 the dealership is going to give you towards a new car. However, you will be trading in your car!!! Do you realize what the trade in value of your car is? You'd probably lose over $2000 just on the trade in. So instead of gaining the mythical $1000 you're actually in the hole $600, and now have taken another hit on "new car depreciation" just to help the dealer get rid of last years inventory. Make sense?

They send these to EVERYONE. If you want the Si buy it under your terms, not theirs.
