Question about Trade-ins and financing for ED

BrandonUK03 · 10-01-2008, 11:54 PM

Anyone ever run into any problems trying to do a trade-in on a ED? I mean, can a dealer really give you a fair deal on a trade when its going to take 3 months or longer to do the ED process? It would appear to me like a great opportunity for a dealer to really take advantage of you....

Also, I have read that some people run into problems with financing and the bank wanting the title soon after they make the loan, but since it takes ~8 weeks to get the car back from Europe, sometimes this doesn't work out well...

Anyone have any similar experiences? Advice please? Thanks!

You should do the following:

1) Look at the stickies. There is a very long and informative thread on ED. Don't be lazy - read it.
2)

Edit: Waitaminute - that thread I posted is YOUR thread. Why are you starting a new one when some of your questions have already been answered or addressed? Hmph!
