When any buyer at any dealership is presented with a vehicle that is not something he would normally be familiar with (ie something of the brand he sells generally) the very first thing he will do after inspecting the vehicle is to ring one or two wholesalers to get an idea what they will pay. At that point he can start making decisions about exactly how he wants to price the vehicle.
Don't know what I'm talking about? I did it successfully for 10 years and I have done it thousands of times and still occasionally made mistakes that cost heaps of money.
