Abusive trade in offer for my 900

Just wanted to let this serve as a warning to other folks who might be thinking about trading in their later year C900s. After I negotiated the price for my 9-3 we got to talking about the possibility of trading in my '91 C900. I've taken really good care of it, the body is virtually rust free, no dents, few dings, and the interior is great (except for the dash cracks). With newish brakes, and brand new exhaust, they offered me $100 as the trade in. Yep a single lonely Benjamin on a car that could easily retail for $1500. Don't know if other dealers will be quite this bad, but I'll DEFINITELY be selling it privately, just doesn't make sense to do anything else.

'91 900 (worth a hell of a lot more than $100)
