There's something called the "art of the deal". One of the most common forms is to keep the trade in price up and the price of the new unit up too to offset the overallowance on the trade. No such thing as a $9k Saab 9-5 trade in with 100k+ miles, that's just not realistic and exceeds any common guide, KBB, Edmunds, you name it.
I could give you $10k in trade and still discount a 9-5 $4k. Doesn't sound too bad on the face of it, but in reality the trade is inflated and the deal on the new 9-5 is so so, there's as much as anothe $5k to be had in discounts. 100% extra for your trade, sounds better than another 10% off the new car, if you fall into the "trade proud" category.
