Last week, I traded the C63 in (yes, it sucks but its a short term move) with clear/no-lien title in for a 2012 G37 lease from a MD dealer. I did not use any of the trade value towards the G lease. The trade value was actually more than the sale price/cap cost of the G.

Dealer is saying that they will not cut me a check for the trade until they get funding for the leased vehicle from Infiniti Financial Services which they indicated could be 1-2 weeks. Btw, I was fully approved by IFS in advance.

I can't make any sense of it even though 4 people at the dealer, including the GM, have tried to explain/justify it to me.

Seem right to you?

Thanks.

If the trade in was a totally separate deal than the lease you should have the money.

You should have the money regardless. If the lease is not approved you can return the G and keep the C. If the C is on their lot, you should have your money.

The only thing I can think of is they don't have enough of a credit line to pay you out so they are putting you off until the lease money is on hand. You should definitely have your money based on the facts you provided. They should have cut you a cheque on the spot.

Here's a thread that may be of interest to you. I'm not sure if it is the answer you are looking for, but it may give you some ideas.

Maybe they are waiting to make sure you get the lease because they don't want to fork over a check and then have to give your car back if the lease doesn't go through.

For now it is just a swap of vehicles you are driving until the lease is finalized.
