New cars are already inflated, so they can 'give YOU a deal' and 'let' you talk them down as well as covering the cost of buying the trade-in. It's a double tap, your trade-in is then sold and they recoup the money they lost when combined with the 'talked-down' inflated price.
The air-check takes that trade-in and 'talked down' price out of the equation and they make the air-check as complete profit on top of whatever profit they can talk you out of on the purchase price.
