auto world Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 i'm in thecarbiz and buy quite a few cars for myself i'd say at least 1 maybe 2 a year.so when i saw the new is vertcoming out i told the dealership to let meknow when they were there went down on the 15 th took it for a ride.and liked it.now before going there i had mycar guys ( the used car mgr and buyer) find out exactly what my 08 335 vert with 15,000 miles on it was worth.the answe was between 41,000 and 45,000 so i figured 43,00 would be a fair offer.so they had the nerve to offer me 34,000! i said you got the numbers reversed.their appraiser said there's been front end repainting.now i drove this car off the showroom floor with 8 miles on it i knes it was perfect.but i took it to a body shop and mechanic they said the car was almost new.i don't mind them taking a shot at stealing a car but i klnew my numbers. i took it back to my dealership and immediately sold if for the low 40's i orfer the is cause they said the one i wanted was at their ofther dealership and would be here for meon monday the 22, late mongay they called back. tuesday it would be here.tuesday they called. the car wasn't there but they'd have 1coming this week with a bunch of oiptions i didn't need but i said ok.we'll see what happens this week i won'y mention trhe dealer until i get the car.but never again with this guy i had bought an aston marten from his dealership a year ago but this time i'm getting screwed.if the salesman or mgr at my store acted like tiis he be washing cars not selling them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RX in NC Posted June 29, 2009 Share Posted June 29, 2009 Sorry, but I have to ask.... If you have an Aston Martin, why in the world do you want a Lexus IS? That's like dropping from filet mignon for dinner all the way down to canned Spam.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
