So, I just went to Longo Lexus -- the #1 Lexus Dealership in the U.S.A. -- to get a price on my new 2008 IS250.
*No exaggeration, I promise*
I was greeted in a friendly manner, starting with "Would you like something to drink? :D "
Well, anyway, so the guy I spoke to was Asian and he spoke the Asian-English, which wasn't a problem.
The problem was, he spoke so fast, and was repetitive, I literally began to have a headache after 30 minutes.
Yeah, I was there for about five hours...... MIGRAINE :cries:
Anyway, so they were trying to get me the best deal on it, and you know: "No one beats Longo's prices"
However, I had a quote from a different dealership, and they said that the quote was already "agressive" for them.
The sales manager comes out and slightly lowers the number and says that that's the best they can do -- and that they'll be making $500 from this.
I get a voicemail and it's from the other dealeship. They brought the price down even more!!!
I told them that I need a better price than this and THEN, they started to become frustrated.
It was so obvious that I was giving them a hard time, because they began sweating at their foreheads *lol*
The sales guy's voice became louder, and he spoke even faster, and I was DONE.
The Persian manager, started becoming upset and DEMANDED my "final price."
He explained that I am dealing with the "largest dealership with the BEST SERVICE
in all of the United States." He guaranteed that I would be happy with them.
Since I was so tired and ready to leave their ugly desparation, I gave them the most
ridiculous price that even LONGO can't beat -- Yup, they couldn't beat it *lol*
The manager slammed his file together and yelled, "I can't beat that price, it's a $2000 loss!!!
Thank you for coming and please GO HOME!!!!" and stomped away from the desk, leaving us stranded.
This was heard throughout the sales floor and of course, EVERYONE turned around.
In a cool fashion, I thanked the sales rep for his time, who didn't shake my hand and rolled his eyes.
As I walked out the automatic sliding doors of the dealership, I purposely said to my boyfriend
(who was next to me the whole time) loud and clear, "WOW, what was with THAT attitude??"
30 minutes later, the sales rep calls me and leave me a message:
"Hey, it's me again! I have GREAT NEWS for you Call me back!!!"
HA!!!!! F K U!!!!!!
Now, I cruise around in my hot Lexus IS250 which I leased from Lexus Santa Monica
I couldn't stay away from them. They are SO professional and close to my house.
If you want the "BEST SERVICE" on the Westside, don't go anywhere else :chairshot:
After all, as a Lexus owner, you deserve the best, right?? ;)
** And if you DO want to go to Lexus Santa Monica, e-mail me and I'll refer you to an awesome sales rep!!!!
