does anyone know what happened to Park Ave Infiniti? it is now Infiniti of Englewood..... did they lose the franchise? i can't imagine that they would sell or not renew a lease on a profitable dealership... my buddy bought wheels from there too....this is somewhat concerning.

In April I purchased a new G35 from Troncalli (Now Nalley) Infiniti in Decatur Georgia. The salesman had numerious salesman of the month awards in his office. After driving the car and discussing color, options etc I asked if there was room to deal and the salesman said yes. We talked some more and the salesman asked what did I have in mind and I said $1000 over cost. The salesman said he could do that further discussions revealed that the dealer holdback was untouchable and what the salesman was talking about was dealer invoice. The car I wanted was the Journey G35 with the Premium package and the XM radio. Well, then we got into that the cars all came with the sport wheels and tires plus $400, and the trunk mat and net $45?, and the stone guards $135, and that there was a $700 distributor charge and a $595 charge for shipping tthe car from the port. And he didn't have a Journey in stock but he had one that was due that day that was perfect except that it didn't have the XM radio in it and I would have to pay $785 for the Xm radio to be dealer installed instead of the $259 dealer cost for XM already installed. I know I should have gotten up and left right then but I didn't. So, he wrote this up showing a total price without the breakout of each item. And I gave a deposit and left expecting the car to be ready the next day. Well, the next day the car wasn't there he didn't know where the car was but he was checking and will call me when he knew something. Finally two days later he called and said the car had been damaged and that obviously I didn't want that one but I had found one just like it but it had Serius radio instead of XM and the installation of XM on that car would require a seperate antenna instead of the "sharks fin" antenna normally used. I asked if he had any alternatives to that car and he said yes he had a car that had everything I had asked for but it was a different color. The only exception was that this car did not have the sport tire and wheel Package, remember all cars only came with the sport wheels and tires. He agreed to adjust the price to reflect the wheels and tires and I accepted this car. So, I this point I believe I am getting a G35 Journey with standard tires and wheels, dealer installed XM radio, stone guards, trunk mat and net, and the Premium package, $700 distributor charge and $595 charge to ship the car from the port. I picked up the car and signed all of the paperwork, note all the paperwork still did not list the options on the car just the VIN number and the total cost plus the taxes. You can imagine my surprise when a few days later I look in the glove box and the window sticker says that this car came with the XM already installed This would cost me $259 vrs the $785 I paid. When I called up the salesman he says the there was an additional $400 charge to bring the car in from another dealer and he just forgot to mention it and figured that the offset would cancel the difference out. When I said he was still $126 off he said the the quality control preson would call me in a few days and to work it out with her. When she called I said I really thought I should get the full $785 for the deception she said she would check into it and get back to me. I have yet to hear from her. I have bought a number of premiun and non premium cars. This is not the kind of deception I expected when buying the Infiniti so I was not prepared to deal this way and it caught me completely by suprised. This is my experience as nearly as I can relate it.

Replying to: atlantabuyer (May 30, 2007 9:48 am) anyway, sorry to hear about your bad experience. Which is the purpose of these forums, to help educate each other about the deals that are out there and the packages and prices of each. $595 to ship the car from the port sounds like a bs fee. isn't that what the destination fee is for. what ive been recommending to friends and people that ask about my car and where i purchased is to get online quotes as well as this site that will give you a break down of prices for each item you want. might not be 100% accurate but give a general idea. i hope it all works out, but i doubt that the dealer will want to refund you back some of their profits. |
