Replying to: ghstudio (Jan 03, 2009 7:01 am) I noticed that a dealer in Chicago (Infiniti Gold Cost) has a lot of M35X (16 of them) with only 50 miles on each. When I checked the Car Fax report it appears that the cars were titled but never actually sold since the dealer still has them. I am wondering if the dealer did not actually purchase all of these from themselves to take advantage of manufacturer rebate before it expires. That way they can competitively sell the vehicles even after Jan 5th since the dealer's actual cost now reflects the effect of the rebate. The only problem they will have is that these are now considered used vehicles and some consumers will surely use the published KBB prices to try to negotiate a better deal. What do you think? |

Replying to: ghstudio (Jan 03, 2009 7:01 am) That's good advice. But what makes looking at the dealer's computer screen truly validate that the number is valid? Being in the tech field, I can tell you that computer screens can be truly manipulated to appease whomever would be looking at the screen.  I would be so blunt to ask how their "algorithm" is more accurate than those used at KBB or Edmunds. Heck if the guy/gal can't answer that, then they are just saying that they are right "just cuz...".

At the honda dealer, they just brought in the printout and showed it to me. Generally, if they have nothing to hide, they will show you what they are looking at...if you are pleasant and businesslike. If they give you a hard time...you may decide that you don't want to do business with that dealer. I have no trouble at all walking out of car dealer showrooms.
