What I am saying is that if you want to be taken seriously - you have to do more than choose a model and hit "Submit". I know that everybody here know exactly what they want, and the submit detailed requests with all the information, but in real life people don't do that. People will say: "I might buy in 4 months, so just give me a quote for Audi A4", and they get offended if I don't jump over and give them a detailed quote right away.

Replying to: micosilver (May 10, 2008 3:54 pm) Ok, I got ya now. A detailed request for info should get a detailed response. Now, if I were in the biz, that 4 month thing would be put on the back burner for sure. If they're fishing early they wouldn't understand how the biz/product turnover/availability at the time they might decide to buy will be and they probably can't be educated to any of this. When I started via the Internet, I made it clear to the dealer that I was buying NOW. It sounds like this type of buyer shops for cars like they shop for refrigerators. jmonroe
