i mentioned my viper deals a few posts ago, bought my first offshore boat thanks to those guyz
 
i also was big in the eastern european suv export craze making huge gross on multi unit sales to flattheaded russian bizinessmen 10k over msrp
 
The central and south americans are still a good source of cash deals 5 k over msrp
 
The Mexicans are buying every wholesale truck for stupid money ( 2k truck for 8k)
 
The locals you need a slick pencil or a big club to catch

i hope edmunds has a huge server
 
just ask one of us carguys will be happy to educate you on our ways.
 
if you are a sheep and have questions about why your supervalue happymeal with extra large diet coke is bland yet filling. I am sure some of the toyonda guys will have the drive thru manager come over to help

when my boss was younger we would have up to 20 cabriolets missing on the floorplan/monthley inventory.
 
 I think he is up with Gene Simmons as far as the # of closes since he started riding mares.
 
 every time i would pull up a cabriolet on the computer to work a deal i would find out it was a demo.

my bil had some brake problems with his previously owned moutaineer he just bought. we went to rd sawyer flm in manteo nc and they took care of him in a about a couple of hours.
they have a gt500 on the showroom floor (only 1 vehicle could fit) and were nice enough to unlock it and open the hood, so we could check it out.
btw they fixed up by bil's moutaineer and took hm out for a drive to prove it.
i love those family dealerships.

And, yes, my lust still runs deep for a Jag XK
 
I have my eyes on a fixed roof e type mkII with a/c.
 
Perfect car Dr owned since new at a estate sale
 
I made a market value offer then was flipped to the Late Dr's brother Rabi Cohen.
 
The Good Rabi (and my rabi) tells me his brother loved this car and if i offered XXXX the Late Dr and his Family and God would Know that the car is going to a nice person.
 
I told him I will meet him in the middle because i thought God knew everything
 
Rabi Cohen laughs and tells me he knew he could bump me .
 
I hope to have the car in a few weeks. it is what i call gulf blue with a factory white painted roof ( because of a/c ?) on period alloy wheels,large cloth folding sunroof with black hides.

I hope Those guys make it
 
 Mom and Pops are going the way of 99 cent a gallon gas.
 
If they did not expand in the past 20 years it is time to close shop and play golf
 
I see the system going to Dealers in the citys,metro,burbs and burgs with off site Service in rural areas.
