Replying to: golic (Dec 01, 2008 3:06 pm) They are still moving units at Rover but at a much slower pace and almost non-existent margins. Our pay plan over there was set up to take advantage of large gross margins and not too much volume so trying to make money with no gross margin and even less volume was too tough.

Replying to: jipster (Dec 01, 2008 1:42 pm) I can't say enough good things about the Hyundai considering my son's experiences with his Elantra. Mentioned a long while ago, I helped a friend buy a Sonata. It's every bit as refined as a Camry. Agree about the Mazda 6. It's still in its honeymoon stage. But, I suspect pricing to drop on it in fairly short order, too....considering the general auto malaise. I'm hoping all of you are speaking in jest about Mack. He's still around, right?

Replying to: alejandrom (Dec 01, 2008 7:51 am) Ok so doing an internet search I find one with nearly 10K fewer miles for $4k less to one with 8K miles less for $400 more to one with few thousand more miles on it for $3K more so depending on the options and what he wants it was either a good or a bad deal. Again I will with hold judgement on his actions. |

Replying to: chikoo (Dec 01, 2008 10:25 am) * after $3000 down or trade-in value Maybe there was fine print. The ad wasn't on Monday. If it was there advertised at $14,000 and there was a catch the dealer is getting pretty desperate, and it would probably turn off most potential buyers. Then again, someone goes in dreaming about a new Impala. What I do see on the website though is lease for $149 a month, even that is pretty good but there has to be a catch. |

Replying to: alejandrom (Dec 01, 2008 8:18 am) That begs the question, how do you know he didn't know? |

Replying to: alejandrom (Dec 01, 2008 8:23 am) Wait, you admit that you overprice your cars, then you get upset when an informed customer sees that and leaves?  More and more I lean towards siding with that guy that asked about the Lexus. |
