Replying to: dino001 (Nov 08, 2009 6:09 pm) I really like your theory. That is why I think all these salespeople are taught to try and charge MSRP on all ups. The attitude is "What's the harm in asking". The harm is your credibility has just gone out the window. I'd like to know how many cars are actually sold at full MSRP? I bet almost none, and yet you are willing to risk your credibility because your sales courses tell you to do this, and your sales managers tell you this is how to sell a car. I think you are starting off with a negative if you start at MSRP - I know I better look out for my best interests so my defense system is working at full power. I think it is just a starting point to get you into payments that you can afford. We have to charge you full MSRP, but, look at your low payments, just $300 month so who cares what you are paying for the car...just look at the easy payment plan? |

Hi, I am going to NewYork city and Detroit this month for some conferences and so I will have spare time . So , are there any car shows there that I can visit? I have never been to one. But after joining Edmunds I am very much interested in going to one. Here in Texas we dont have too many car shows and I have never ever been to any car show.  In Texas I dont think there are any car shows-maybe a rodeo style truck release event with all cowboys and then driving the truck in dirt soil or a rough road with pebbles etc  So what places do I visit in Newyork and Detroit? And in Detroit can I visit any GM/Ford/Dodge plants? Are we allowed a tour of these plants?? Where are the car shows in these 2 cities? Thanks.
