Replying to: verdugo (Nov 10, 2009 5:36 pm) My Chrysler dealer didn't have any ADMs but the sticker prices were out of sight. I saw Dodge pick-ups with $40K price tags on them. I can't see paying that much to haul veggies. They must be for those rich suburban farmers.

Replying to: nyccarguy (Nov 10, 2009 8:37 pm) Oh, sure, but it's MUCH more reasonable once you've negotiated your share of the holdback....

Replying to: snakeweasel (Nov 07, 2009 2:51 pm) As for full boat... I've said it before & I'll say it again. When I was selling Subaru, I sold lots of cars at MSRP & the customers knew they were paying MSRP. I'd say somewhere between 40% - 50% of my business was MSRP. These were not STI models or hot cars either... just run of the mill Outbacks and Foresters. I was honest with every customer & started every negotiation at MSRP. The product was worth every penny of MSRP & for those that thought it wasn't, my dealership provided a level of service that was second to none. The dealership where I worked was a really small one in a rural area with a good team of people both working there and buying there. If the customers wanted a better price, we certainly would negotiate in a no non-sense way. We would usually bring out the invoice & show it to them & ask what they thought was fair (Usually "split the difference"). I miss my Subaru customers. If I ever go back into the car business - that dealership is the first place I'd go. |
