You Rob clearly have no idea what so ever on how to get a real deal on a new car. Teaching people to tell dealers "Please drop your pants and give me your bottom line price and I promise to think about it" Very effective tactics there super car buyer.
By: almaslc. on 21 Sep 08, 10:32:32
Rob, you are an Idiot. You call that how to enjoy buying a car? Get a life!
By: bberry51. on 16 Sep 08, 20:54:25
see that makes more sense than your initial argument.
By: thangnguyen02. on 16 Sep 08, 20:49:25
it's a brand new 2009 camry le, silver, w/ everything on it from moonroof, spoiler to nav. sys. & tin windows. was asked 26.5 @ 1st, which was ridiculous counting that i've got very good credit. then i got out less than 23 final price, plus 1k+ from financing (tried to give me 6.8%, but finally got 3.9% - on sale thing). so, that's how i figured i got 5 k there.
By: bberry51. on 16 Sep 08, 16:51:11
new or used? Had the car been hit coming off the truck? Did you verify the reputation of the dealership your purchased from? Just saying 5g's is nice, but a company like toyota isn't that desperate to sell a car these days. I find your statement hard to believe.
By: bberry51. on 16 Sep 08, 16:49:15
Gap insurance is like purchasing peace of mind. It's not like you buy it and expect to total your car in the near future. Its insurance!
By: bberry51. on 28 Aug 08, 02:57:42
This guy isn't giving out advise that is new to buying a car. If you are ignorant enough not to read up on market, trade, and invoice prices (which aren't always accurate online) then why are you complaining about not getting your best deal and that the dealership cheated you out of money? I advocate smart shopping, but I am also for keeping everyone in business. Everyone has bills to pay. Don't assume every sales person is a shark. A good sales rep wants to have customer walk away happy.
By: bberry51. on 28 Aug 08, 02:38:32
Keep in mind this is a general example and may not apply to everyone.
By: bberry51. on 28 Aug 08, 02:35:41
In defense to anyone that may say..."Well just sell your car privately to make more money." Sometimes it isn't cost effective to wait to sell your car privately. I.E. If you drive a BMW and want to save money as opposed to spending 1500 or more a month on gas,insurance, etc. If a dealer offered you 15k leaving you with 4 k of neg. equity at that moment your out 4k. If it takes you 3 months to sell the car:1500 *3=4500 you just lost 500 more than if you would have traded the car in at the dealer.
By: bberry51. on 28 Aug 08, 02:27:49
Let me start from the "don't buy anything" section. When customers come in to purchase a car there are situations where customers are upside down on their trades. Like today with trucks and big SUV's. It would be wise in these cases to "purchase" GAP coverage. Gap coverage insures that if the car is declared a total lose before the loan is paid off you aren't stuck paying any negative balance that your insurance company wouldn't cover. Just saying NO to everyone could cost your more long term.

You're kind of an idiot, eh?
By: MitchandBradyShow. on 21 Aug 08, 07:52:39
I would lot drop this liberal hippie...
By: thangnguyen02. on 20 Aug 08, 00:12:46
Again, if you find that's all too difficult to do or cost you too much time/effort, then QUIT. Stop complaining about it. We're here to find a way to find a GOOD DEAL, not cheat you out of business, like the way you guys try to cheat money out of our wallet. I'm thankful for video like this. Thanks. One more note, competitive bidding is really good. It saved me $5K on my Camry from to the price told by the saleman. $5K saved in 3 weeks, not too bad, right?
By: thangnguyen02. on 20 Aug 08, 00:09:09
Isn't that the job a finance manager is supposed to do for a customer, regardless his/her credit. If you think that's a difficult job, worthy of complaining, then quit that job and find something else to do. Also, don't say that GAP or anything is designed to save ME money. That's only a half of it. The other? YOUR profit. BTW, I found them useless.
By: zoommair. on 19 Aug 08, 19:45:52
Many do when competetive bidding is involved.
By: zoommair. on 19 Aug 08, 19:26:21
I disagree about the "ninja salesperson." That's the finance manager and he is in charge of getting a bank to approve you if you have lousy credit or if you haven't gotten a loan already. That's not exactly easy. Don't buy any extras? What about GAP insurance on a lease? What about wear care? Not even extended warranty? Sure, skip the sealants and accessories, but important stuff, especially the warranty, is designed to save you money.
By: zoommair. on 19 Aug 08, 19:15:19
Very good point. A salesperson goes through a lot to get you a car. Buying a car is not like buying a toaster. The Salesperson is not a cashier. He needs to know the product inside and out and be able to communicate that info to the customer. He needs to fill out the paperwork and communicate your wants and needs to management. He needs to prepare the car, get the car if it's not in inventory, and prepare it for delivery. When the deal is done, he needs to be available to answer questions.
By: zoommair. on 19 Aug 08, 18:52:44
I am an honest salesperson. If you haven't found one, you are a fool.
By: dotben. on 18 Aug 08, 07:41:16
Raises wider issues around the relevancy of sales people, and whether when I buy something with my hard earned cash whether I should be caring about the dude on the other end of the deal and his right to earn hard cash. (does my employer/client care about my right to earn cash? and if not, then why I should care when it's my time to be handing out the cash?) I have to say, though, the advice here seems kinda obvious. Standard stuff for any purchase negotiation.
By: FistyHandslap. on 17 Aug 08, 09:25:36
Lulz, this is actually pretty funny, the number of people saying how he's a jerk. First, car dealers make a killing. They screw people over all the time. And if the dealer is getting screwed, G - E - T S - M - A - R - T - E - R! Look, I spelled it out for you already, so you don't have to figure it out, realize you're not nearly intelligent enough, and then ASK! That's how -I- feel about it.
By: timidgothica. on 17 Aug 08, 00:32:44
There are a lot of angry car dealers posting on this video. It's a real shame. And how is calling him a jerk going to make you sound like a credible sales person?
By: csimpkins. on 15 Aug 08, 22:42:41
So then don't sell to him. You're under no obligation to sell to him, just like he's under no obligation to buy from you. If you are selling cars that you're losing money on and getting 'screwed', then you're not running a very good business. Or you're making up the margin by screwing everyone else.
By: MazzThePianoman. on 15 Aug 08, 22:31:38
When you get your loan from the bank include the amount needed to pay off the loan and fully own your old car.
By: AtalayaC. on 15 Aug 08, 18:56:23
They would never sell it at a loss.
By: ahaman85. on 15 Aug 08, 16:27:31
Have you ever heard of the term straw man? No where does he say any of the above. He does says you shouldn't be foolish enough buy add-ons--not that the dealer shouldn't attempt to sell them. No where does he rally against businesses making a profit.
